Angry Birds Explained
The Angry Birds
Angry Birds is a very addictive game. Put simply, the purpose of the game is to destroy the green pigs who have stolen the Angry Birds eggs. The game finishes when either all the pigs have been eliminated (you win and can move onto the next level), or when you have used up all the birds (you lose and need to redo the level).
There are five main types of birds available which have special abilities when you tap the screen.

Yellow Angry Bird: Burst of speed/power | ||||

Blue Angry Bird: Splits into 3 birds | ||||
 |
Black Angry Bird: Explodes | ||||
 |
White Angry Bird: Drops explosive eggs | ||||

Pigs: There are several pigs which can be easy or hard to destroy | ||||
The Angry Birds can knock down structures, destroying the pigs and increasing your score. The structures can be made from several different materials including wood, glass, ice and stone. There is even TNT which can explode and boulders which can be knocked over to roll or fall.
Each level has a set combination of birds and pigs which you can use, so planning your strategy becomes important in the higher levels.
Beware, the game is very addictive and it is difficult to stop playing once you get started. You can play levels over and over again to try and get a better score or just because it is so much fun slinging the Angry Birds at the pigs!
