Angry Birds Space

There's no denying the fact that Angry Birds quickly became one of the most played video games of all time, especially since it was mostly designed for mobile phones, which made it very accessible. Thus, although the purpose was to provide you with short bursts of entertainment whenever you had a few minutes to spare, the game became a huge success and it is now available on almost every platform imaginable.

Angry Birds Space, as the name implies, takes place into the depths of cosmos, where the swine have built their own colonies and started to cause trouble yet again. This time, however, the birds take advantage of their newly gained superpowers, which enable them to fight back against the threat and dispatch the evil pig overlords with ease.

Although the game looks and plays in a similar matter as the previous titles, the fact that the action takes place in spaces makes for some interesting gameplay mechanics, due to the low gravity gimmick. Thus, despite the fact that asteroids may not have too much mass, they are strong enough to exert a gravitation pull on the birds, which means that once you throw them, they are liable to enter its orbit and perform a few rotations around the celestial body, allowing you to come up with some interesting tactics.

In the beginning, the selection of birds is rather the same as it was in the original title, but the diversity increases as you advance through the levels. Naturally, there are a variety of new species, all of which come with new powers and abilities, which must be mastered in order to take out the enemies in the most efficient manner possible.

Another interesting addition is a new game mode called DANGER ZONE, which supposedly features the most difficult Angry Birds levels that were ever made, guaranteed to give you high blood pressure. As you might expect, though, you are handsomely rewarded for completing them, while also gaining the respect of the community in the process.

In the end, Angry Birds Space stays true to the series and is just as enjoyable as the rest of the episodes, especially thanks to the newly implemented gravity mechanics. You also get to have fun with the new types of birds that are available and make your way through all of the sixteen levels.
