Fruit Ninja® Reviews

Me and my cousins used to play this game all the time. Me, my sis, and my two cousins would get in teams of two and try to be a higher level. So much fun. I play this game a lot. There are so many game modes and there’s one that you can challenge someone else and the screen would split in two then you would try to slice more fruits and get more points.🍓🍑🥝🍉🍊🍋🍌 My favorite mode is the arcade mode because there are three fruits with special powers. One freezes the timer and makes the fruits fly through the air more slow. The other one makes tons of fruit start flying into the screen and the last one gives you a certain amount of time to slice fruits then it doubles your points and adds them to your score. I love this game so much and I play it on my iPad Pro because it’s much more fun on a bigger screen. Last thing, it’s awesome how you can change the color of when you slice the fruits and you can change the background. The slice color I’ve always done is the rainbow one. Not only is it really pretty and has some sparkles but it adds 75 points to your final score. Definitely recommend this game!!👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻😍😍

Fruit ninja played by Bella and Fiona. This game is intense! You got the berry blasts, bomb apprentice, and of course the peachy time. The double lemon slices are immaculate, the most intense part of the game. When you see these lemons pop up and cut them precisely, your Body fills up with joy. “Double Lemon slice” says Bella, after we sliced both of those lemons. Then we have the pomegranate, the big daddy bomb of joy fruit. The pomegranate is exquisitely brilliant. You have to slice that big daddy bomb as many times as you can, until that little big ball of joy explodes and the juice spreads everywhere. The modes. So many extreme modes are available to you, zen, arcade, and classic with premium boxes of fabulous prizes. Arcade mode throws bunches of fruit across the screen for clawing. Freeze time frenzy where the time freezes and you slice away. This game will leave you at the edge of your seat jumping for joy. You will also get way too excited sometimes and hit those darn bombs! I can not thank fruit ninja enough, it has changed my Personal Finance class for the better

It has been years since I have played this wonderful, diverse, stunning game. This new, updated version brought back beautiful memories of competitive and casual gameplay, in the simple yet expansive concept. I am loving everything so far!!

One thing though, I’m not sure if it’s just me or if it’s intended, but the XP system is a bit inconsistent at times, where sometimes small amounts of XP don’t increment as much as other times on the progress bar, especially with completing missions. This makes it take an incredible amount of games to level up, around the level 20’s or so.

Still, that doesn’t bother me too much with this fantastic gameplay. I cannot stress enough how much this game never ceases to amaze, with the various gamemodes to play and events to look forward to! This game is 10/10 for me, would recommend!

I used to play this game year ago and I remember it being much more developed. There’s no challenge or “duel” anymore. I mean, they are there but you can’t play them which is a real bummer. I used to have the cherry blossom blade and the matching dojo which I got easily enough with some hard work but now it seems that the only way to get those is to buy a box which is really annoying as the gems takes a long time to get. I downloaded the game again three days ago and I obtained the water blade but when I came back the next day, it had disappeared! I even leveled it up (which doesn’t do anything??) which means I spent for nothing. I did get the cloud dojo yesterday and it’s still there but I wish that the water blade didn’t vanish... If I could change anything, I would definitely add another way to get the blades and dojos more easily. I’m only at level 10 right now so it might get better but I’m not all that hopeful... hope the game can be improved so I can play it like I used to as a kid! If you’ve read this far, thank you for your time and I hope this way helpful. Have a good day!

This game went from a “Haha, slice the fruit and collect star fruit to buy special swords!” to a game that is filled with advertisements and the fun of the game is just gone. Halfbrick made the game into a total cash grab. Most of the blades powers is gone now and just says “coming soon”. They removed the dojos and removed multiplayer. If Halfbrick made a separate game where you can cough up some money to get the “classic” version, I’d pay about 1.99 for it. Now the game is all about you having to BUY the currency and buy the blades, which are all the same because they don’t have their powers anymore. I read some other reviews from people, they said they connected their old account, AND ALL THEIR STUFF WAS GONE. Luckily I don’t have to go through that pain because I don’t know what my old one was since I forgot it and I changed my emails and passwords numerous times. Please Halfbrick, PLEASE, get a bot to stop answering the reviews and put actual people. If you care SO MUCH about money, then I guarantee you, you guys’ll make the same amount of money, if not more, if you just bring back/make a separate app for the CLASSIC VERSION. PLEASE.

