Fruit Adventure Game Review

Fruit Adventure Game Background

This is a timed food-themed platform game where you play as a strawberry. Move around the level and unlock the button at the end. Collect stars and stomp on any enemies you may encounter.

How to Play Fruit Adventure

Left click or tap anywhere on the welcome screen to load the level selection screen. Select a level number to begin.

On the desktop, use the arrow keys to move. Press the left and right arrows to walk. Press the up arrow once to jump, and press twice to double jump. On touchscreen devices, arrows similar to the ones on the desktop will appear on the bottom row. Tap on the left and right arrows on the left corner of the screen to walk. Tap on the up arrow on the right corner to jump; tap twice to double jump.

As a strawberry, move from one end of the level to the next and reach the button before the timer runs out. Avoid or stomp any enemies you might encounter. Pick up the key to gain access to the button at the end. Press the button to beat the level.

Upon completing the level, you can choose to return to the welcome screen, restart the level, or proceed to the next one.

Basic Gameplay Advice

The game has 8 levels, which are unlocked sequentially. You can replay any of the levels you’ve previously beaten.

You earn points by collecting items, stomping enemies, and performing actions:

• Stars are worth 25 points each.
• Enemies are worth 100 points when stomped.
• The key is worth 100 points.
• Opening the barrier to the button is worth 100 points.
• Pressing the button is worth 250 points.

Your points carry over from one playthrough to the next. should you die at any point in the level, you will not lose any of the points you’ve earned so far.

Enemies patrol the level on the ground and from the air. In both cases, the only way to beat them is to jump and stomp them. Enemies will not actively chase you, but if you touch them you will lose a life.

You start the game with 3 lives. Each time you hit an enemy, you lose a life. Lose all your lives and it’s game over. Each time you die, you start again at the beginning of the level.

You can encounter the following hazards in each level:

• Spikes
• Bottomless pits
• Crumbling platforms
• Falling chocolate bars

Unlike with enemies, hitting or falling into a hazard is an instant game over.

Advanced Playing Tips & Strategy

Chocolate bars that drop will often form a stable platform over spikes. However, they are only activated when you try to jump below them. To drop them, jump forward a little bit but return to the platform you were previously on as quickly as you can. This will trigger the bar and force it to drop down. In some levels, this is your only way of creating a safe path over a pit of spikes.

Observe your enemies before you attack them. Some enemies move in a predictable back and forth pattern, while others swoop toward you from above.

Because the points you earn are retained even if you die, there’s no real reason to try and collect all the stars. Collect them only if you want to.

Educational Aspects

The game is a platformer, which hones hand-eye coordination and improves motor skills.
