Angry Birds Fly into Toy Fair

by James

If your parents have a smart phone, chances are, you know about ANGRY BIRDS. The best selling mobile game app of all time is now a board game, and it’s flown into Toy Fair in New York, with a vengeance.

The new Angry Birds game

The new Angry Birds game

In many ways, it’s like Chinga with homicidal birds included. The object is simple. Constuct a barrier that houses the evil green pigs, then use the catapult to launch the Angry Birds to destroy it. Players can create any designs that come to their imagination and kids learn about physics, contruction techniques, and of course, mayhem with a poultry-esque flair. There’s also game cards which throw specific challenges into the mix. Now, unfortunately, the yellowbirds won’t get a boost, nor will the blue birds split in threes for extra damage, and the bomb bird can’t lay his egg of doom, but it still looks like a great game.
