Introduction
Fruit Fall is a puzzle game that will send you bananas!
Your mission is to make fruit vanish! You control mazes full of fruit. As you rotate the
mazes the fruit will fall down. When three or more identical fruit end up touching each
other they will vanish. Sounds simple? Don't be a lemon!
The game is set in three unique environments; a ghoulish ghost world, an underwater
lost city, and also in deep space.
The aim of the game is to conquer all the levels and win all 15 stars.

Playing Tips
Want to become a Fruit Fall master? The following tips might help!
• In arcade mode why not make a move when you're not sure what to do it might give you new opportunities.
• Be careful on levels with more than 3 of any single fruit - its possible to
leave less then 3 of a fruit, resulting in a stalemate.
• Sometimes the best thing to do is reset a level and start again!
Press ’R’ to surrender a level. If you take this option
you will lose a life, and have to start the level again.
