Fruit Ninja® for Negative User Reviews
✓ Record broken for quickest review I’ve ever leftI downloaded the app because I own it in VR and I was hoping for a holiday themed event. I wasn’t disappointed by this, however I’m disappointed by the app’s inability to properly operate on my brand new iPhone 13. This is a two week old iPhone and I downloaded fruit ninja today. The ads don’t bother me, it is what it is and I get that the developers need to make money. But after you watch an ad, the app freezes. Recently it’s frozen during attempts at free redemptions, so I stopped trying to redeem freebies. But just now I had a score of 1200+ and opted to watch an ad for an extra 10 sec. Well this was a mistake. This is the second time it’s frozen on the pause screen…and I’ve lost my points entirely because nothing on the screen works. I can’t hit the back button, I can’t continue, NOTHING. It’s a cute game, one I’ve been playing for over 10 years, but it needs work. Your app shouldn’t be freezing on an updated brand new phone. I’ll be uninstalling I guess?.Version: 3.23.0
✓ Good game but needs some improvementsI 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..Version: 2.8.8
✓ No updatesIt’s like the app hasn’t been touched by developers in a long time. The 2 ‘coming soon’ events have never happened, the ‘high scores’ are not updated - they also say ‘coming soon’. You can’t earn different blades or dojos, only pay for some new ones. You can ‘upgrade’ your blade and dojo, which is pointless because any effects are perpetually ‘coming soon’...there is really no point to playing this game now..Version: 3.1.0
✓ Why i don’t like this game anymore!So we can all agree we hate ads! Well i just started to play this game and already annoyed on how many ads are on it and sick of them, it just stuffs the game when you can continue to play by watching an ad and it sort of defeats the purpose of competition not to mention who the hell has the time to watch the ads, they just go for ages and just annoys me, iv been deleting games because of ad spam and just simply had enough and this game is one of them so iv deleted it.Version: 3.10.0
✓ Update sucksI was enjoying this game and owned like 4 swords, then the update happen, I can’t play it without internet anymore. I lost all my swords. That seriously screwed up my experience..Version: 3.0.0
✓ Ain’t the sameCan’t even get the powers/abilities on any of the blades and dojo’s, not even after levelling up to level 15. Used to get a new blade or dojo with each level up and it would actually have an ability that you could use, now just pointless items. Not the nostalgia I was looking for, doubt it would be yours either..Version: 3.2.3
✓ Ad TroubleFirst of all, I want to say this is a great game. One thing really bothers me is when it requires to re-start another game, users are given two options. First watching ad without paying money; second, pay for the game without ad. Totally understandable the second choice, however, when I choose the first option, the ads is just never ending. No matter what I touch on my screen and I even didn’t see any exit button or options. It’s a little bit money but I just want to say since the developer gives user no pay option, why could you improve the quality and follow the rule to make user’s life much easier? So hard or just want to force user to pay for it? Think about it..Version: 3.23.0
✓ Longtime fan turned off by adsAfter buying Fruit Ninja years ago, I’ve been a firm fan of Halfbrick and bought practically every game they’ve made (including the Kinect titles!). However I just don’t enjoy Fruit Ninja in its current iteration thanks to the utterly ridiculous number of intrusive ads. I’d happily pay for a premium ad free experience - these days I feel like I’m watching ridiculous videos and waiting for the close button to appear as much as I’m actually playing the game..Version: 2.6.3
✓ Look. I watch ads, then you push more in my face.I love this app, I really do, I love slicing and playing in events but the ads. The ads are fine, but once I watch them there’s always a pop up forcing me to either watch and ad or buy ad free. I get it that all games can’t not be corrupt for once in a while but this is so frustrating. I watch an ad for a power up, then I have to watch more. If you want a higher rating, don’t force me to watch ads,.Version: 3.33.0
✓ It’s sad..I remember playing this a while back and I thought I would give it another try and I came back and played one zen mode game and I had like 2 ads before and after I can’t believe that this game has been made into another one of these....Version: 2.8.6
✓ Update troubleI havent played in a while but i used to play all the time during my commute. Ive just opened it today to find that they have “updated” the game by cutting out a lot of parts that made it enjoyable like the ability to change the backgrounds and blades to get different power ups. You would play to earn stars to buy the backgrounds and blades but now you cant what are you playing for? This is most likely to make room for the “HD” fruit but cutting that stuff out didnt do much because my game now lags.Version: 3.0.3
