🐧 1. The Basics
Welcome to Low Hanging Fruit! You control a hungry penguin on an endless adventure. Your goal is simple: collect fruit, avoid bombs, and don't starve!
Controls
Tap to jump and collect items from trees. Swipe up while jumping for a higher jump to reach special items like Mana Bananas, the Wizard, or the Leprechaun that appear above the trees.
The Hunger Bar
Your penguin has a hunger bar that constantly depletes. If it empties completely, your penguin starves and the game ends!
🌳 2. Trees & Mystery Boxes
Trees have mystery boxes that can contain fruit, multipliers, or bombs. The risk level displayed on top of each box tells you how likely it is to contain a bomb.
What Mystery Boxes Can Contain
🍎 Fruit
Safe and reliable. Fills your hunger bar and adds to your score.
⚡ Multipliers
Boost your score! Multipliers stack for massive points.
💣 Bombs
Game over! Unless you have a shield active.
Risk Levels (1-5)
Mystery boxes display a risk level from 1 to 5. Higher risk means a higher chance of a bomb, but also better potential rewards:
| Risk Level | Bomb Chance | Reward Potential | When to Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| ⚠️ Level 1 | Very Low | Low | Playing it safe, prevent hunger |
| ⚠️⚠️ Level 2 | Low | Moderate | Still relatively safe |
| ⚠️⚠️⚠️ Level 3 | Medium | Good | Balanced risk/reward |
| ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️ Level 4 | High | High | For risk-takers |
| ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️ Level 5 | Very High | Very High | Maximum danger, maximum reward! |
⚡ 3. Multipliers
This is the key to high scores! Understanding multipliers is essential for competing on the leaderboards.
Two Types of Multipliers
🔥 Streak Multiplier
Builds automatically as you collect items without missing. Resets if you miss a tree or take damage.
⚡ Pickup Multiplier
Found in mystery boxes. Temporarily boosts your score multiplier.
Stacking for Maximum Points
Both multiplier types can stack together. Combining them is the real secret to maximizing your fruit count and climbing the leaderboards!
✨ 4. Wizard & Leprechaun
Sometimes you'll encounter magical characters who appear above the trees. Use swipe up to reach them!
🧙♂️ The Wizard
The Wizard appears randomly and offers you magical orbs. Choose wisely - not all are beneficial!
🔮 Crystal Gaze
See the contents of the next 3 mystery boxes before opening them.
☠️ Poison
Immediately ends your game! Avoid this one.
⭐ Score Multiplier
Grants a powerful temporary multiplier boost.
🍀 The Lucky Leprechaun
The Leprechaun offers you a gamble - a chance to double your fruit... or lose half!
🎯 Win
Double your current fruit collection!
😅 Lose
Lose half your current fruit collection.
❤️ 5. Revive System
When your penguin dies (from a bomb or starvation), you get a chance to continue!
