Fruit Merge Evolution Order and Score Table
Two identical fruits create one fruit from the next level. The score shown below is awarded when that new fruit is created. The base-fruit requirement shows how many Cherries are needed for one fruit at that level in a perfect theoretical chain.

Every Fruit Level Explained
Cherry
Starting level
5Score value
1Base cherries
15Radius
Small and easy to place, but isolated Cherries can become trapped beneath larger fruits.
Strawberry

2Base cherries
20Radius
Useful for early chain merges and still compact enough to fit into small gaps.
Grape

4Base cherries
25Radius
Compact and mobile, making it a useful connector between early merge groups.
Orange

8Base cherries
32Radius
The first level where poor placement noticeably reduces available board space.
Apple
Created by 2 Oranges

16Base cherries
39Radius
Needs a clearer landing area. Avoid leaving one alone in the center where it can block later drops.
Peach
Created by 2 Apples
160Merge score
32Base cherries
48Radius
A useful foundation fruit when placed low and near a side, but large enough to trap smaller fruit.
Pineapple
Created by 2 Peaches
320Merge score
64Base cherries
57Radius
Occupies significant horizontal space. Create it on a stable low section, not near the danger line.
Watermelon
Created by 2 Pineapples
640Merge score
128Base cherries
68Radius
A large late-game fruit that is usually safer near the side of a low board with space around it.
Grapefruit
Created by 2 Watermelons
1,280Merge score
256Base cherries
80Radius
Requires substantial room. Do not create it below a cluttered tower where it cannot settle.
Melon
Created by 2 Grapefruits
2,560Merge score
512Base cherries
92Radius
Difficult to reposition after creation. Plan its final location before completing the merge.
Dragon Fruit
Created by 2 Melons
5,120Merge score
1,024Base cherries
106Radius
The final evolution level. Reaching it requires long-term board control and enough room for two Melons to meet.
Understanding the progression
Why Every Evolution Level Becomes Harder
Requirements double
Each level requires twice as many base Cherries as the level before it.
The board becomes tighter
Higher-level fruits use more physical space and are harder to move after they settle.
Late merges are more valuable
The merge value doubles at every level, rewarding successful long chains.
Practical lesson: the evolution chain is not only about earning points. Every larger fruit changes the shape of the board and reduces the number of safe landing positions.