✓ 10 years is exiting and all, but..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..Version: 3.0.0
✓ Why..? Just why..?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....Version: 3.1.0
✓ Just..... whyFirst Monster Dash, then Jetpack Joyride, and now Fruit Ninja!? Come on you guys! You ruined 3 great and memorable games with forced ads, wait times, and/or micro-transactions that are not even needed nor wanted )=<.Version: 2.8.9
✓ Decent game sold outThis used to be a decent game, however it has caved and become like most other common apps, you have currencies and you have in-game purchases. That doesn't bother me too badly, however, putting unskippable ads on a game which costs money to download is an atrocious, greedy feature for the sole purpose of making continuous money.Version: 2.5.4
✓ Played my whole life - ads ruined itI never leave reviews for apps, this is maybe the second I’ve ever written, but I felt it necessarily to say something. I am 24 years old and I’ve been playing Fruit Ninja since I was 11, in 2010. It was my favourite game, it’s still one of the only game apps I have on my phone. However, in recent years, I’ve been receiving an ad after every. Single. Game. It would be fine every three games, even sometimes every two games, since the games can last for a while. But after every single game, when you play Arcade Mode exclusively like me, it turns up as one ad every 90 seconds. It renders the game almost unplayable. It’s ridiculous and very saddening to see. I understand the devs have to make money somehow, but an ad every 90 seconds is deplorable..Version: 3.27.0
✓ Pay to play game....How much more to say....Version: 2.8.6
✓ BugThere’s a bug where the power ups don’t work correctly during events.Version: 3.2.0
✓ Bring back the old versionDevs, if you could add a mode that reverts the version back to before the 10th anniversary, that would be greatly appreciated. I remember having a ton of fun with the old version but this new one isn't that good. I think you should just add a button in the settings to convert all gems back to golden apples and revert to before version 3.0 and the 10th anniversary. You could also make this into a paid fruit ninja or one for apple arcade, with permanent events, no ads or microtransactions, and the old features like blades having powers, dojos having powers, golden apples, minigames, and CHALLENGE MODE. Please actually respond to this and don't say something like "We're working on these features and will soon put them in the regular game" or something..Version: 3.28.0
✓ Who does this?They forced us to watch ads…..Version: 3.28.0
✓ It used to be betterI installed it because I wanted to feel the nostalgia, but it’s just not there. There is two “coming soon” things that doesn’t say when I get to use them. Every time you level up you would used to get a new blade or dojo, now you just get power ups and star fruit. I’m at level 9 and I only have water blade and the cloud dojo (that doesn’t even do anything because “you need duplicates to unlock the power of the dojo”).Version: 3.1.0
✓ Another game ruined by adsI have loved playing this game for many years. Unfortunately it now plays an ad after every single game and you have to wait around for a good 15 seconds before you can click an elusive ‘x’ in the corner. I paid for this app many years ago to avoid being slowed down by ads - I often only have a few minutes to play, so invested thinking I’d be able to play back-to-back games. It’s ruined the experience for me 👎🏻.Version: 2.6.2
✓ Absolute atrocity. Update ruined it.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..Version: 3.10.0
✓ What the heckI am so annoyed! After finding out that there was a small cost by getting charged, I go to play the game to find out all my progress has been deleted! I am not starting all over again despite how much I liked the game... very disappointing indeed..Version: 2.6.9
✓ HmmThis version is awful… why change a classic ? You can’t get the blades from star fruit anymore the power ups now cost 150 each that’s a bit steep ! The feature after a game that asks you to continue after watching an ad is very annoying as you have to wait to skip to play another game, and the bombs seem to always explode even when you don’t swipe the side of the screen they’re on… they need to stop changing games that never needed change..Version: 3.6.0
✓ Very good but one problemI absolutely love this game! I play it all the time and I never get bored. But I get really annoyed when it says “watch an ad for this”. Normally I wouldn’t mind. So it will let me watch an ad but then after the ad is finished it will say “ something went wrong. Try again later” and not give me the reward. I don’t mind with 10 second ads, but for two minute ads it is really annoying. When you could have played TWO arcade games. I would really appreciate this bug to be removed. And it is not my connection because ads need constant WiFi to play so it is clearly just a bug..Version: 2.5.9
