The description sums this up :

Hit a score of 250 in Classic.

Out of the three score related achievments, this is by far the hardest, and most frustrating.

Classic mode is a life based mode, and not timed like the other two. You have three lives.

Every time an unsliced fruit hits the floor, you lose a life.

If you hit a bomb, it's game over (unlike Arcade where you lose 10 points).

So, the premise is simple - hit every fruit, dont ever hit a bomb. Sounds easy.

When you get to around 50-60 points, a combo fruit will appear. Hit this, then slice it as many times as you can. This can boost your score by 50-60 points. It also gives you one life back.

The hardest sections are when you either get lots of fruit at once, as you may miss the odd one or two, or where you get lots of bombs and only one or two fruits. You then have to dodge the bombs, but still hit the fruits before they hit the floor.

For the former, aim for huge combo slices where you hit all 8-10 fruit at once, so none can drop.
For the latter, keep your hands low, wait for the bombs to move (they usually hit the floor before the fruit) and then slice upwards to take the fruit out.

Good luck, this one may take a while!
NateEasy I got it the same time I got the dragon fruit. You get 50 points for the dragon fruit. That sure helps.

DragonCrusaderV finally!! just got it today along with my 3rd slice of dragon fruit and sunshine on a rainy day achievement. If this achievement is hard to get then the weather the storm achievement is freaking impossible!

Old Man Thomas Also, turn up the volume. The bombs make very distinct sounds before they come on the screen, so you know when that are coming.

Zymotic Good info. I wasn't sure if the combo fruit appeared randomly or what.

RULEi Hey great info , what really helped me was keeping my hands low. I got it first try when keeping my hands low and waiting for bombs to pass , thanks again.

lord grenade And I just did 249 points for the second time... Does someone know how to get +10 points with Critical? I get it sometimes but I just don't understand why.

Lavindathar Criticals are from perfect slices afaik, in the centre of the fruit and all the way through.
