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

    Fruit Ninja is a very fun and addictive game and easily the best one available on the smartphones right now. The concept is easy: Fruit appears on the screen, you're a ninja and ninjas despise fruit. With the touchscreen you can slice through the hated fruit which causes the juice to smear the walls. This game is amazingly satisfying to say the least.

This game is amazingly satisfying to say the least.

    Graphic-wise it's alright, but the walls are very boring and no matter how many new wall you unlock, there will never be anything colorful until you smear it with (disappearing) juice over and over again. It just begs for a little more color. Talking about the unlockables: those are quite pointless as well. Nothing that affects gameplay it just changes the background and the color of your sword if you meet a certain quotta.

    Fun and addictive, but nothing to deep.    … Expand

    It's fun and somewhat addictive. The simple gameplay makes this perfect for casual gamers, but it won''t satisfy the more hardcore gamers in the same way. All you are doing is slicing fruit with your finger. It's satisfyingly fun to rake up a high score and watch the fruit juice smear on the background. It's pick up and play nature makes it perfect for gaming on the go. Casual gamers willIt's fun and somewhat addictive.

Casual gamers will find this to be near-perfect and hardcore gamers will be able to appreciate and have fun with it. I enjoy it but I can't help but wish that "Fruit Ninja" had a little more meat to it.… Expand

    This is my favourite mobile phone game. I always end up playing it for half an hour and my battery gets low! Truly addictive and I would recommend this game to anyone at all.

    A very fun simple game of chopping fruit with your finger and trying to get the highest score you can! There is now multiplayer which makes the game even more fun! You can unlock new backgrounds, blades, etc. A solid buy for .99 cents.

    Like what grandpajoe6191 said, it's fun and enjoyable for a brief period of time. Slicing fruits that fly across the screen proves a good challenge and addiction, it's just dragged down by monotony and repetitiveness.

    I like chopping the fruits while evading the bombs. I like the multiplayer mode rather than the main game. I would likely recommend it to you. If you are an IPAD fanatic.

    "Fruit Ninja" is a simple and addictive game for young and old. It doesn't have levels or such so you can probably won't get bored as you can repetitively play as much as you want.

    Simple,fun and addictive. A game that can be played very quickly and a match takes about 1-5 mins. With all unlockable stuff and scoreboard it becomes very addictive game. Recommended for all ages.

    Fruit Ninja is a fun, simple addictive game that is a classic, like Angry Birds. There's no story, but a game where you hack and slash for new blades and achievements doesn't really need one. Story wise, there is a small one saying Ninjas hate fruit, now make Sensei proud by destroying it but look out for bombs. There's three modes, Classic, Arcade and Zen. In Classic you're out by eitherFruit Ninja is a fun, simple addictive game that is a classic, like Angry Birds.

Story wise, there is a small one saying Ninjas hate fruit, now make Sensei proud by destroying it but look out for bombs. There's three modes, Classic, Arcade and Zen. In Classic you're out by either missing three fruits or slicing a bomb, but there's no timer. In Arcade, nothing happens If you lose fruit, but bombs take away 10 seconds from your time. Theres also bonus fruits in these two modes, like Freeze, Frenzy etc. In Zen mode, there's 90 seconds and nothing damages you, and no bombs. Blades can be unlocked and are unique and challenging to unlock, such as slice a certain amount of Freeze Bananas in Arcade to unlock the Freeze Blade. Backgrounds can be unlocked with the same concept. But it, its only $1.00/£0.69.… Expand

    What is the bloody point of this? Its boring and repetitive of fruit nonetheless? Most phone games I just can't understand. its like phone game devs say "Hey people are stupid and will play anything and we'll rake in money in ads" Its just not a very well developed game. Its only good appeal are children and casuals.

    This is my favourite mobile game ever, because you have Arcade, Zen and Classic mode that makes you addictive for manymany hours, especially the arcade mode! When you are completing a round in one of these modes, you will think everytime: "I can do it better than my highscore", and that makes you more addicted. Sounds and graphics are perfect on this mobile game.

    Classic Android/IOS game. It's not good, it's not bad. But it satisfies your needs. After all, I do reccomend you check out this game since it emits some funniness for quite a while,

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

    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.

    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.

    As simple and fun as Fruit Ninja evidently is, it feels like a Wario Ware game isolated for a single release.
