Tips

1. **Prioritize special eliminations**: 

Matching 4 identical fruits creates a line effect (eliminating an entire row or column horizontally or vertically), while matching 5 creates an explosion effect (eliminating surrounding fruit in a large area). Combining these two effects effectively (for example, placing the line effect and the explosion effect next to each other) can help you quickly overcome complex levels (such as clearing large amounts of slime or breaking flower pots).

2. **Act according to level objectives**:

- Levels with a target score: Prioritize special eliminations to accumulate high scores;

- Mushroom collecting/flower pot breaking levels: Focus on the target and trigger eliminations by matching fruits around it to save moves;

- Slime clearing levels: Destroy the slime-covered fruit first to prevent it from spreading.

3. **Utilize boosters**: 

Save boosters earned in a level (such as rearranging fruit or eliminating individual fruits) for when you're pressed for moves or stuck to improve efficiency.

4. **Observe the Big Picture Before Acting**: 

Observe the entire board before each move to avoid blindly matching moves. Prioritize moves that trigger chain reactions (such as consecutive eliminations or special effect combinations) to maximize the value of each move.

5. **Sync Progress with Friends**: 

Sign in to Google+ to sync your progress. Learn from friends' strategies and use the achievements system to motivate yourself to challenge higher levels.

So, combine the fruits and emerge victorious!
