The game is getting more intricate and difficult and to maneuver around and because the score boxes cover the parts of the game at the top and to the right. Please either make them smaller or put score boxes on the bottom so as not to interfere with the playing of the game. April 18, 2023 Thanks. The game is not loading on my iPad. I have to click on the app about 10 times or more and if I'm lucky, it will come on. What is the matter...is it new updates or is it from Rovio? Losing my patience😩 October 19, 2023 Angry Birds creators are not listening....the score boxes are covering parts of the game because they're too big. The difficulty of the game has increased to the point of frustration and considering quitting! When he run of playing becomes too much of a chore to continue....then something needs to change. The fan feature is ridiculous and sometimes impossible to get good scores. Not happy

Honest review from your biggest fan.

Hello Rovio entertainment today I’m reviewing angry birds friends with my thoughts and opinions please feel free to tell everyone about my review. For ab friends being one of the only classic angry birds games still around that is already worth a star on my review because I love all the classic angry birds games just the concept of slingshoting birds at pigs was always enjoyable I especially love the concept of infinite levels this one has just playing a bunch of different levels in the form of tournaments is amazing and how these levels are made is even cooler, I would love to see an official angry birds level maker uploaded to the App Store anyways I love how the birds are more powerful than ever before and the art style is pretty good my only problem comes with how hard the levels can be which isn’t really much of a problem that you can fix because games like this require the difficulty and my final point is how I’m not a fan of the recent updates I don’t like how the amount of levels required to beat before reaching the tournament was increased and how there is a useless feature occasionally added like blues tallest tower which would be better if you let the player decorate the tower anyways that was my review and I’m honestly more impressed with the game than I thought I was going to be so I have to give a close to 5 star review.

Horrible customer service, broken slingshot

I purchased a wishbone slingshot, which is supposed to “cause more damage to every object on the screen,” a direct quote from support. BUT- I’ve done tests on multiple levels and types of objects and have concluded it works the exact same as the normal slingshot. I have purchased a jingle sling as well, which does work as it should. I sent support a message explaining my concerns with the wishbone, but I was sent an automated response and was told there was no issue. I replied back, and my ticket was closed. I began a second support ticket, explaining my frustrations even further, and received the same exact response and my ticket was closed again. For the third time, I asked for someone to actually read my issue, and I think I may have gotten a real person, but I’m unsure because he was just as unhelpful as the first. I then asked for a refund so I could purchase a different slingshot that would hopefully work as it should. I was told that would be unfair to other players. I feel it’s unfair to me that I wasted my money on a slingshot that doesn’t work as advertised. I’ve been playing the Angry Birds games for 10 years and I’m so saddened to see they don’t respect or appreciate the people who keep them in business.

Closest to the original as I could find

My personal favorite version of angry birds is the original, no leveling up birds, no transformers, no battles version. Angry birds friends is the closest I could find. Rovio could you please release the old version where there were a bunch of themed level for each land? It is my favorite and it isn’t as overwhelming visually. I would really appreciate it. I mean what’s the harm? You could make it like retro angry birds and tons of people would go for it. I do like how you release new levels that change every few days and you try to score the highest, that adds a fun element but once you get to diamond level, there really isn’t anything to earn, there is no point. Maybe you should release more themed slingshots or add skins for your birds. You kind of level out on friends. I still play it for the changing levels but if it didn’t have that I would have gotten rid of it. Overall it’s a fun game but I would like it if you could take my suggestions into consideration, thanks!

Awesome! Glad you’ve made it tricky! But not TOO glad…

Because whenever I play the game, it feels tricky, then trickier, trickier and so on. Well, OBVIOUSLY it is tricky ‘cause, I mean, if the game was simple, it would be like: you’re on level 37, and then, hooray, you won! How many shots did it take? And you answer: 0. Just plain 0! Can you believe it! I won!! NO, NO, NO! ABSOLUTELY NOT! But I would also like it for y’all to make a little bit simpler? Y’know, for the sake of those who love AB but aren’t really that good at it? But, for those that DO know it? Come on! Make it, at least like, in the middle. Not too hard, not too simple. Just, like, in between those 2 options. But make it hard & simple (in the middle) (at the same time), please. -Luciana, a 10-year-old girl who LOVES the games, but the show, ehh, not too much. (more or less on the show).

