Angry Birds 2 (2015)

early access Android PC Windows IOS iPhone

Angry Birds 2 is a new addition to the popular franchise that offers 140 challenging levels, impressive graphics, and new features. The game may be free-to-play, but it still provides a fun and engaging experience for those who enjoy the bird-flinging puzzle genre. The added picture-in-picture close-up for birds adds a new level of emotion to the game. While there are some freemium aspects, the game is still a solid choice for fans of the franchise.

What could be improved:
