Drop adorable fruit to merge them and create even larger fruit in this cozy physics puzzle game!
The objective is to merge falling pieces of fruit to create larger fruit and rack up points. The core loop involves dropping cherries, oranges, watermelons, and other fruits into a container. Combining identical fruits forms the next larger fruit in the hierarchy, triggering a satisfying "pop" and progression.
When two identical fruits collide or touch, they automatically merge to form the next larger fruit. For example, two cherries combine into an orange, two oranges become an apple, and so on up to the giant watermelon. This creates a sense of advancement as players build up to the higher-scoring, larger fruits.
A key aspect is the physics-based fruit movement. The fruits have tangible weight and realistically bounce off the container's walls. This allows players to strategically angle their drops and use the walls to create chain reactions and combos. Carefully positioning the fruits leads to efficient merging and high scores.
The game offers several distinct modes: Classic Mode lets players take their time dropping fruits without a timer, aiming for the highest possible score. Survival Mode starts with 30 seconds on the clock. Scoring merges adds more time, creating a race against the clock to see how long the player can last. Arcade Mode introduces special "power-up" fruits with unique effects, such as exploding bombs or slowing down time. Combining these can lead to chaotic, high-scoring runs. Daily Salad provides a daily challenge where all players receive the same fruit drop sequence, enabling competitive leaderboard comparisons. These modes cater to different player preferences, from the relaxed Classic experience to the high-intensity Arcade challenges.
