Wondering how to play Count the Fruit in Fall Guys? Also known as ‘Sum Fruit,’ this round has been throwing a ton of players off because of how vague the in-game description is, and how difficult it can be to actually see what fruit you’re supposed to be hopping on. In this Fall Guys Sum Fruit guide, we’re going to explain absolutely everything you need to know about the minigame, so it never gets in your way of securing a Crown again.
Fall Guys Sum Fruit Explained
The in-game description of Sum Fruit reads: “Count the fruit. When the screens show the quantity, stand on the tile of a fruit matching that number.”
The gist of this game is you need to memorize the amount of each type of fruit that falls in the arena before the timer on the screens around the arena runs out. At this point the fruit will disappear, and a number will be shown on the screens. You need to use your memory to then stand on the fruit tile that corresponds with that number. For example, if the screens show two, and you counted two bananas in the arena, you’d stand on the banana tile.
The easiest way to explain how this works is to break the round down into its different segments, and that all starts with counting the fruit.
1. Count the Fruit that Drops Into the Arena
At the very beginning of each round of Sum Fruit, a bunch of different types of fruit will land in the arena that you and your fellow Bean players are standing in. There will be about three or four different types of fruit, and a random number of pieces of each type.
You then have 12 seconds in the first round, or 17 seconds in rounds two or three of Sum Fruit to memorize the amount of each type of fruit.
2. Avoid the Rising Slime
Once the timer has ran out, purple slime will begin rising from the floor of the arena. Use the platforms in the center of the arena to avoid this, and then step on the grey tiles that appear. Don’t fall into the slime, or you’re out completely.
3. Look at the Arena Screens to See the Number
When the grey tiles appear, look around the edge of the arena and you’ll see a number of yellow screens. These screens will have a number on them, and this will correspond to one of the types of fruit that dropped into the arena.
4. Stand on the Fruit Tile That Matches the Number of Fruit Displayed On-Screen
The grey tiles will now display one of the types of fruit that had dropped into the arena. All you need to do is stand on the tile that shows a picture of the fruit that had the amount displayed on the screens around the arena. For example, if you counted four bananas, and the number on the screens is 4, you’d stand on the banana tile.
You’ll have five seconds to pick the correct tile. After the correct answer is shown on the screen, the tiles of the wrong answers of fruit or random objects will disappear, plummeting the players standing on them into the slime and eliminating them from the game.
As long as you survive all three rounds, you’ll advance to the next minigame in Fall Guys.
Remember, this challenge can be tricky at first, you’re not alone! Hopefully now you’re able to wrack up some more wins with confidence.
