Our take on Fruit Salad
Its defining mechanic is the chain of fruit combinations: dropping two matching pieces together produces the next larger fruit, turning container placement into the central scoring loop.
What is Fruit Salad?
Fruit Salad is a physics puzzle in which fruit is dropped into a container.
Matching fruit combine into the next larger type, progressing from cherries to a watermelon while points build toward a high score. Classic mode provides untimed drops and Steam leaderboard competition. Survival adds a countdown, with successful matches granting extra time. Arcade gives some dropped and matched fruit special properties that activate when combined. Daily Salad supplies a changing sequence of fruit drops each day, with the same sequence available to all players for score comparisons.
