Fruit Ninja: Puss in Boots

The original Fruit Ninja is a swipe-based slash ’em up — you slice fruit and avoid bombs. This cash-in thankfully enables you to turn off an Antonio Banderas soundalike’s tedious voiceover and delve into the survival high-score mode from the original Fruit Ninja and a new mini-game Desperado mode.

We love the latter’s breakneck pace and variety, although we finished it during our first go, and subsequent plays show up this collection as being shallow. It’s a pity developer Halfbrick was hypnotised by DreamWorks’s cash, because a deeper Desperado could have been a fantastic Fruit Ninja sequel.