Too many ads, too hard to earn powerups, & technical issues!

I have played AB Friends since it started. I LOVED it! Able to move up according to your skill. A couple years ago I stopped playing bc levels became too complex to win without powerups. They also added more levels so you run out of powerups with the extra levels. Unless you pay real money (I refuse) you can’t compete equally with those players who do. I watch ad after ad after ad, and still can’t get enough powerups to beat each level. I would rather pay a reasonable amount for a fair game than watch all the ads. My fave game has become too frustrating to play as is. Also there’s an issue where after shooting last bird, the “End Level” and “Use Wingman” buttons cover up the playing area while the game is still going, so you can’t see what’s happening and then can’t make a decision on whether to use wingman or end the level. This is happening on my iPad since the last update.

Great game but..

Love the game really fun, I love the tournaments. Every time it’s creative and I love when the levels reflect certain holidays. My only issue is recently with this last update I’ve noticed I’m not getting my rewards when I complete a level and get 3 stars. I should be getting 8 coins each time and it shows that I should get it but my coins never update to show the new amount. It’s really annoying, I think I’m owed over 50 extra coins that I never got at this point. Edit: This is like a year later and still having the same issues the coins I should have. Now none of the coins I earn are updating into my “bank”, it keeps playing the little clip where the coins get added up at the end of the weekly challenge over and over and over but when I try to use them while playing a level, my coins aren’t there. Get it together developers my god!

Angry bird friends

I have to admit that i still enjoy playing the six levels a week. I made the decision to play without power ups (or whatever the scoring aids are called) so it may limit my scores some. I had some problems a month or so ago with an upgrade ( original ipad ios 5), but other than that issue the game has worked well and provides a few hours of entertainment a week - generally trying to coax an extra point or two out of the game. I am a bit miffed when the latest update did not work under iOS 5. Lost slingshots and other items, so I,lol play it natural or un enhanced, no more purchases. a continuation the star tournament is compelling, i enjoy the four time a day one on one challenge. i don’t i particularly good at the game, i made star level nine once, but generally hover around level one.

Soooooooo EXPENSIVE !!!

I’ve been playing Angry birds and Angry birds friends since they came out, and for the most part enjoyed it; except when you get kicked out of the game, especially during your highest score😡! This happens every time I play, as well as it freezing up during, or after the ads that are meant to give you free power ups, so then you waste several minutes watching either a frozen screen or it giving you an error so you don’t get the power up, then you have to power off and reload. Rovio has also taken the “Let’s make tons of profits” to a ridiculous level. You are unable to get 3 stars on most levels unless you power up and to power up, you have to purchase coins which are extremely expensive and the higher level you go, the more power ups you have to use in order to be competitive and earn coins. I guess the only solution is to quit playing a game that I have loved for years. Greed is the worst!

greedy dishonest and infuriating

Powerups are anything but, just money spent for nothing. They charge way too much for them, then literally make them useless. The block of dynamite that won’t go off no matter how many things land right on it, or if thrown into a bunch of blocks will only destroy itself. Wingman that should be able to destroy a line of wood or glass blocks stops after two and just spins till it disappears. Close the app and when you come back you will have lost some of them, and clear the whole screen of every single thing but still be a hundred thousand points from the top score, how is that even possible? I am not a beginner nor stupid, I am a player, have won every tournament I have played, till now. I played this tournament for hours and every time, the power ups would not work or if they worked, my score at the end would be way lower than it was when I scored without any power ups. I have gone from liking this game to literally hating this game. I will never play another Rovio game.

Still has major issues and bugs after years of updates

I have been playing this stupid, money grubbing game for over 6 years, and they same goes for the last review I just read. Rovio absolutely does not care about fixing any of the issues I’ve reported over a dozen times. The spinning rewards wheel, for example- they “yeah, you get an extra spin per day”! Totally bs…more than half the time, you watch the stupid ad, then sometimes you get two spins like you’re supposed to, half the time not. Same with the supposedly three different free birds if you watch the ads- sometimes you get three, but more often than not, you only get two. You can switch back and forth more than a dozen times before you see the third free bird and then it just disappears. Same goes for the three “free” birds in the coin section…very “sneaky”- sometimes you click back and forth over and over again, but you still probably only get 2 free birds, even if you sit through the ads. Beyond frustrating! Shutting down the app, rebooting your iPhone, none of these things fix the problems and issues. Total waste of time and money. I totaled it up and I was spending over $3000 a year! I was only compensated once for a bundle I bought and paid for and didn’t get. Horrible Customer Service and Tech Support to boot. Save your money and your lives! STAY AWAY- TRUST ME…it’s not worth the thousands of dollars for this time wasting/ addiction game. Not worth it. 0 stars

