Flying Fruit is a 1 vs 3 Minigame in Wii Party.
Introduction[]
The camera zooms in on the fruit that the solo player needs to count. After that, the screen will change to the solo player in a thinking position as they turn around and blue curtains open up.
Gameplay (Solo Player)[]
The solo player must count the fruit which is flying through the curtains as the rival players try to "hide" the fruit from the solo player with panels. The fruits that can appear on screen are: bananas, lemons, and pears (all yellow), or apples, cherries, and strawberries (all red). These are always the combinations of fruit used because they are the same color, so the team can fool the solo player by other fruits.
If the solo player counts them correctly, he/she wins. If he/she doesn’t, the rival players win.
Note: It's possible to count up to 99, but since there cannot be this many of the fruit, it'll always result in a loss for the solo player.
Note: When you play with CPUs, they will sometimes put their paddles where there is no fruit, in order to trick the player.
Gameplay (Rival Players)[]
The rival players must try and hide the fruits from the solo player so that he/she misses some when counting. A good strategy is to start hiding it before it goes past the curtains. If they manage to fool the solo player into missing some fruits or going over the total, they win.
Trivia[]
- The Japanese and North American versions show red circles around the fruit when counting how many were flying, but in the European version, these were replaced with green "V" checkmarks. The reason is unknown.

- The background is a parody of the game show Let's Make a Deal.
- When red fruits are present, the background panels will be golden-yellow, and the tablecloths blue. When yellow fruits are present, the panels and tablecloths will instead be pale-blue and red, respectively.
- Silhouettes of the fruit currently present will also project within the "sky".
