Armor-,wise pigs will be wearing pumpkin lids, whole pumpkins and Christmas hats to mark these special occasions.įrom a difficulty stand point Angry Birds Seasons is hard, sometimes REALLY hard! Compared to the original game, Seasons blows it away it terms of complexity and thought. The only real difference in game play is the new items available to gather points Pumpkins offer up bonus points in the Halloween levels and the Christmas levels presents…well presents! They don’t really affect how you play, but it’s nice to have some new items included. With Angry Birds Seasons you’re thrown straight into the mix with all the birds and very little time to master them. If for some reason you have no idea what Angry Birds is or how to play, then feel free to read our review of the original Angry Birds as it’s probably better to start with the original over Seasons as it offers many more levels and gives you a much more gradual introduction. Individual levels don’t have a soundtrack, but there is constant arctic breeze flowing in the winter levels, something which is sorely lacking in Angry Birds. The game gets some new soundtracks to boot with a creepy version of the original theme and a jolly yuletide beat for the Christmas edition. It all just meshes nicely from the superb character designs, to the stunning backgrounds and with all the original sounds intact, nothing is spared with presentation. The game has its own look and feel when compared to the Angry Birds of Christmas past and it really does help to make this a fresh experience. Levels are brilliant, beautifully complex designs with falling snow, big evergreens and igloo like structures. On the festive side, we get a winter wonderland full of character and craziness. It’s all a nice way to differentiate the game, but still feels completely in sync with the normal Angry Birds experience you’ve come to expect. With the Halloween pack, each level opens with the usual chatter of birds, but they are joined by the howl of a wolf. Platforms are made of dark rock usually shaped to resemble the nightmares associated with Halloween such as pumpkins and bats. The Halloween pack is Angry Birds twisted take on the October nightmares, levels are sets against a pumpkin orange wasteland dotted with black crooked trees that look a bit like weeping willows. The Seasons app currently consists of two packages, Angry Birds Halloween and a new collection of Christmas themed levels. The difference to the birds is negligible for the season’s app, but the pigs get special items and deco to mark the occasion. The Pigs, like the birds, come in a bizarre array of flavors. You are given a collection of crazy birds each with their own unique way of dealing with the pigs, lean green egg stealing machines determined to rob the birds’ precious eggs. Angry Birds is just a tower destruction game like many others, but it shine’s because of its character and there is no were better to see this than in Angry Birds Seasons. Now if you loved the original, then this is the perfect way to spend a dollar this Christmas season. Let’s get it out of the way, Angry Birds Seasons is more of the same, if you didn’t like the original Angry Birds it’s highly unlikely this will change anything. The quirkiness of the characters in this installment shines ahead of the normal experience with the holidays giving way to some of the best looking levels yet. Rovio’s latest outing (now self-published) is consistently a fun and engaging romp through the deluded world of Angry Birds. More chaos is to be had with the latest version of Angry Birds, It’s a lot of the same gameplay we have come to expect but that doesn’t mean it’s any less fun. It’s terrible to be producing a review of a seasonal app out of season, but the good thing about seasons is that there is always another just around the corner, so here we go.
