Yes. The game and every included skin are free to use. You do not need an account or a payment to play or select a look.

Yes. Open this page in a browser with JavaScript and Canvas enabled; no app installation or account is required. The browser still needs to load the page, images and audio. This is different from offline play, and the site does not bypass a school, workplace or network block.

Once the page and game assets have loaded, a running round does not need an online service. Reopening or reloading the hosted site offline is not guaranteed: it has no installed offline cache. The separate portable HTML edition bundles its assets for offline use, if you already have that file.

Your round, best score, skins and language are saved in this browser when local storage is available. They do not sync across devices, browser profiles or domains. Private browsing, blocked storage or clearing site data can remove or prevent saves. Return in the same browser on the same address; an older domain’s save does not move automatically.

On a phone, drag inside the game area to aim and release to drop. With a mouse, move to aim and release to drop. Focus the board to use Left/Right to aim, Space or Enter to drop, and P to pause.

Only fruits of the same level can merge. With mixed skins, similar-looking fruit may belong to different levels; check the numbered fruit-family strip. A fruit that has just been created by a merge also has a short merge cooldown. Let the pile settle before dropping another fruit into a tight gap.

Mouse and touch controls drop on release, not when you first press. Drops are at least 0.4 seconds apart, and input is disabled while loading, paused, showing a dialog or after game over. Close any dialog and choose Keep playing if paused. For keyboard controls, focus the board first, then use Space or Enter.

First click or touch the page, then check that Sound is on and that the browser tab and device are not muted. Browsers can block audio until you interact with the page. The game remains playable without sound; an unavailable audio file does not change the merging rules.

Check your connection, allow JavaScript for this site and try reloading in an up-to-date browser. The game needs Canvas support and its local image files to load. If your network blocks the site, use an approved connection or ask its administrator. Avoid clearing site data as a first fix because it can erase your saved round and best score.

No. All fruit sets use the same 11 collision sizes, scoring, drop cooldown and overflow rules. You can mix a different appearance for each level without losing the round. Use the numbered fruit-family strip to identify matches when the fruit names or pictures differ.
