Tips and Tricks to Playing Suika Game (Watermelon Game)

At its core, Watermelon Game requires you to drop fruits into a space on your screen, combining them to create larger fruit. Your objective is to get as many points as possible, eventually making a massive watermelon.

Below are some tips and tricks for getting as many points as possible:

  • Merge your fruits! You’ll lose the game if the box fills up and your fruits spill over, so combine your fruits to clear space.
  • Fruits jump! As you merge fruits, they’ll bounce slightly, causing surrounding fruits to jump. In many cases, this leads to them flying out of your box, losing you the game. Be careful when combining fruits so you can avoid this happening.
  • Create combos! If you want to maximize your score, place your fruits carefully so you can create chain reactions.
  • Patience is key. One wrong move can cause a rogue cherry or apple to fly out of your box, so be careful where you place your fruits.

Good luck getting the highest score possible in Suika Game!