✓ No PowersBlade and Dojo Powers gone for over one year now. Still says coming soon..Version: 3.20.0
✓ Began To Get Worse Over TimeFruit 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 the app. 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..Version: 3.1.0
✓ Why did you change it again!I’m only giving this two stars because you changed the whole game.l Liked it way more before!now it’s just no.i wish you haven’t had changed the whole entire game!i used to love it now is just bad quality even the blades are worse so pls change it back!.Version: 3.12.0
✓ Too many adsHand.Version: 3.33.0
✓ RIPYou need to have WiFi to play this game... Why? All you do is slice fruit. Along with that, everything is locked behind a paywall. What the hell did halfbrick to to this game..Version: 3.21.0
✓ New update...The new 10th anniversary update has completely ruined the game it’s lost the old fruit ninja feel and everything is locked behind boxes and all that junk which should never of been the case the rules where get starfruit for blades that was basically the whole Point of the game play and unlock things and this new shop system has ruined it, It’s honestly saddening that we have lost and old classic..Version: 3.0.3
✓ QThe first time you have a chance at the top is the second one you get a free pass and you can go on your way back and then go to your car to pick it out of there so I don’t have any money for that and I can get it back and you could get a ride home or something and I could just get it to the bottom and you could go back and pick up your bike or you could go get your car or something and you can just drive back to the bottom or something and you could go pick up the bike or you can just ride the bikes or you could just ride your bikes and then go back to your house or you can just ride with you guys and you could ride your car or you can go back.Version: 3.19.0
✓ Good but disappointing after the update.This app was good before. I was almost about to get all the blades. The mini games were fabulous as well! I also remember getting the king dragon dojo after a hard and unfair tournament battle. However, all that effort went to waste in the 10 year anniversary update. Now all my progress is gone! Now you have to earn blades and dojos by loot boxes, which is a dumb idea. They cost gems which cost, you guessed it, money. You even had the audacity to remove the mini games! Please make it easy to get gems and re-add mini games please! P.S. At least I didn’t lose my high arcade score of 1500+..Version: 3.7.0
✓ Used to be goodUsed to be such a good ad with less ads! Now every time you finished a game there is an ad! Non stop and some of the ads are too violent for a 4 years old! I don’t think it’s appropriate for 4 years old to watch these ads! Please censor those ads or change your the age recommendation.Version: 2.6.6
✓ HiiOk.Version: 2.8.5
✓ The update.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 :(..Version: 3.2.2
✓ DodgyApp pastes data from the clipboard on launch..Version: 3.0.0
✓ What Happened?I used to play this game all the time with my cousins and friends, always competing to get better levels and scores on the different game modes. Before I re-installed it today I had been playing the more recent Fruit ninja (Fruit ninja 2) which is actually not that bad. The only reason I stopped playing it was because I had got bored; this is becuase after completeting all the missions you can't do any frenzy, zen or classic modes until they come out again. That ruined it for me. So then I thought I'd re-install the original. Loved this game and I still do but again there is nothing to do. The events are 'coming soon' the challenges are 'coming soon' the multiplayer mode is 'coming soon' but all of these modes where still in the game and playable when I had it years ago. Please make these gamemodes 'come sooner' because I miss the fun of this game and the hardwork payed off the purchase the dojos and blades. Thanks..Version: 3.0.3
✓ DisappointingI love fruit Ninga as its sel but I hate the quality for the iPad I have it on my phone and it's fine but on my iPad it looks like it should be for and iPod like you have to zoom in to see it and even then it's all fuzzy I would recommend for phone but not for iPad sorry x.Version: 1.8.1 (226)
✓ Ongoing issues keep resetting the progressIn 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 the app. Such a shame..Version: 2.6.7
✓ Horrible updateIt is very disappointing as the new update is highly incomplete. Many of the features that where already in the game such as event mode are now locked with a “coming soon” title. What is the point of an update that essentially removes all the features from the game? I understand they are trying to rebuild the game, but as of now the game only consists of the bare basics. The update should have been released when it was more developed, but now they have left players without all the features they had access to right before. The new graphics are also worse in my opinion, the aesthetic of the game should resemble the old fruit ninja as it’s a childhood classic for most people. If you download the game as of now it will have the bare minimum and graphics unlike the way it was..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Keeps resetting and have to start over and over againLike the game but, every time I get between level 20-30 it resets.Version: 2.6.9
