Fruit Salad

Fruit Salad — Casual

Swipe to slice flying fruit - but never touch the bombs.

The short version: waves of 2-4 flying items with 5% bombs, and everything is tuned so a good run is earned rather than gifted.

If you have five spare minutes, Fruit Salad will fill them. Everything happens on one screen with waves of 2-4 flying items with 5% bombs, and the whole thing runs straight in the browser - no downloads, no sign-ups, no fuss.

Fruit Salad, round by round

Swipes are free-form - a long slashing drag can catch three pieces of fruit in one motion, and that is how big combos happen. The gesture also has a cooldown per fruit, so waving the finger around randomly scores less than one committed slash.

Who Fruit Salad suits

The loop is deliberately compact: one round takes minutes, improvement is visible, and the next run is one tap away. That makes it a reliable filler for short breaks - and an easy game to recommend to someone who 'does not really play games'.

How to play

1. Press play - fruit starts flying in from the sides.
2. Swipe across fruit to slice it; chain slices in one drag for combos.
3. Never touch a bomb - it ends the run instantly.
4. Three missed fruits also end the run, so stay sharp.

Tips and strategy

• Slash in one committed line; waving the finger scores less.
• Cut clusters bottom-up so falling halves do not escape.
• Bombs follow fruit - pause a beat when a wave looks too crowded.
• Combos come from one long drag across three pieces, not three taps.
• Let a high arc fall into range instead of reaching for it early.

Who it suits: A good fit if you like games that are easy to start and honest to master: no tutorial, no menus to learn, just you and the board.