Please fix

I really like this game but it's constantly kicking me off. I lose my free birds after an add, the birds randomly shoot off without me touching the screen. I lost my high score constantly. I even lose my mini games due to the ads kicking me offline. I get high ranks, like 1st, 2nd or 3rd, but it gives me 17 coins as it shows I'm in last place, even when my scores are in the 1st - 3rd high scores. Please fix this. I'm tired of being kicked offline, losing my ranks in the tournaments and I need those free birds... I watch those endlessly irritating ads, at least let me have those needed birds, slingshots, etc. I can never get past 4th or 5th treasure chest in the mini tournaments, because I get kicked off and have to start from the beginning... over and over. It's beyond frustrating.

Fun to play, but Ad-greedy

I do love to play this game, however lately they have been playing more and more ads. Now, in addition to the ads that are optional for you to watch to receive bonuses, etc., Now they shove ads down your throat and between the matches. It is one thing to consent to watching an ad to get an extra bonus, however being forced to watch ads on top of the other ads is getting to be a little too much. And many of the ads are not appropriate for all ages so if you have children playing this game, which I’m sure that they do, they will be exposed to inappropriate ads. They clearly do not care where the ad revenue comes from as long as they are shoving the ads down your throat continuously. Stop being so greedy, I’m sure you make enough money as it is, stop it with the unskippable ads!

Fun time kill but have some suspicions

I have played this game for a few years and find it fun. I don’t play against anyone, so my competition is computer-matched. There are patterns in the strength of my opponents. For example, the first game after losing it is generally easy to get at least two out of three stars. Many times after winning game 1, the game 2 opponent is much more difficult. Higher levels of competition is good, but there are times when the opponent score is beyond possible. For example, I just got beat by over 2 million points and there was maybe 200,000 points left for me to get (I would share a screen capture if I could). It seems to me as though the computer is making the game 2 matches extremely difficult or impossible. Why? I can only reason that it’s to avoid the higher bird coin payouts for higher levels of games.

Way way way way way way too many ads

Maybe I’ve got a version that’s different from others, but the ads pop in every 4 or 5 or so minutes and some are not easy to get past once you sit thru it…and seem to last a few mins each time. I honestly get so annoyed I wouldn’t try the games they are pushing just because they are so annoying. The AB Friends game is awesome and the tournament and levels are always challenging and different…never boring. But the constant ads really take away from the games…I get that they help pay for the outstanding programming and development on the game, but it’s way way way way way too much. Would rate it 10 stars if the ads didn’t constantly disrupt the games. Sorry.

Really good…but a bit bugged

This game is really fun and even has some old features from the old AB games like the sound effects and extra points when you have some leftover birds , but it has some glitches one being that sometimes when you complete one level with three stars and then when you move on to the next level you don’t see any stars on the level but then again the game will correct it’s self when you complete the next level so it doesn’t matter too much (oh and they redesigned Hal for like the third time I mean second design was looked good to me so I don’t know why Rovio changed Hal again but it looks kinda ok I guess.)

Pay to win, just like all the other new rovio “games”

This game is like getting a glass of freshwater after having drank saltwater. The saltwater being angry birds 2. At least that’s what I used to think when I first downloaded this game. I had high expectations, but with the addition of Star cup brawl the pay to win factor could not be more obvious other than a disclaimer stating that they will try to rip you off from the beginning. I presume that this game used to be fun but just like angry birds 2 succumbed to the power of corporate expectations. (look out Disney, you’re next) It’s not even the advertisements that make this game almost unbearable. It is the fine tuning to subtly destroy your chances of winning. I suggest buying the rovio classics angry birds (as that has received much better reviews) instead of wasting your time here. I truly am disappointed that angry birds had to turn its path to the way of “money, money, money.”

