Fruit Ninja Kinect is a slightly more involved version of the touchscreen smart phone game Fruit Ninja which was introduced on the iPhone in 2010. The method of playing is that on the phone, you swipe your finger to “cut” fruit which pops up from the bottom of the screen.
In Fruit Ninja Kinect, the Xbox Kinect camera tracks you motions so you have to slice with your arms to destroy fruit on the big screen. To stop the game from simply being arm flailing, there are bombs that also pop up which you are not allowed to slash.
Overall, the effect is a frantic, somewhat silly (in a good way) game where you spend two to five minutes acting like a ninja and making hand chops in the air. Great for parties and for overactive six-year-olds you’re trying to tucker out before bed. Less good if you’re looking for something that will keep you occupied for more than 10 minutes at a time.
Here's an awesome video from Halfbrick Studios, showing off Fruit Ninja Kinect.
