Star Wars-themed Angry Birds
Angry Birds Star Wars is a free arcade title from developer Rovio. It’s an entry in the popular Angry Birds game puzzle series that draws inspiration from the equally loved Star Wars franchise. This game is set on the backdrop of the popular epic space opera’s universe with narratives following that of the storyline of the Star Wars movies.
Much like Angry Birds Rio or Angry Birds Legends, Angry Birds Star Wars is another release that takes cues from existing materials for its character and game design. The result is a fun experience that fans of both franchises can play and enjoy.
Angry Birds in space
The Angry Birds series is one of the most popular arcade puzzle games ever released with its quirky characters and addictive gameplay. The Star Wars franchise needs no introduction and is one of the most influential entities in the sci-fi genre. Combine the two and what you get is Angry Birds Star Wars, a surprisingly faithful adaptation of the beloved space trilogy.
If you’ve played any of its releases before, then Angry Birds Star Wars will feel familiar, with its intuitive controls and simple yet engaging gameplay. Play as characters from the films including Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and even the Millennium Falcon. One difference from other games is that you can still trigger skills after collision within a couple of seconds after the fact.
What’s more, if you’re the completionist type of player, you can unlock bonus levels by getting full stars on specific stages you finish. The only thing to be aware of before giving it a go is that the game has stopped receiving updates for some time now. You can still play and enjoy it as it is, just don’t expect new content or features to arrive anytime soon.
Still worth experience
Despite not being maintained anymore, Angry Birds Star Wars is still a fun and engaging game to try out if you’re a fan of arcade puzzlers. Double, if you love the Star Wars franchise, as well. There are plenty of characters to try and levels to complete for hours and hours of gameplay. Suffice it to say, this one’s a must-play.