Fruit Ninja is a game everyone played as a child in the 2010’s. Everyone loves it or has at least heard of it. I decided I’d download Fruit Ninja again because I just wanted to see everything I had and everything I liked about it. I read the reviews while I waited for it to download and when I went onto “Most Critical” I found almost all of the reviews were recent. They said there was a terrible new update and that everything was ruined now. I was intrigued and tapped on FruitNinja . I connected with my old account and went to my blades, they were all still there but all of their powers were gone. For example, the Cherry Blossom Blade would add cherries into your rounds but now under blade powers it just says coming soon. Multiplayer is also gone, which is disappointing because me and my brother would do multiplayer together when we were younger but it’s no longer there. The game kept adding update after update just to make more money and they finally ruined their game. I won’t be deleting the game because it’s still fun in a sense but I’m definitely disappointed.

I would like to see more progression like you have in fruit ninja 2 the progression and selection of characters with customization is really cool. Unfortunately I don’t like how I can’t play it a lot because the events have to refresh. That progression would be really nice to see more. Like more to do please. Thanks! I would love more multiplayer modes cause those are really fun. I have loved your game for years so everything you guys have done have been amazing. I just want to see more to do to keep me playing instead of getting bored. Like characters, avatars, maybe blades, power ups, and maybe like characters with different abilities like in overwatch or apex legends where who you play is a big part of how the game works. Your blades are awesome!

I have simply LOVED this amazing game! It’s even on VR! I understand all of you have had constant crashes in this game, but inside this game is complete glory! All of the modes are great, but I think the cherry blast mode could use some improvement because it’s simply IMPOSSIBLE to not explode the X bombs! Fruit Ninja is an awesome game and I simply have loved it ever since I got it or at least got first glance at it. My improvement could possibly be some more updates? This game barely updates and I truly am very disappointed about that. I know some of you love this game and some the opposite, but the last thing you should know is to bring back FruitTron! FruitTron was in the VR game and still is, FruitTron launched fruit that you had to slice and it was so fun! I don’t have a VR system myself, so would you mind updating? I hope you enjoy the adventures of Fruit Ninja, and write a review for any questions or concerns.

This game was really fun to play before it had its newest update. It’s basically ruined the game and here’s why. First off there’s gems in the game now and their mostly impossible to earn. The only way to get them is to buy them with real money. Second is that the blades don’t have any special powers anymore! The only thing their cool now is that your blade will look unique which is pretty useless for the THOUSANDS of people that spent YEARS working on getting every blade, and even if they had powers you’d still have to get them using gems. The third thing is the game reset ALL OF MY PROGRESS!!! even though I didn’t have all the blades before the game reset it happened to other people with way more blades then me, and everyone works enough for this game. The one star reviews are literally the same as the four star ones! In conclusion I would’ve recommended playing this game more if the makers of the game didn’t ruin it. I would love to see my progress back and have this game be better...

Congratulations on making it 10 years Fruit Ninja, it's really nostalgic seeing the game I use to play when I was younger turn 10 years old. However, these changes I could care far less for. You have completely changed how the game works; removing blade and dojo abilities, you have redone the progression system entirely, and you have overhauled the original game by redoing the models and textures. Instead of making a fruit Ninja 2 or 3 or whatever -- you completely remake the game inside the original game! On top of all that, you're removing our ability to play the original by locking behind a 2$ paywall! Completely low level of you Halfbrick. Completely.

You guys make great games, don't get me wrong. But this, this 10 year anniversary for Fruit Ninja itself, is done in the most downright dumb way possible. I can say, now I'm terrified for Jetpack Joyrides 10th birthday.

The new update is hot garbage, to be perfectly honest. It very clearly was unfinished and totally rushed to be put out on the anniversary and it really shouldn’t have been. Every single blade and background has been made effectively useless, nothing more than an aesthetic piece that doesn’t help with gameplay. There are also far more random crashes now than there used to be. I had a big one that prompted me to make this review; I was doing really well and then got a large combo and I assume the amount of animations with all the fruits cutting and the blitzes going on overloaded the game and it crashed. I lost all data from that game off a but that did not exist until this update.
The update pretty much ruined the game and got rid of every single characteristic that used to make it fun, and replaced those aspects with bugs. It’s disappointing. Two stars for nostalgia and a small amount of hope, because it can only go up from here.

Overall this is a fun game. I like the powers of the blades and the different dojos. However, while I have only one gripe with this game, it is a pretty major one. When using any blade other than the original blade (the one you start off with), the blade animations begin to gradually appear on the screen as you play the round. For example if I were using the pixel blade, more and more pixels would appear on my screen. And once the round ends, when you’ve hit a bomb or dropped too many fruit or whatever, the animations don’t go away. They’re there for every single game you play after that, and the only way I’ve found to get rid of them is by closing the window. The animations block your view of the fruit and make it really hard to avoid hitting bombs. Why is this feature there? Is it a glitch? I find this annoying and unnecessary and I hope it is removed as soon as possible.

