The suave fruit-slashing swashbuckler, Puss in Boots, faces a challenge that would make Sensei proud. Worth checking out if you love the original game or if you can't get enough of Antonio Banderas' smooth Spanish voice.Įn garde! Fruit meets fairytales in the juiciest iPhone game this year - Fruit Ninja: Puss in Boots! Instead of trying to rock the boat, Halfbrick Studios embraces Puss in Boots entirely, giving Fruit Ninja fans new to chew on. The stigma of being a movie tie-in is often one of having tired game concepts quickly exploited for the sake of having something on the shelf. It's fast-paced and for the first few play-throughs the novelty of it all is amazing. Some levels have you splitting a giant fruit up ala Pang others make you cut fruit amongst a hail of bombs while some let you play a sort of modified three-match game. The trick here is that each level has a specific requirement to fulfill that's complicated by the completely unique way in which the challenge is presented. Players need to survive 12 levels in a row with only three lives on offer. Once you're done with that you can move on to the new mode that bears a striking resemblance to Arcade skill shooters including games like Point Blank. There are some changes to the mode, including new 'patterns' and the inclusion of a bonus 'magic bean' from the movie. Of course those who just want to slice fruit can get their fill in the classic mode dubbed 'Desperado' (yes, I'm sure the name was no mistake). Then again, it should be no surprise that Puss in Boots works with Fruit Ninja (he is a swordsman after all), but the real magic of Fruit Ninja: Puss in Boots is in its new mode, 'Bandito'. On almost any other day of the week I'd be happy to sympathize with the swathes of gamers who rally against movie tie-in titles, but every now and then a developer manages to make it work for them.
