🍉 Fruit Ninja AR — Hand Gesture Edition

Fruit Ninja AR is a free browser-based augmented reality game that uses your webcam and real-time hand tracking to let you slice flying fruits with a virtual katana — no controller, no app install, no downloads required. Just open the page, allow camera access, and start slicing.

🎮 How to Play

• Allow camera access when prompted — your feed never leaves your device.
• Hold your hand up in front of the camera. A katana sword appears from your palm.
• Swipe your hand quickly through fruits to slice them and earn points.
• Avoid bombs — hitting one costs a life (Classic) or 5 seconds (Arcade).
• Slice multiple fruits in a single swipe for DOUBLE, TRIPLE or FRENZY combo bonuses.
• Look out for special power-up fruits: ❄️ Freeze Banana, ⭐ Bonus Star, and 💥 Pomegranate.