I loved this game, it was fun and my favorite was arcade. I loved the rainbow blade and pixel. But now? I can’t even get the blades anymore. I can but it’s almost impossible to get gems to buy “boxes”. It was so simple and fun before this update. I also loved the challenge and duel you had back then, but hey, let’s remove that too! Now there’s not as much fun. I liked the fact that I earned the blades. It takes forever now just to get one. They also removed the mini games. I miss that too. I don’t know if it’s there or not but, it’s just not fun anymore. I got a silly water blade that doesn’t do anything. What’s exciting if you can’t play with more different colorful blades? What’s exciting if you can’t play mini games when your bored of the same mode? What do you earn in this game now? You could earn levels which would give you blades you could also earn. But now there’s nothing to earn or gain anymore. I miss the fun :(.

What if you made a new version of this game where these get sliced👉🏼🦠 and maybe it’ll be kind of cathartic to slice them and feel like one is destroying them or something like that. I don’t mean for this to be in any way offensive or insensitive, I just know a lot of people are cooped up at home and maybe even anxious so a new version of the classic ninja fruit that is therapeutic or cathartic might be nice ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Again, I’m not trying to be insensitive or rude or offensive just an idea I am in no way suggesting profiting off the chaos, just the opposite, I am hoping this might make people feel more at ease but if it’s a dumb idea and it will just add to the tension and anxiety then discard this review. I like the classic game I played it a lot growing up.

Congrats Halfbrick one of your most popular games Fruit Ninja is ten years old now!!!

But, here’s the deal with the whole remaster thingy. I know you’ve spent quite a bit of money and resources on these upgrades, i get that. Even still the game isn’t as good as it was before. I thought the simplicity of the pre anniversary update was great and nostalgic. But now most of the things added aren’t necessary at all. I don think anyone cared that the fruit didn’t look like fruit. Nor did anyone really ask for pointless changes in the game.

To top it all off..to get the nostalgic classic experience you need to pay a $2 fee. I don’t think this was the best choice, and tons of people agree. I doubt you’re going to go back on these changes, but just so you know..it wasn’t the best idea.

I literally spent 5 bucks on a the chainsaw blade which gave me +10 critical each watermelon sliced. A bit overpowered but balanced, hence the reason I bought it because I love aiming for high scores. You greedy people literally took the power away from a blade I bought with real money to hide it behind a loot box I’m sure because there is no other explanation! I had to double check to make sure because it made me so mad. I wish I could get a refund and spend my money on a developer that wasn’t so money hungry! Half brick you should be ashamed of yourselves! Passing this off as a cheerful 10th anniversary update and then scamming hundreds of players out of money by taking away blade powers many people spent money for or spent hours grinding for! Adding lootboxes aka slot machines and adding blades that can only be purchased with money! Countless of ads! Purposely stripping blade powers to resale via lootboxes! How much money is enough greed brick!?

Ok ok ok the new update is cool and all but when I first logged in it said I was a level 1 at first when I was a level 15! I’m all like ok I’m about to delete it but then it went back to my profile so that’s a weird bug. Also if you have any blades from the older version it says max level which is cool and all but you have no powers it just says coming soon...This game needs 4 more updates one for the first log in your account 2 for having blade powers and 3 for challenges come back and 4 events to come back because I’m about to get the yo-yo blade. I would say IMO I would get this game but don’t get any blades till the next update got it? Alright stay safe.

I love this game so much. Nevertheless, I still think it needs some improvements. For example, Why don’t I show up on the scoreboard? When I scroll down on it I only see players which are not me. And I went all the way down to the bottom. Please fill me in on that ASAP. And why all the ads? They are SO time consuming and more than half are about “Kings Choice” and whatnot. You know, Kissy lips, love, balloons as babies, jail because of fake love, the “(Blah Blah) I love you let’s get(Blah Blah)married “ BORING.😐😑😶 If you keep this up, I will have to get rid of Fruit Ninja! Partly because of the ads, but also because my mom hates ads, and I haven’t told her because I’m waiting for an answer from you. Otherwise, nice game!

In the past month, my progress in the game has been reset back to level 1. Halfbrick Support said the bug is the game generating new guest ID’s. They have restored my account, but it keeps happening! It’s happened 5+ times. If this happens to you, use the support link (tap the cog settings icon, and then the “profile” button, then the support link in the bottom right corner) because this will create a message with data about your individual game at the end. This issue seems to be fixable, but be warned you may have to keep contacting them multiple times like I have.

Normally, I like FN quite a bit— I dislike the amount of ads, especially for pharmaceuticals, and that certain content is paid-exclusive— but lately I’ve spent more time communicating with Mads and the support team than playing. I might just delete FruitNinja . Such a shame.

Happy anniversary!!! Omg its been 10 years since you change the world! i wish you all the best.
