It's time to play the Fruit Ping game! Ping from a long distance to earn a star. Stars give you an extra boost — use them when they're active to score even more! Plan your moves with distance, timing, and direction. Tap a fruit, then tap its matching pair. If they match, the first fruit will fly to the second — and boom! Unlimited time to complete levels or limited game time. Ability to play any completed level. Have fun and move ahead, thanks! No Wi-Fi or cellular data needed. 100% ad-free (no commercials). Hints: the 3 round buttons below are boosts (shield, speed, robot).