Great game that continues to make ads more important than customers

I’ve played this game for many, many years and have loved having it be a part of my life. But, lately within the last number of months, it has gone downhill making it show how the advertisers and making money is more important than the customer… 1. When you finish any level, you get prompted with an ad to spend coins buying a bird to “get a higher score” because your score isn’t the #1 top score. So, when you finish a level, you can’t just move on; they warn you every time and want you to buy coins. 2. It is more and more difficult to watch and ad to get a boost of some kind. There are fewer and fewer opportunities to watch an ad and get a prize, and them still having a bird where you win nothing on the wheel makes it even more frustrating. So, if you want to get boosts, you now need to spend money on it because there are fewer and fewer opportunities to just get them. 3. Put those two items together, along with levels starting to be more complex, it just makes it difficult, where it’s easy to give up. Take care of your customers and make the game more enjoyable, not harder to achieve items, spend more money, and be bothered over and over again because they’re not #1 on everything.

this one & match3

of all the AB versions, it’s got to be a tie between this one and AB-match3. but, it’s close. they are both great games on two different games formats. the only problem is how small everything is. i mean i’m not on a 4s or something. they screen size on my iPhone11 has plenty of play area. the tiny little pigs are sometimes fun to find, but the birds are so small, that i have to waste a few, and then start over if i want to know which ones they are, when my sound is off. all part of the fun, really, but it gets to be frustrating during tournament play, because you don’t get to start over, and it can KILL a streak if you play a bird wrong. but, all in all, this game is a blast! thanks, dev’s. keep ‘em coming! (can’t wait to see the new head-t- head set-up!)

Glitches

The BEST games Rovio putout were the original Angry Birds and it’s clones: Seasons (my favorite), Space, and Rio. I had quit playing all the newer Rovio games, the ones that came out after Rovio was bought out, because they weren’t fun anymore. They were fancier, the programmers and animators worked very hard on them, but they weren’t FUN. After a few years I decided to try Rovio again (Covid shut-downs making me desperate?). This game, Friends, plays like those originals, and WOULD BE fun if …. If only they didn’t glitch. As a “for instance”, slowing down and/or freezing so that the level must be started over, or the best solution (like hitting a blinking light) doesn’t work, so a 3 star score isn’t possible. Come on, Rovio, you have had a chance. If I find one more glitchy level you’re done for another few years. P.S. To those players who complain about spending too much on power-ups…. I am an old lady -almost 80 years - have played 60 levels, and only on the horribly glitchy level 60 did I need a power-up to pass the level. In the latest tournament that I bothered to take part in, I was 3rd place with no power-up used. I advise you stop complaining about spending money and focus on improving your skills and strategy.

Goodbye, good riddance

Downloaded the latest version today and it won’t open, I closed it and re-opened it multiple times and it would never open. Decided to delete it and reinstall. Don’t do that unless you’re connected through Facebook or whatever because all the levels I’ve played since this game was introduced are now gone. The tournament before this one the developers started putting in ads when you try to advance to the next game; they also started putting an ad between games in the star cup. I guess they aren't getting enough income from people buying power ups so they have to force you to watch even more ads than you’re already watching. Rovio, I have spent money to buy power ups. I can find more things to do with my money than give you my cash. I can waste my time doing something else besides playing your games. All of your games are now deleted from my tablet.

Alright this game is kinda good

This may be the closest game that we get to the classics and I like that but in case you did not know Rovio people like the old games WAY more than the ones we have now. This game is good overall though. But I think you would get WAY more downloads if you brought back the old classics like the first game, the Star Wars game, Angry birds Go! And the a lot more like Seasons, Angry Birds Epic! And Angry Birds Fight which I think at this point you guys forgot about the game but for real if you won’t do it for just 1 person then do it for the MILLIONS of people that prefer the classic games. Please Rovio I know you want to update the newer games I’m not saying to update them I’m just saying to bring them back but for now you won’t see me playing much angry birds

Game is getting worse as Rovio gets greedy

I’ve been playing this game since the beginning and it’s hard to believe how fast it’s gone downhill over the last couple years. First, the gameplay was changed to promote the use of maximum power ups. It’s almost impossible to get winning scores now without using power ups to collect all the items that are added along the bottom of the game levels. After the recent update glitch where the game froze for many people, I’ve lost 10 years of progress and over 23,000 bird coins. Literally had to start over. Once I got the game working again, I was disappointed to find that the power up wheel has changed, for the worse, and that random ads are now put in between levels that provide no reward for watching. It’s almost like the original developers sold the game to someone else who is just trying to milk it for all they can.