✓ Sold OutIf you want to watch a completely irrelevant 30 second ad after ever game then this is the app for you. This was a great game that is now just too clunky with too many options, only works when you have an internet connection, and of course has in app purchase options. Just annoying..Version: 2.6.5
✓ I paid for things; why did you take them from me?I bought this game manny years ago. When the paid version just eliminated adds and gave some minor bonuses. I got the ghost busters sword, when it was a seasonal event. I later found that they removed it not only from my inventory, but suggested that I never got it. The second thing they took, was the ‘great wave’ dojo/background... why? Was it that I wasn’t logging in? Am I being punished? Then the prize gold sword at the end of a seasonal event. I played this between classes and intern clinic patients! And I won it! -and again; it was TAKEN from my account. As if I never won it. With the ghost busters sword, I belive that I had complained and got an email telling me that it was only available during the seasonal event. What about the dojo backgrounds? When I had stopped playing I had owned all the dojo’s, and all the sword (outside of seasonal events), so why have they now been taken from my account? Why is justified to take someone’s money, and not only alter the very thing they had purchased, but to also eliminate all their progress and earnings?! I enjoy the game, but the points I’ve outlined amount in my own mind as theft! A betrayal of the trust I placed in HALFBRICK as a company. No apology, no compensation. Not even acknowledgement. It’s insulting! Just the suggestion that their customers mean little more then money to them..Version: 3.0.3
✓ WAY TOO MANY ADSWhy isn’t there an option to buy the game and remove the ads FOR GOOD?? They are so obnoxious and literally CONSTANT. Halfbrick you have ruined this game with your greed. Give us the option to turn off the ads - you’ll still make money if we’re buying the game. Otherwise it’s almost unplayable with how many ads there are CONSTANTLY interrupting you. You can’t even really skip past them. The worst..Version: 2.7.10
✓ Predatory Ads and Power UpsI used to play this game years ago and really enjoyed it. Now I can only give it two stars due to changes for the worse. Pros: Still has classic, arcade, and zen mode which are objectively fun. I like that it’s a game with finite timed rounds so you don’t end up wasting an entire afternoon. Cons: the Ads are gratuitous and pop up at weird times after rounds of play. Also, the buttons that should silence, skip, or close ads are suspiciously buggy and tend to take you to the advertiser page no matter how carefully you tap. Also, when you earn a power up, it is automatically turned on, which just seems designed to force you to “accidentally” consume power ups at a higher rate and increases the likelihood that you’ll pay real money for them when they run out. Also, blades and backgrounds have no powers! Half the fun of the old game was mixing and matching just the right combo to achieve mission objectives. Also the current missions seem lame compared to the old ones. Not to mention that collecting blades seems stupid slow, whereas in the old game it was pretty straightforward to level up and get more blades. Playing with the look of different blades was a big part of the fun, but now I’m stuck with like 3 lame blades and no powers. :(.Version: 3.16.0
✓ This games makes me pooBRING BACK THE OLD FRUIT NINJA!!!! 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈GAY RIGHTS 😡😡the new fruit ninja is homophobic and mean. Okay have a nice day May god bless. 😁♥️🙏.Version: 3.12.0
✓ BadSuch a bad game I don’t know who made it but it’s bad.Version: 2.7.2
✓ New update :(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..Version: 3.0.1
✓ AdsI paid for this game why on earth do I have to watch ads 👎.Version: 2.6.10
✓ Everything is locked behind a paywall.If your more than happy to play a game with ZERO progression, this is the game for you. Out of what would be more than 40 dojo’s and blades to use, roughly 6 of them are available from levelling up. The rest is locked behind a paywall. What used to be a fantastic game that once set a benchmark for mobile gaming has become another pile of trash that isn’t worth your time..Version: 3.1.0
✓ EIt’s ok but there are to many ads and not much content..Version: 3.33.0
