The locations merely change the backdrop, but each Act will provide you with four randomized challenges, one of which always more challenging than the rest. There are four Acts to Bandito: San Ricardo, Cat Cantina, Sky Castle and the Finale. (Well, maybe aside from Fruit Ninja Kinect.) And the parlor game feel this mode emanates fits perfectly with the Renaissance flair of Dreamworks's world. Essentially, Bandito is a gauntlet of goofy yet hellish challenges that test your reflexes more than any Fruit Ninja game has thus far. This gameplay mode alone is what will make this game feel as if it's a direct sequel to Fruit Ninja. Regardless, both of which have achievements to collect, though the former seems to have plenty more than the latter. PiB boasts both OpenFeint and Game Center support, so it's your choice which mobile social game network to hang out on. Of course, there is a number of new backgrounds to unlock and fresh blades with amusing effects, like the Guitar Blade and Cat Claws Blade.

However, there are these magic beans that are thrown from time to time and-if you have all three hearts-you'll score 25 points for chopping them, but they can also restore hearts when you're low. Fruit is flung, you're given just three hearts that disappear when you miss fruit and slicing a bomb means game over. The former, unfortunately, isn't much more than your standard Classic Mode from the original. Those looking for a challenge will feel right at home in Puss in Boots (PiB) in both of its gameplay modes: Desperado and Bandito. And it's damn difficult-alright, Arcade Mode was getting a bit soft anyway. It's easy to consider this version a direct sequel to the original Fruit Ninja for how fresh it feels and the bevy of new concepts it brings to the table. But that's OK, because Halfbrick has created one beautiful branded game in Fruit Ninja: Puss in Boots ($.99 iPhone $1.99 iPad) for iOS devices.