Disappointed

I have played this game for many years getting up to level 7 and most times being in the top 10 and have won at least three times. I mistakenly deleted the app and reinstalled it, but had to start from zero. The new version I am playing is, at least to me, a above average player, is designed so you must buy the extras to have any chance to compete. I know this game inside and out and I will say that the scoring is ridiculous. Where I would be on my deleted version in level 7 in the top 5 to10, I am now in the 30’s position. My point is not where I am, but disappointed that I have to spend money whereas before I spent money to move up. This version is not worth the trouble to compete as even when i would buy the points, increase my game points, I only move up1 or 2 places. I want the developers to make money, but this has become a losing venture and no longer fun

Exciting concept but poor design, very expensive game

The concept of the game and animation is very good. But more designed towards increasing their income. The birds don't have much power unless enhanced using a sling or magic poison for each occurrence of a level. And the pigs are out of reach in some levels and requires more power ups. The cost of the in-app purchases keep increasing almost every couple of months. Also, Sometimes the rewards don’t get credited after watching the full ad. This game has become monotonous and boring to play. They have made more difficult to play in the name of challenge. And if we get good at it, they promote and increase the difficulty level. I used play the game to reduce stress but It’s no longer fun to play. Just moving on. I would now give less than 2 stars.

Pay to Win

This is classic, old-school bird-flinging fun. Be aware: “Friends” is a pay to win setup. In tournament mode, levels are filled with extra points (diamonds, etc.) for those who are willing to constantly buy power-ups…and there is ALWAYS someone willing to spend more money than you. In regular mode, some levels are impossible to get 3 stars without power-ups, especially as you get higher up the tower. I don’t begrudge them making a profit. This gets spendy fast if you care about your place on the leaderboard. I’d rather pay $10 for the game and have it be purely based on skill. I’ve been playing AB since it came out. This version is fun and uses the original physics of the game. Wish they’d also bring back the orbital and modified physics from Space and Star Wars.

I’m ok with friend birds but new things are hard to get

I like friend birds but the problem with it is when I don’t know what to do with the end of the level. And the game makes you think that you can just buy things and the problem is solved but instead of the problem being solved you just can’t get anything new. And being on like level 30 you have 0 new things and you don’t have the money to buy anything new. And then people start making fun of you because you don’t have any type of new slingshot. When you complete friend birds you don’t have anything that is better then the stuff you started off with. Sure that’s impressive but then the game just goes a lot slower then usual.

Angry Birds

The game can get addictive. However the update has ruined the game. Number of times the damage is not consist with the birds you use and that part is frustrating. The new updates have resulted in the game crashing/ freezing up and this leads to you missing out on your high score, on coins and losing your birds, basically you are literally losing money with no return. Mini tournament has a strange and questionable scoring, in which you could score a very high number, with almost nothing left to destroy and then your opponent’s score goes up as soon as you are done, as if you are playing directly against the computer and no matter what you will lose and the hope in the process you spend money for more to upgrade your birds, now add in the game freeze that always occurs after the your score and as stated you lose out on your score and the birds you purchased to get that score. Could be an intentional glitch :(

Love them Birds

Takes your power ups at times due to glitches and loading but they give it back on the daily spins with ads. I played since it started and it has changed a bit. I play on diamond level 7-9 back and forth. I’m in first place sometimes 33 place at times but it depends on how you figure out each stage. The winning is really up to you I have tried different things for each bird sometimes you get it and sometimes close is good enough. Play the levels without power ups until you find the highest score then figure out your power ups after to save yourself from loosing time=money

Not A Happy Camper ☹️

I’ve been playing this game for years, competing with a friend in all the tournaments. We’ve had a great deal of fun, & would like to continue. A major problem is that the recent restructuring of power-up offerings has pretty much ruined things. For example, it’s no longer possible to opt for one type of power-up—now it’s necessary to get them in bundles. That means that if they‘re used unevenly, a player is stuck with a collection of less frequently used items. Also, the option to watch videos to obtain power-ups, outside the actual gameplay area, is gone. For players who can’t afford to spend a lot of money, this is a real problem. It should also be said that the person I play with has experienced serious problems with being able to access the game @ all (he plays on desktop, I play on my phone). This is all very disappointing, & I’m going to miss playing Angry Birds Friends. ☹️