✓ Why do I have to pay for everythingI love the game so much, but please I’m asking you to make the blossom blade and the matching background freeze and I don’t need to find it in a box if you will add the developers will listen to me I will be happier than you can imagine. It hasn’t been three years since I’ve played this game and it’s changed a lot. Please make it so then some of the more popular blades like blossom blade and other ones free so then we can all play in Harmony and I don’t need to even write this PLEASE. To get the attention of the people who made this game everybody start writing reviews to make the Blossom blaze and other favorites for free! A lot of us don’t wanna pay a penny so you better give our iconic blades back to us!.Version: 3.7.0
✓ Can’t see the fruit.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..Version: 2.6.6
✓ Age difficultyWhen I try to open the game it asks me to put my age in, I can’t seem to enter my name! It is probably just a technical issue but I have played it before and it was actually a great game! Very entertaining 😄.Version: 2.8.8
✓ A bit disappointedI 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!.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Good but the adsThe game is pretty good and probably worth getting if you’re willing to deal with the ads. They’re not even the good ads that take 5 seconds and have the big X button, it’s the ones that take 30 seconds, another 5 on top, and have the smallest buttons ever. Seriously I don’t enjoy having ads crammed up my rear end every 30 seconds. It feels like it’s more ad then game. I DONT CARE ABOUT FISHDOM!!! You have one of if not the most iconic games there are, right next to clash of clans, jet pack joyride, temple run, and hill climb and you seriously wanna ruin it by advertising one of the worst games there is. Honestly. It’s sad. This company makes millions a year and you’d think they would chill out on the ads. How you bouta have an advertisement carry your users out of YOUR GAME. The disrespect. That’s like me owning a company and having another company come into my establishment and carry my costumers to their store. It’s pathetic And also… WHY DO YOU NEED MY LOCATION!! At least tell the user you’re tracking them.Version: 3.28.0
✓ What happenedI may be crazy but I’m sure when I played this in the 2010s you could play fruit ninja with no wifi, why change that.Version: 3.28.0
✓ And there goes another one..So like Jetpack joyride, fruit ninja is yet another game that has lost its appeal since its creation. I’ve played this game on and off for many years, and I’ve loved it. However, all the progress I have built up has just disappeared, which is disheartening. It’s a shame that its going through all these pointless changes, and intrusiveness of ads. I get money makes the world go around but you have ruined a classic..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Seriously?These reviews should be showing you how bad you messed up. Can’t believe you took away all our perks..Version: 3.0.1
✓ Too many adsYou have to watch an ad for every single game..Version: 2.7.2
✓ Taking away my tokens from the event modeEvery time the app change the mode like Christmas , new year and Easter modes it will always take all my tokens that I earn until 0 tokens before the app haven' change to new year mode I had 1093 tokens then the mode change , when I check my tokens today it has all disappear . I took all lots of time to earn one thousands tokens then you just change a mode I lose them all . I hate this problem this happen twice when I purchased the app please solve this problem . Just keep my tokens when there app change the mode . If you don ‘t do it I WILL DELETE THE APP AND REPORT YOU !.Version: 2.6.0
✓ OkOk game. Did get boring after a while but usually I delete a game after a month. Love the sound affects and colours. Overall, good job to the developers:).Version: 2.6.12
✓ I don’t feel it.Before the 10th Anniversary update, I use to play the game all the time especially arcade, it was so fun and addicting that I was able to stay up all night playing it but it changed... I don’t feel the same after the big update, it lost it’s spark for me, if I wanted to play this 10th anniversary edition, I’d play FN2. All of the classic things and features I knew and loved changed into this “better” version, it feels disappointing playing it, now I don’t play the game at all, I suggest adding a classic mode within the settings where the game reverts back to how it was with just Classic, Arcade and Zen game modes besides the others since the game changed but yeah, unless the game reverts or has a mode like I suggested, I’m staying away from the game I once loved..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Waste of timeIf you want any new blades or dojos you have to buy them with real money still haven’t found a way to get them with out spending money. Very very disappointed.Version: 3.3.4
✓ Very disappointingI used to play this. It was simple and great. I’m happy to pay for a good game and just play it. Bit they’ve sadly devolved into money-grabbing and I cannot now leave my son to play it without a. Inch of complicated screens and ads all popping up repeatedly. How much do you want? Seriously just give me an option to pay for the game once and never be bothered by ads or buying new blades or any of that nonsense. I don’t want to have to constantly intervene while my son is trying to play the game..Version: 2.8.7
