Angry Birds is flying at top speed, but not because things are going well. Over the past 13 months the company Rovio posted 6 games from the universe on virtual showcases Angry Birds, experimenting with genres. Almost all “launches” before the second part turned out to be average or bad, the series finally descended into shareware hell… There was no particular hope that the resurrection of the original format with slingshot shooting would bring the birds out of their protracted dive.

Well, everyone has heard about the bird

Meaning Angry Birds is well known to everyone, in the sequel it underwent only cosmetic changes and acquired bells and whistles. The team of feathered heroes is almost the same as the first part, only instead of the green boomerang bird, a high-speed silver one appeared, diving down when you press the screen, and the red bird learned a powerful scream that can collapse the buildings of pigs. This skill will come in handy more than once, because the fortifications of the green pigs are now very often built one after another. In addition, all stages consist of several screens, and bastions are randomly generated. So if you go through it again, it may become easier or more difficult, but you won’t be able to train. At a new level, you can easily come across designs that you have already seen. It doesn’t come out very well.

Unfortunately, Angry Birds 2 distributed according to non-uk-casinos.co.uk/ the free-to-play model, in which the Finns are not particularly strong and solve everything with inflated complexity along with a strictly limited number of lives. The difficulty is that tweeting “cartridges” are now running short. We have a single copy of each bird, new ones are issued when the destruction line is completed and prizes in the form of golden boars are collected. To compensate, the player was given the opportunity to choose the order of the birds, although not from all of them, but only from three, the rest will wait their turn. Plus, having spent all the heroes and not destroyed the barricades of the pigs, you are free to watch an advertisement and get another shell (an Internet connection is required here). There are also mass destruction spells like carpet bombing with rubber ducks, but they are not always effective and are extremely rare.

Why don’t birds fly like birds?

As a result, the dynamics here are like in any bad donation game – sessions are short and infrequent if you don’t pay. Even the implemented online arena suffers from this, providing only one free “battle” every three hours. Moreover, we put the word “battle” in quotes for a reason. There are no battles between people with the construction of redoubts. The mode offers a series of screens with pigs, the one who scores the most points in this simple task receives the internal currency of the arena – feathers, and sooner or later also a promotion in class. As always Rovio, the idea is alien, implemented with absolutely no spark, and even not integrated into the story campaign in any way.

What turned out well in the second part was the graphics and entertainment. Everything has been done here to captivate the target audience of children and women. Numerous details live on the screen at the same time, the piglets’ fortifications are scattered into a million pieces, level elements can help with destruction, such as flowers or portals that transport pieces of wood and stone to undead enemies. “Bosses” appeared in their classical sense – with a “life” bar and the need to select tactics. Of course they’re all pigs. Owners of not the latest hardware will have to pay for beauty with fairly frequent flights. It’s good that they don’t happen at the shooting range, but when going to the global map.

TO Angry Birds 2 an analogy from the world of warships applies. If you attach additional guns and new-fangled armor to a fast cruiser, but only let sailors in at certain times and charge the crew for it, it is unlikely that such a ship will be able to sail for a long time and certainly will not become a powerful battleship. Most likely, it will drown in the first battle. This is approximately the situation in which this game is located, which can only be recommended to the biggest fans of the original parts.

Pros: this is the most beautiful and spectacular of the “classic” Angry Birds; a lot of content – almost 250 levels.
Cons: for the sake of monetization, the gameplay has become worse; the online arena turned out to be boring; crashes even on iPhone 5.