So frustrating

This has become an impossible game to play. I have always loved it, and have played it for as long as it’s been out. But now the developers have added so much, that the prize is no longer work. I can’t count the number of ads. I have watched only to have it tell me there’s a connection problem. And then I don’t get the reward. I have reset, I have bought a new router, I have done everything I can to make sure that it’s all connected. But none of the other games I play have this problem. So I am at the point I am probably just going to delete it from my device. Also, the developers put that weird thing at the bottom left corner, which is the icon for whichever bird is up, and it’s exactly where I rest my hand in between plays so it stops all action. I don’t know why that’s there.

Fun Game…but

It clearly rigged in several manners. I don’t understand why they bother to rig it, but it’s clear that they do. Sometimes, the birds are noticeably less effective. Other times you loose a tournament when there’s no way you could have gotten enough points to win because there isn’t enough hardware left to damage. Two or three wood blocks aren’t going to make up for a 300,000 point difference. I have multiple screen shots of such examples. Finally, the latest has been the program crashing on the sixth tournament level when you are about ready to win. Once or twice is perhaps a coincidence, but dozens of times it crashes at just that level and no other level is just too coincidental. And always crashes AFTER you watch the ad.

Please read

Ok I do have a question it happens to me a lot when I pretty much demolish everything but maybe a block or two I’m still in 24 th place now why is that when everything else is gone except 2 things I’m in 24th place I am very agitated with this game cuz of that bull crap but I do love this game even though to me it seems like it’s rigged for other people to win I should make it a 0 star game but I like it it happened to me twice yesterday never should’ve of been 24th on the one game everything was demolished but 2 blocks and I’m in 24th spot wow I was mad I wanted to delete this game but like I said I love this game I’m done with rant have a good day now I will always play this game cuz I love it

Player vs Player

In the player vs player mode where there is competition, the thing that I hate is that I will finish my round and supposedly the other player has finished their round, it shows the scores and the person that I am playing against has mysteriously gained tens of thousands of points from somewhere. It’s hard to compete when you don’t know what the actual score is. This problem has gotten worse with the latest updates. The other problem with this game is still the ads. The same old ads over and over for the worst games possible. The crappy farm game. The “Matchingson Mansion” (or whatever the name is). I know that these companies are paying money for these ads but you guys should be able to pick at least some good games/companies to be shown.

Ads are relentless

I’ve been playing this for several years. You would get an ad pop up now and then. But the frequency of the ads popping up has become relentless. It’s now every time I open up each of the levels to play. And the star tournament you open up each of the 3 levels go to throw a bird , next thing you know an ad pops up and you can lose points because you can’t see where the bird you just threw went. I know you have to make money with ads being the venue, but they are so frequent, repetitive and annoying. I am so tired of seeing any the Age of Z one which I am kind of offended by. Women in bikinis or suggestive outfits shooting guns is disgusting. Also if there is something to hit in the upper left you can’t see it due to the power ups blocking to view. Make that expandable so we can hide it.

Ripoff

Paid $10 for the season pass on Journey without realizing the current season was ending within hours (new user). Literally didn’t use it at all. Emailed support the next day when it wanted me to pay again. When I realized what had happened I owned my mistake but asked for a one-time courtesy as a new player and for the pass to be credited to the current season so I could try it out. Their only response was to helpfully reiterate that there’s a timer in the game that tells you when the season ends. Which… yes, but again it was my first time playing and it’s Angry Birds, sensory overload much? The various seasons and events and sales screens are confusing and overwhelming. In any case I won’t be wasting any more of my money or time on a franchise that only cares about shaking users upside down by the ankles to collect as much pocket change as possible.

A long term relationship you know you should get out..

I have played this franchise for more than 10 yrs. The original Angry Birds and Angry Birds Seasons were the best versions. I started playing Friends when those were no longer having new levels added. In the years I have played this version, the levels have gotten less creative and MUCH more redundant. The frequency of ads has increased to the point that the game is the intermission between the ads. I have historically been able to earn enough birds to play satisfactorily by streaming those ads until just recently. Now the option for earning birds in this manner is much less frequent (I presume because they would rather you just give them $ directly for birds). You could also earn birds and coins in the “Brawl” section, but for a couple of weeks that has also been nonfunctional. You can play and it will debit your “turns” but you don’t win any reward even if you win your round. It just tells you to play a round to join a season. Yep. That is what I just did. All in all, the developers of this game have sucked all the fun and creativity and problem-solving out of it. So, alas, it may be time to end this less-than-satisfying long-term relationship.

