Angry birds star wars

"

Little can be said about the mass phenomenon that this game of spears and destroys has become, and that tries to shoot angry little birds against structuresof all kinds to destroy the chickens that are kept inside. A single word defines it perfectly, addictive."

"

As in the cinema, second parts are hardly ever good, with few exceptions, but the union of Rovio Entertainment with LucasArts to make a new game that takes place in the Star Wars universe has turned out just great."

With the Force we have met

What strikes me the most is the quality of the graphics which is very well cared for. Playing on large screens such as a laptop or a PC is already an advantage over the natural site of this application, initially for mobile phones; and LucasArt's work is very noticeable behind each icon, each image and each special effect that gives a very Star Wars packaging to the entire game.

The omnipresent soundtrack, a version of the one created by John Williams, is excellent as are the sound effects; the beeps, clicks and effects that accompany the actions on the screen give the player full feedback on what is happening at any given time.

Although I have barely been able to dedicate time to passing phases, the first four characters that have appeared are very funny and make the challenges that are presented on each screen a little more complex:

• Bird Kenobi: When flying, if you press anywhere on the screen the Jedi bird throws a push with the force that knocks you down obstacles.
• Bird SkyWalker: With its little blonde hairs, when we are about to hit an obstacle, clicking anywhere on the screen, he draws a lightsaber and with it gives two blows that destroy everything in his way.
• Bird R2D2: When we press anywhere on the screen, the cute little robot - which is the only one that remembers that Anakin is Vader - shoots electric bolts.
• Bird C3P0: This bombastic golden robot has the ability to self-destruct when we click on the screen, turning into a rain of shrapnel that breaks with all.
• Bird Clone Troop: There are different types and capacities, the most difficult being, at first, those that fire bursts of blaster.

And it goes on, on and on, since the number of types of birds that are hidden and that are revealed and added to the game as we go through phases, is very large.

Regarding the scenarios, what has most caught my attention are those that occur in space, in weightless conditions and with ships that generate gravity wells , twisting spacetime and complicating the calculation of trajectories.

In short, a spectacular version highly recommended for those who access angry birds for the first time, and essential for gamers who have already hooked on previous versions. And, in addition, we can buy it in the Windows 8 Store for just under €4
