About the game
Catch Fruits is a timing arcade game: objects fall from the top and you slide a basket to collect the good ones while avoiding the hazardous ones.

Move the basket left or right to catch falling items. Score for good catches, lose points or lives for the bad ones.
Tips & strategy
['Read the fall column early and commit to a lane.', 'Ignore risky items unless you have a clear path.', 'Keep the basket moving smoothly, not in jumps.']
Advanced guide
Catch games reward anticipation over reaction. Identify each item's falling column the moment it appears and move the basket into a position to receive the good ones while steering clear of hazards - never wait until the last moment to decide.