All about the BUCK$$$$$

I have been playing this game for years now and am so frustrated over the changes that have been made in the last few weeks. When all other games have been offering freebies and incentives to play, especially during the COVID-19 quarantine, this one has increased the need to spend money to play under the guise of giving more! 😡 They started out allowing you to use more power ups only to start making the birds slower, weaker and less birds to use than is needed to even make a dent in each level. Even the power ups are slower and weaker but guess what...you can use more of them buttttt you have to purchase them. I’m very disgusted especially considering these game apps are some of the few companies that benefited from the quarantine! Talk about price gouging!! 😡 I’m DONE! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Greedy

I have played Angry Birds (and later all the sequels) since it came out more than a decade ago—since before there were powerups. When AngryBirdsNest was where you’d compete against other players and you had to enter your score for each level manually. But no more. I have had enough. I went to play the Star Cup and after I found out I had won but BEFORE I found out WHAT I had won, AN AD CAME ON. Were you not getting enough revenue from selling power-ups? From selling the Mighty Eagle?? From selling people extra birds??? From your eleventy billion Angry Birds and Pig apps???? I draw the line at being shown ads against my will. It’s one thing to have it be optional, like how you can watch an ad to get an extra daily bonus spin. But if I only have 5 minutes and I don’t want to spend 20% of it watching an ad then I can skip it. NO ADS.

Too Many Ads, Seriously.

When I first began playing this tournament style of Angry Birds, I didn't mind watching some of the ads, as it was an acceptable amount. I really enjoyed playing Angry Birds as a tournament and like the incentives. Now, I get 3 ads in a row! Come on, guys. Don't chase us away with all of the ads. When I get my free spins, it will just be ad after ad after ad until I just go onto another game app to get away from the onslaught. Enough, okay? Also, I feel like I'm not really playing against "real" people because I don't ever see the same names each time. Something not right with that. Also, I agree with Curly. Same thing has happened to me. Okay, I do enjoy this game a lot, but when I find something else I like with fewer ads, I'll be gone.

Screwed up a perfectly good game

The new update is awful. Graphics look like a preschooler game. Screen elements are too large, too ugly. Changed merely for the sake of change, not because they make the game better. Opponents in Star cup suddenly gain more points after a round completes. Frequent loss of connection, with an error message asking if I want to “Reject”. Have to close/re-open the game to continue. Some new rounds begin with the score from the last round, even before I’ve thrown a single bird. Occasionally, in Star Cup, my score exactly matches the opponents score...that’s practically impossible. A few times, I’ve seen opponents score 0 points...even negative points. I'm still playing, hoping for the game to be fixed, because I’ve loved the game for years. But I don’t use (and surely wont buy) any power ups since they’re wasted when crap happens. What a crap fest.

Can't open after last update

Whatever you guys did with the last update, please undo it. I get an Update Available screen. Pressing on the update button opens Safari browser then App Store. In the App Store it shows the cloud to download, if I press on that it says the latest upgrade requires iOS 10 or greater, which I have, but when I press to download then it states I can only download an older version which takes me right back to the Update available screen - it's just a vicious loop. I have repeatedly deleted the game, turned the iPad totally off, have logged in and out of Facebook only to get the same result - can't open the game so I've deleted it and will have to find another game to play with my sister. So disappointed. Your last upgrade for AB POPS messed that game up, too. That'll probably be the next game to be deleted.

unfriendly angry birds friends

for the past 24hrs i’ve been locked out/denied access to angry birds friends — when i try to play up pops a screen with the oh so cute, not, message “OOPS! SOMETHING WENT WRONG. SORRY,” followed by two choices: MORE and OK MORE returns “SERVER DATA ERROR EXPECTED: OBJECT. GOT: NULL FEG4” it’s been very difficult to track down the cause for this error, and seemingly impossible to resolve/fix it perhaps it relates to Facebook ... since i don’t support Facebook, perhaps i’ll never be able to play ABF again? last time i experienced this access denial, i lost a full compliment of slings, many coins and power-ups — a lot of those had been purchased for real $$$ …contacting Rovio was not easy, getting any help not much better — i followed the advice that was provided which resulted in losing all progress (back to newbie status) and no return of items, or $$$, lost Dear Rovio if you require players to go through Facebook, make this known up front. Clearly you’re glad to take users’ money and provide nothing in return, You were once a great provider of entertainment. Now, not so much. Not a stellar way to go, e.g., not Star worthy. ps in case you haven’t heard, Facebook has some serious security issues. How much do they pay you to shovel people their way?