✓ Lost everythingJust logged in lost all my levels and blades and dojos. Bruh..Version: 2.7.2
✓ Too many adsHave to watch a ad after every game. Recommend not downloading..Version: 3.21.0
✓ Too many ads!I loved playing this game as a kid and thought I would re-download it. The game is still fun but the ads are extremely annoying! I usually don’t mind ads, but when an ad pops up after every game it makes you go crazy! I would love to play the game offline to prevent ads, but it doesn’t run without wifi ☹️.Version: 3.23.0
✓ Incredibly laggy and glitchyThis game is fun and addictive, but it is very glitchy and laggy. Thankfully it hasn’t been ruined by ads every two seconds, but it has constant lag spikes and will crash constantly. Please fix this..Version: 3.5.0
✓ What happened to this game?Used to play this game for hours. Ridiculous ads and micro transactions (vs accomplishment rewards) have ruined it. Yikes..Version: 2.8.8
✓ Help please!I got this game and I loved it! But then I got locked out of my phone and I lost my account. If you could please help me get my account back then that would make me change this review and would be much appreciated. I know my username, but it won’t work. Please help me get my account back!.Version: 2.7.4
✓ Very disappointed with the updateI was happy with collecting star fruit and purchasing new blades. Now it looks like it’s a game of chance which I heavily dislike. It almost no longer feels like fruit ninja 👎.Version: 3.0.0
✓ NEGATIVE 100 STARSNew update won’t let you play unless you’re connected to wifi???? Also, no more special power ups from your sword and screen???? What the heck happened? Give us back the old version..Version: 3.0.3
✓ Update ruined itI loved fruit Ninja! But then one of the updates to the game ruined it. First of all, when you first play it, you only start at classic mode, and second, all the game modes were locked! I just cant believe it really happened; To unlock Zen Mode, you had to reach to level 2. Zen Mode was my favorite game mode, and now that one update ruined it. PLEASE FIX AND GET RID OF THIS THING!.Version: 2.8.0
✓ DisappointedI’m playing on the XS and the game still crashes every third game. This game is not doing well for how much it’s charging for its content..Version: 2.6.12
✓ L halfbrickI aint even gonna hold u boy this app trash now i cant even exhale without getting an ad that ratchet and nasty asf keep yo nasty filthy disgusting sour adds to urself and what happened to getting them blade for doing tasks now i gotta pay my hard earned money yall acting like its easy to be the breadwinner. boy yall nasty for that this game be worse than visiting an abandoned daycare with no shoes on and wearing a pair of tight khakis boy this game trash now i used to enjoy it but now its like a chore to play.Version: 3.28.0
✓ I MISS THE OLD THE ONE THE NEW ONE IS UNCLEAR!So when my family got that first iPad, you know the thick charger one. We were all pretty excited. We got a few games, one of them being Fruit Ninja-it was an amazing game, we all loved it. Updates came, it was still great. New iPad, still fun. On my birthday I got my own iPad and just recently I remembered Fruit Ninja! I got it, I was super excited-THEN the whole temple thing came. I was still fine with it-until I had to slice the fruit a totally new way! Don’t get me wrong the 1, 2, 3, point Stuff is good, you can challenge how quick your brain is-BUT the instructions are horrible. It never ONCE tells you about the point stuff so I kept losing and had no idea why! I kept re-reading and reading and it made no sense. Just yesterday my friend figured it out; but seriously, please fix the instructions..Version: 2.6.6
✓ :(I’m sorry this is good but I have complaints: The ads are frequently coming on and are so annoying. The tournament is near impossible and to get really good stuff u have to pay!!.Version: 2.7.2
✓ Why did the game makers think it was a good idea?!I used to play this game all the time. It was all I used to play when I was younger and it was really entertaining- a way for my parents to keep me quiet. The other day I was looking for something to download to keep me occupied, and I thought why not. The game has been ruined!!! What with new updates and different modes, several ads. 75% of the time playing this game I’m watching ads! Not the mention the lack of enjoyment while playing this. It’s just boring. The power ups ruin it as well. The updates just get worse and worse. I’m really disappointed and upset that people LIKE this, it’s probably because they didn’t play it before these updates. Probably going to delete it, frustrated. The only reason I gave it two stars was because effort has been put into this game, but not enough for it to be good or at least what it used to be..Version: 3.8.0
