Halfbrick's 'Fruit Ninja' Named App of the Week, Available for Free

by

fruit_ninja_iconFruit Ninja, the fruit-annihilating game that’s been downloaded by millions of users, is currently available for free as part of Apple's "App of the Week" promotion.

The game, which originally launched in 2010, asks players to use intuitive swipe gestures to destroy fruit while avoiding bombs. Fruit Ninja has had a number of updates since it was released, adding a variety of items along with several different game modes.


Both the iPad and the iPhone versions of the game will be available for free for the next seven days.

I was thinking about buying this the other day.

Just got it now and am glad I never paid.

I played one game then spend the next 5 minutes trying to stop it selling me stuff.

I never managed a second game and have deleted it.

What a POS.

This was already free... I got it free for sure.....

They have put it on sale for free in the past without being the free app of the week. But there is also a free version which is probably what you saw.

You checked each one in iTunes to see if it shows a "buy" button or a "download" button just now.