Angry Birds steals my coins and everything!

They say the holidays and into 2019 have exciting new games! Then , due to glitches on both my iPhone and iPad, I have “something went wrong ....sorry “ and I am totally robbed of all I have worked for. I can’t get in to either game. And there is no chance my money will be there if I could ever get back on. This has been my favorite game for years, but I will not give them any more money to start over. Don’t think this won’t happen to you. Avoid this game and all Angry Birds games! It is a total rip off. It is called stealing and in the name of a game. “Oops”, they say to make it okay. NO MORE

Most replay value of any Angry Birds game

I've been playing nearly every day for more than five years. Of all iPad games, this is the one I enjoy most. I look forward to seeing what each new week will bring. My favorite levels are the ones with the cannons, but we haven't had one of those for months. Rovio, make more cannon levels! :) [EDIT: They did, for a recent Pirate Week. Yay! Now make some more!] UPDATE late 2017: The star tournament added recently has been fun to do, but it really should hand out more bird coins as rewards. It could easily become a trap for people who spend too much money on in-app purchases.

A Nice Alternative Fun To Be An Angry Bird Friend

I’ve been playing Angry Bird Friends, and for some reason it works out better for me than Angry Birds. I guess I’m better suited as a friend of the Angry Birds. Anyway I’ve been having a lot of fun; Blowing up, thrashing, smashing those naughty piggies. Always after the prized bird eggs; all the piggies and their evil foreman stop at nothing, building worlds to thwart all Angry Bird Attacks! It’s fun blowing up, smashing, demolishing piggies, and theirs structures. If you’ve tried Angry Birds, and it some how didn’t work very well. If you were great at Angry Birds, or perhaps you never played Angry Birds. Give Friends of Angry Birds a try, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

Star cup drama.

I great game I love the tournament and the piggy tower. The only thing I can complain about is the star cup, the game will NOT let you get to a 6 streak under any circumstances. The early streak levels will be easy but then you will probably get squashed by the opponent from somewhere streak levels 4-6. One level I did great, the next I got slaughtered. The tournament is fun, you try to get the highest scores on level so you can rank higher in the league. It is hard to get in first but it is possible (with the aid of powerups). The piggy tower is also nice but it doesn’t last long, and some of the level are a pain to get three stars 😔.

Cute graphics and animation, but small bugs

Overall very good, but needs fixes. When you are in a level and you have a power up of count 0, the game may invite you to watch a video for a free power up. In this case, the theme music still plays during video advertisement. Similarly, if you do the Daily Spin with an ad, the theme music plays with the advertising video. Similarly, if you choose to watch an ad video to increase feathers on a bird in your flock, the theme song conflicts with the advertisement. There is no option to enable sound effects with no theme music. There is a serious glitch in the Star Cup. I can finish a level, with all my birds used and the opponent’s score stabilized, with me winning, but when I end the level it sometimes bumps the opponent’s score up so I unexpectedly lose! In fact sometimes the opponent’s score remains 0 until the level has ended, and afterwards the opponent’s score suddenly is as big or bigger than my score. This bug is not consistent. Usually the scoring works fine.

Lost its charm -update-

-So the latest way this game screws overs its users is with errors and crashes that rob you of win streaks. Happening at least 3 time every 0 minutes “oops storage error” say goodby to your points and wins.- The game has gotten stupid. First, there is the ridiculous pinpoint accuracy required (talking 7 birds fired in the exact order within 1/2 mm on an iPad screen to clear a level). Then the birds and obstacles don’t react the same way each time (sometimes the balloon pops sometimes it doesn’t for instance). Then it seams to have a built in level of cheating. For instance, you hit the exact spot you’re supposed to but the bird flys off in a random direction. It’s just not fun anymore it’s just an effort in frustration. If your a glutton then by all means please downloads this one.
