Who doesn't know the Angry Birds?! This addicted puzzle video game developed by Rovio Mobile from Finland sold over 12 million copies of the game since the release in December 2009. First it was only for the Iphone but thanks to the great succes, the company made versions for other touchscreen-based smartphones.
For noob's: Players use a slingshot to launch birds at pigs situated on or within various structures, with the intent of destroying all pigs on the playfield. The further you go, new birds with special ablities appear.
Rovio Mobile has supported Angry Birds with numerous free updates that add additional game content, Stand-alone holiday and promotional versions of the game.
