Fruit Ninja: Puss in Boots heading to Android on Monday

Android users, no longer must you watch the iOS crowd with green eyes of jealousy. In a few days, you'll be able to wield his cat claw sword for yourself in Fruit Ninja: Puss in Boots.

It's coming to the Amazon Marketplace on Monday, where you'll be able to download the game for free. You'll need to pounce on this one relatively quickly, because it'll only be free for a day; afterwards, it'll only be $.99, so it won't be that big a deal if you forget. Unless it is a big deal, obviously, but if a buck is going to break the bank for you we're sure you've got more important things on your mind.