✓ Good but at a costThe game is absolutely great in areas, but when doing the season challenge things I was at one and it wasn’t clear what I had to do, So I failed every time, and with every time I got an ad for an extra 10 seconds, it’s definitely not worth it because it doesn’t even give me the thing I needed which was the golden dragon fruit it only gave me strawberries and bombs, so I got robbed, I’m not even kidding, it made me so angry I broke my glasses and cried, and it doesn’t work with out internet which adds insult to injury.Version: 3.10.0
✓ Exceedingly disappointing with publisher and Apple.Within hours of getting her new iPad, my disabled daughter managed to purchase ‘gems’ that were offered at the end of the round she was playing. Ask to pay was enabled and neither halfbrick nor apple are willing to refund, which was sought immediately. Apple points to halfbrick, halfbrick points to apple in the hopes you just give up and further enable their dark patterns and further profit. Disappointing..Version: 3.17.0
✓ MadAbsolutely love this game but everytime I stop playing it for a few days it resets all my scores and levels and I have to restart all over again and I’m not impressed. Would appreciate if my mastery was not wiped everytime I have my busy life and can’t be on my phone 24/7 thankyou..Version: 2.6.12
✓ Miss the Old Fruit Ninja (CRASHES SO MUCH!)Does anyone remember the original game? Not all this hababaloo with all the added crap. Which ultimately crashes the game every other game -.- So I just bought a brand new iPhone 7 and I started playing this game thinking that it would handle it sooo much better than my old 5S. And at least I can kind of play the game.... I still hate the whole “unlock the blades and buy them with star fruit”. It was sooo much more satisfying to unlock a new blade/dojo by getting 3 combos in a row or slicing 200 pineapples. Now it’s just, “here, save up and buy this...”and I can deal with that, I admit. But it’s the constant crashing of the game that drives me bonkers!!! I’ll be in the middle of a game, or just ending it and BAM. Crash. And everything I just did is lost. It’s ridiculous. Get rid of the added crap that slows it down and just give us a reliable fun game..Version: 2.6.10
✓ Resetting by itselfI’ve recently downloaded fruit ninja again to see if it is something I still enjoy playing. And I did. I was enjoying all the different game plays and how to earn star fruit and apples. I really enjoy it. Until one time, I was on level 9 and it decided to reset itself. Logged in on my app and the next thing I knew I was back to level 1. I was gonna give up but I was really enjoying the game. It’s a great way for me to past time. So I played it every so often that I’m on level 22. I just logged in now and it says level 1 AGAIN!!!! I lost all my star fruit, my apples, my dojo and my blades!!! And yes I connected it to my Facebook and I still have nothing saved except back to level 1. Please fix this because from here on out, I won’t put effort in the game that will just reset on me and waste all the time and effort I put on it..Version: 2.6.12
✓ They don’t make em like they use toBack then fruit ninja cost money thus meaning you would get no ads and it wasn’t pay to win or to get new swords but now with the update, the game is a shell of what it use to be. This isn’t fruit ninja anymore, it’s like every other game nowadays..Version: 3.33.0
✓ AdsDespite it being the iconic game it is the ads were unbelievable. A pop up appears and says remove pop up ads and pay $2.99 to get rid of them or it gives you another option that says “I love ads” and makes you watch an ad. It is so dumb to phrase it that way as it makes you feel obligated to pay and I know that you have to be a special kind of stupid to actually pay for mobile games. After that I just decided to delete it and play a rip off version (which is way better) that has no ads. Unless you want to lose players, I would recommend that you limit the amount of ads cause there are so many or don’t put any at all..Version: 3.28.0
✓ ReviewToo many adds and no level update.Version: 3.28.0
✓ AnnoyingLike the game but when it comes to the tournament,it's really hard to defeat the player as more bombs appear when it's my fruit then when it's the players. Also the player never seems to miss a fruit and the player gets more fruit which equals more points! I made it to last person but it's near impossible to beat them. Can't make any mistakes and you have to get big combos every time.Version: 2.3.3
✓ It’s good but what the hell have they doneFruit ninja is a very good classic and I’ve been play since I was around 5 over the years I’ve been playing and playing but then I took a big break for about a year AND THEY HAVE COMPLETELY MEST IT UP it was simple before you had to slice fruit and level up get cool blades but now it’s you have to level up and sometimes you don’t even get a blade and now there’s a money and you have to use it so if there company reading this please fix this mess that you made because I love fruit ninja it’s ok now but please make it better.Version: 3.17.0
