Fruit Crush is the match-3 puzzle game where you line up three or more identical fruits horizontally or vertically on a grid to pop them and score. The genre was crystallized by Bejeweled in 2001 and brought to mainstream mobile gaming by Candy Crush Saga in 2012 — Fruit Crush is the essence of that lineage. The simple rule of "match three to clear" combined with combos, cascades, and special tiles produces the deep addictive loop that makes one round impossible to finish at one.

The entire input is "swap two adjacent fruits." Drag with the mouse or swipe on touch to exchange a fruit with its neighbor; the swap only succeeds if it creates a line of three or more identical fruits. If no line forms, the swap automatically reverts. When matched fruits pop, the fruits above slide down to fill the gaps, and if that fill triggers another line, a "cascade" fires off — a single swap can chain dozens of points in one go.

The key to high scores is going beyond simple three-matches. A three-match just pops and clears, but a four-in-a-row evolves into a "line bomb" that clears the entire row or column when triggered, and five-in-a-row or T/L-shapes evolve into rainbow/color bombs that affect the whole board. Whenever possible, hold a beat longer and aim for four- or five-matches — they take one more move but deliver vastly more points per second over the run.

Game modes typically come in "limited moves" or "timed" variants. Hitting a target score within those constraints is the win condition, and as the board fills with special tiles late in the round, a single move's impact grows exponentially. A round lasts about 3 to 7 minutes — the sweet spot for commuter trips, lunch breaks, and short evenings at home where you want a short but immersive session.
