Angry birds are clever at coming up with appropriate titles not only for the animated series, but for their add-ons to the basic game and to the levels of the game itself. The game involves a certain amount of physics as you have to aim the birds at a structure to destroy it.

The Angry Bird game has now been downloaded more than half a billion times, making it one of if not the most popular game there is. That’s not bad for a game that was launched less than two years ago on December 2009 as an app for Apple’s iOS devices. The game is the brainchild of the people behind Rovio mobile, a Finnish company, which is soon to launch a store in Helsinki, Finland which specializes in Angry Bird spin-offs.
There are currently Angry Bird animated cartoons, and work is in the pipeline for many more but the latest offering gives you a flavor of what is to come; it was recently released in the run-up to Halloween and called “Ham-o’een.” The creators of Angry birds are clever at coming up with appropriate titles not only for the animated series, but for their add-ons to the basic game and to the levels of the game itself. For example we can play “Summer Pignic” or “Season’s Greedings” which I think are very good titles for this game whose objectives are to kill as many pigs as possible by catapulting extremely Angry Birds at their hiding places.
It is possible that you are one of the people who have not yet played this game, or perhaps you have but have not fully appreciated it. It would seem that a lot of adults find this game both entertaining and compulsive, as in the US recently there have been pundits trying to work out how many working hours have been lost due to employees playing the game during work time. Of course this is a pointless calculation, but it does demonstrate how popular the Angry Birds game actually is.
Ronvio Mobile actually makes around a million dollars in advertising per month it is estimated and grossed $70 million up to March this year. That’s not bad for a little over a year from the launch of the Angry Bird game. You can download the app or play the game free online and pit your skills against your friends or any other player online.
Why are the birds angry? The greedy hammy piggies stole their eggs. That means their species could face extinction of course, so they are out to get the pigs that did the heinous deeds. As a gamer your job is to kill the pigs and still have a bird in hand – you can’t rely on one in the proverbial bush to win. The game involves a certain amount of physics as you have to aim the birds at a structure to destroy it and to work out which bird is best for the task. There are more than a hundred levels to work your way through and add-ons and stand-alone games if you complete the levels and get bored with them. However that is unlikely.
Last year a pundit or two predicted that Angry Birds would overtake Super Mario and even that icon of the silver screen, Mickey Mouse, in the popularity rankings, and although that was scoffed at then, people are beginning to realize that it might have been an accurate prediction. Why not find an Angry Bird game and take a look at what the fuss is all about? If you have a lot of time to spare that is, as the game is highly addictive.
