Review of Rio angry birds

The birds are back! After the original and the seasons, developer Rovio today released the suite called Rio. It is now available in the app store, and I checked.

What's new?

At the start, it becomes clear that there is a whole new game in the series. The core mechanic is the same, but everything has changed. Including new menus, levels and opponents, among other things. Angry birds now also has a history, but (fortunately!) it does not go very deep. Essentially, the birds were alive and happy life when one day, they are captured and transported to Rio to the Brazil. You must help escape them by completing the challenges of Rideau. The first levels are all to help his colleagues bird escape by their cages. Once completed (30 levels) the game tells you that you managed to escaped and now fly in the forest of Brazil, where you'll stumble on monkeys evil (yay!).

Gameplay

As I said, the basic gameplay mechanic remains unchanged. Largely the same birds are at your disposal and are introduced to the player once more. I like to give them nicknames, such as red this call "Mr. average" because they cannot do much. And I think that yellow birds are Italian because they are fast and passionate. In any event the new levels are fun but also rather easy. I am a player of birds in anger addict and blown through levels over 2 hours.

In anger, that birds Rio currently offers 60 levels in more than 2 "scenes", with 4 scenes more promised in the year. They are currently not available, which annoys me a lot. Essentially, the developers said: Yes, we aren't done yet but you can buy it now and upgrade later. I hope that this beta test attitude does not become the trend in the mobile game. Buyers have now wait until May to the 3rd world, this is two months from now! And the final level really will be open until November.

Presentation

The new storyboard style is fun and adds some depth to the game. Now, it is indeed logical to be in a forest and hit random monkeys. (Yeah...)

Also improved are the visuals. Origins appear to be more dynamic and more net research. Combined with the fantastic news, angry birds animations Rio is a real looker in mobile gaming.

Conclusion

Angry, that birds Rio is a great game. This is not a major overhaul but it did not need to be. Rovio has delivered exactly what Bird players angry looking: more content. It's just a shame they offers you 1/3 of the game now and the rest over a period of 8 months (!), it is recommended for some patience. Still strongly recommended.

Birds in anger - buy this game unless you are ready to be an addict

Angry birds should be banned - it is this dependency. I spent many years, rooted in the tradition of the "hardcore game" (I shudder even think this sentence, but I suppose that it is useful for this discussion) that I have rarely much account side "casual" more things. That all changed when I bought my iPad. The overwhelming realization that I had been missing next to all these wonderful games few years was enough to make me go out and buy a whole slew of them in my first day of the property. As many of these games, angry birds is somewhere at the head of the Pack, showing players funny how a simple game can be, and (perhaps more importantly) showing developers a little something about game design.

The principle of the game is simple enough for the genre, between hilarious characters designed against each other in a fantastic scenario; This time, discover us that birds despise pigs and will stop at nothing to kill them. This conflict is played in a series of kamikaze dive-bombing on which the player has control of incidents.

You launch birds by pulling back on a slingshot, but don't confuse that for some excuse game mechanic when touching the screen simply raises a static animation. Instead of this, your touch movement and finger directly control the angle and power of the sling you in real life. The combination of this deep hidden with the progression of the place of new units, structures and power-ups, it becomes quickly apparent that Rovio Mobile were left wide open so strategy that you can collect. There is room for tons of creativity here. Birds angry at its heart, uses a physics engine for some wonderfully emergent gameplay despite its attributes enough fuel database.

The bottom line: during my fit purchases of gaming, I initially planned on donation of angry birds only a few minutes of my time since there were many other games test. Of course, things play much differently, and I ended spending an entire trip between Indiana and California obsessively tapping away at my iPad screen. I got a few strange on the plan (including my wife who was sitting next to me), but I was too much fun to care.

If I had to choose only three games on my iPad, angry birds would absolutely, 100% do the Cup as one of them, and I gave only the tip of the iceberg. I hope that stop you by my site resources block below to read the full review of birds in anger as well as some other applications that I consider "must buy"!