✓ Fun gameplay hampered by ridiculous amount of adsThe basic gameplay of Fruit Ninja is solid and enjoyable, a fantastic core game and I have really fun doing it. Arcade and Zen are my favorite forms. Around the gameplay…? That’s where the issues starts. Play a match, get offered to watch an ad for 10 more seconds to raise your score.. mildly distracting but you can just say no, right? Well, a lot of the time an ad pops up, and not only is it an unskippable ad but it’ll take you to the app store to buy whatever program when it’s done. Unavoidable ads that take you out of the app! These are horrible and harm the experience. There’s so much pay this for that upgrade, pay that for that update, it’s too much as-is, but add such intrusive automatic ads on top and that took off 3 stars from my rating. *edit* To be clear, the problem is not ‘has ads.’ Free apps are gonna have ads. It’s ‘has frequent unavoidable ads that take me out of the program and to the app store whatever I do.’.Version: 3.12.0
✓ Can't believe it?!??It was fruit ninja 2 and now I can't open the first fruit ninja either... thet both shut off now!! I blame the recent updates for both games and I want it fixed so I can play fruit ninja again!!!.Version: 3.1.0
✓ New update shows greed from devsI 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!?.Version: 3.0.3
✓ DisappointingI played this game a couple of years ago and I really enjoyed it. After revisiting it recently I was disheartened to find what half brick had done to it. You used to unlock blades by doing certain tasks in game (ie. getting certain scores in different game modes) with no micro transactions attached. Now it’s just ads and pay to unlock galore. After what they did to this game and jet pack joyride, I have no longer think that half brick can make good games like the ones they used to make..Version: 2.6.13
✓ DisappointedDeleted the app for a few years and came back very excited to play again with all the pretty blades, but i found out you can no longer buy them with starfruit and have to buy them with real money…. so disappointed.Version: 3.20.0
✓ Internet is requiredWhy would I need internet for what was a game that did not require internet disappointing for such a iconic game.Version: 3.28.0
✓ Not workingI got the game and was so excited to play and then when I clicked the app it didn’t load it would play the sounds but stay at loading screen so I can’t play whatsoever I hate it..Version: 3.33.0
✓ Was way better in vertical modeHaven't played in a long time. Decided to download again, but it sucks in horizontal mode. Deleting 😕.Version: 2.5.5
✓ The bladesThe old version of fruit ninja was sooo cool but the update came, the blades had no power anymore.Version: 3.1.0
✓ Way to ruin a perfect gameSo, the game starts well and let’s you play, but soon the ads start appearing after every single game. This is unbelievable. I know it’s free, but still it just ruins the game atmosphere. Initially the ads were limited to getting something extra, and played only when you clicked them. Now they just auto play as soon as the game ends. This is extremely bad taste in the app design. I really hope they fix it. It’s such a fun game otherwise, sad to see it being turned this way..Version: 2.8.0
✓ Please fixSo laggy after the update, did the game company go broke?.Version: 2.5.5
✓ Used to be betterWhen I first got into Fruit Ninja, it was quick, snappy, lightweight and fun to play. Over several revisions it has accumulated so much cruft and “features”, a constant barrage of for-pay add-ons. But it’s the ADS. When I first got the game, it was like every five games, had to hit an ad. Then it was every other. Past two years or so, after every game. And HORRIBLE ads you CANT LEAVEwith almost non-functional close/continue buttons, while the games gets slower and jankier. When you spend more time watching ads than playing, that’s just wrong. And then dangle, pay up to kill these wretched ads. Casual games are supposed to be relaxing, not infuriating. I’m out, finally deleted it. It was fun … while it was fun..Version: 3.28.0
✓ Revert back to the classic fruit ninjaHello, I am a fruit ninja fan but now I’m not really feeling the fun addictive game it used to be Most things require some sort of new way to play like idk dragon fruit one mini games and stuff like that This game in giant fact is ridden with advertisements no one cares about them just remove them guarantee you 1/10 of the time playing is tuning into an add/s. please turn back to the non greedy fruit ninja we all once loved and don’t leech off customers money. It is utterly disappointing how a once striving classic became I pile of steaming hot bs ridden with in-app purchases many adds and a whole lot of complexity Please become the developers that we all want a developer that can change the game to something great again..Version: 3.1.0
✓ I’m not big on this 10 year anniversary update..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..Version: 3.0.3
