Watermelon game fruit order: all 11 fruits
In Frutelia, the 11 fruits go cherry, blueberry, strawberry, lemon, kiwi, orange, peach, pear, coconut, pineapple, watermelon. Two identical fruits merge into the next one in that list, the watermelon is the last fruit, and two watermelons that touch vanish and score points.

The 11 fruits of Frutelia, in order
Every merge moves one step down this list. Two cherries make a blueberry, two blueberries make a strawberry, and so on until two pineapples make a watermelon. The points column is what one merge of that fruit is worth before any combo multiplier.
| # | Fruit | Points per merge |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | | 10 |
| 2 | | 20 |
| 3 | | 30 |
| 4 | | 40 |
| 5 | | 50 |
| 6 | | 60 |
| 7 | | 70 |
| 8 | | 80 |
| 9 | | 90 |
| 10 | | 100 |
| 11 | | 110 |
The rule behind the points is simple: a fruit's rank times ten. Merging two cherries (rank 1) gives 10 points, merging two pineapples (rank 10) gives 100, and merging two watermelons (rank 11) gives 110.
How many fruits come before the watermelon?
Ten. The watermelon is the eleventh and last fruit. That means a watermelon is the result of ten merges stacked on top of each other: on paper it takes 1,024 cherries to build one, but you never start from cherries alone, because the game also hands you blueberries, strawberries, lemons and kiwis.
Which fruits fall from the top?
Only the five smallest: cherry, blueberry, strawberry, lemon and kiwi. Each drop is one of these five, chosen at random. Everything from the orange upward has to be built by merging. The next fruit is shown before you drop the current one, so you always know one move ahead.
This matters for strategy. A kiwi skips four steps of the ladder at once, so it is often the most useful drop in the early game, while a cherry is small enough to slip into gaps between bigger fruits.
The last fruit, and what happens after it
The watermelon is the top of the ladder. There is nothing bigger to make, so when two watermelons touch they vanish from the jar instead of merging into a twelfth fruit. In Frutelia that final pop scores 110 points, multiplied like any other merge if it is part of a chain, and it frees the biggest space you can get in one move.
Getting two watermelons at once is rare, and it is the moment most players remember. Our guide to high scores and double watermelons explains how to set it up.
The classic Suika Game fruit order
The genre was made popular by Suika Game, published by Aladdin X. According to Wikipedia, its eleven fruits, from smallest to largest, are:
- Cherry
- Strawberry
- Grapes
- Dekopon (a Japanese citrus)
- Persimmon
- Apple
- Pear
- Peach
- Pineapple
- Melon
- Watermelon
Frutelia is a different game, so its ladder is different: it uses a blueberry, a lemon, a kiwi, an orange and a coconut, and has no grapes, dekopon, persimmon, apple or melon. Both ladders start with the cherry, end with the watermelon and contain eleven fruits.

| # | Frutelia | Suika Game |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Cherry | Cherry |
| 2 | Blueberry | Strawberry |
| 3 | Strawberry | Grapes |

| 8 | Pear | Peach |
| 9 | Coconut | Pineapple |
| 10 | Pineapple | Melon |
| 11 | Watermelon | Watermelon |
Other fruit-merge games on the App Store use their own ladders too. If a guide gives you a list that does not match what you see on screen, check which game it was written for.
Why the order matters when you play
- Sizes grow faster at the top. The small fruits are close in size, the last four are much bigger. A coconut or a pineapple takes a large share of the jar, so plan where it will land before you make it.
- Bigger fruits are heavier. In Frutelia a big fruit pushes small ones around when it lands, which can open or close a merge.
- Keep neighbours in order. If an orange sits next to a peach and the peach next to a pear, one orange merge can roll all the way up the line. Our watermelon game tips cover this in detail.
