This game is combined with the film which is called Rio.
Angry Birds Friends
This game changes to let players
to interact others because it can be competed.
Angry Birds Space
The game is no longer limited to
the ground. The players can use the birds to attack the pigs from different angles,
horizontal attack or vertical attack. The situation seems as in space.
Angry Birds Star Wars
It is on the basis of Star Wars
to fight Empire’s army. It is the latest version which released on Nov, 2012.
In the beginning, Angry Birds is
a game for smartphone. Gradually, Rovio tended to produce for computer, NDS. No
matter which sizes of the monitors, people can still enjoy the game.
It is aesthetically pleasing
because it is colorful and attracts your eyes but would not disturb players to
focus on destroying the structures.
There is a thought-provoking
thing. Although it advocates the attitude of revenge, it still has positive
meaning which is cooperation. Different birds have different strength and
combine together to finish the tasks.
According to pocketgamer Jon
Mundy, Angry Birds is easy to play but if you want to get three stars, you have
to consider more to see which angle will be more accurate to destroy the whole
building.[2]
Surely, it is suitable for every age since it is user-friendly to control the
birds. However, you have to find out which point is the easiest for destroying.

àsociety: After this game released, the name “angry birds” in Chinese means get angry, then people always use angry bird to describe angry feeling. It is really annoying because people always say this term by using the non- normal one.
-Is the game art according to a certain definition?
According to Adams, art should make you feel something and have to express ideas. Angry Birds is not only an interesting game, it also trains your brain to consider what is the best method to get three stars and makes you happy.
According to Mr Buffa(2011), Angry Birds Rio crossover the film Rio to maintain the features of the film, like characters and scenery. It is another way to promote a film.[3]The idea is that use Angry Birds as a promotion to let more people know the film.
What is the aesthetic things in this game? As I mentioned, those backgrounds of Angry Birds are very colorful and decorative. If you capture the screen of playing angry birds, you will discover that all things have been designed. And that is art. The sound of the game really real because when the birds crash to the structure, then there will be a sound like" bomb".
