    Fruit Ninja is fun, fun, fun. It's an instant pleasure and one you can find yourself hooked to, determined to post the highest fruit-murdering scores on OpenFeint or Facebook.

    Fruit Ninja is the sort of game that has come to typify the rising dominance of quick, simple and most of all additively fun gameplay that's great value for your iDevice.

    It's cheap, it's undemanding, and it's perfectly suited to the platform it's on.

    The game is fast-paced and simple (the only way to fail is to miss three fruits or accidentally slice a bomb), and the inclusion of online global leaderboards adds a little extra incentive to boot up the game when I'd otherwise be bored.

    It's simple, fun and best of all challenging.

    Fruit Ninja is the perfect casual game that I thoroughly enjoyed. While there are minor problems I stated above, it's an overall solid appearance on the App Store and one that casual gamers shouldn't miss.

    Next time you're waiting for a haircut, cut up some fruit while you wait. It probably did something to deserve it.

    "Fruit Ninja" is very fun and enjoyable....for a brief period of time; it gets too repetitive like "Angry Birds".

    It's an addicting game, very fun on mobile. However, there are a lot of in-app purchases preventing me from giving it a 8.5/10. It's at most, an 8/10.

    Nice little mobile game. I miss good little high score games like this. They should put this on Switch.
