Fruit Ninja HD : Ninjas hate fruit. Fruit must be destroyed.

That’s the entire premise of this charming, quirky, swipe-based game that works best on the large, luscious iPad screen. While Fruit Ninja made its name as a single-player smash hit, it’s the re­cently included multiplayer modes that earned it a lasting spot on my tablet.

With two players facing each other and the screen laid out between them, its fruit-slicing nirvana, to say the least. All three modes (Classic, Attack, and Zen Duel) are available to play with another person.
