Game Basics
"Angry Birds" is a physics-based game, which means that the rules of the real world apply to the world of the game. When you launch a bird from the catapult, its flight path, or trajectory, follows the laws of physics. Birds launched at a 45-degree angle will have the farthest flight path. When you launch a bird, its trajectory is shown as a series of white dots that stay on the screen for a few seconds. Use this aid to help you aim the next bird. Each material behaves differently, too. Glass is the easiest barrier to break, while wood and metal require more effort.
Understanding Birds' Abilities
Each bird in the Angry Bird flock has its own abilities. Since you don̵7;t have a choice which birds you get for each level, you must understand how best to use your feathered ammo. For instance, firing the red bird is pretty straightforward, but tapping the screen while the yellow bird is in flight will make him speed up and do more damage, and the small blue bird breaks into three when you tap the screen. Help screens on the game show you what each bird can do.
Take Deep Breath
Relax. It̵7;s just a game. It̵7;s easy to get caught up in the excitement of all that breaking stuff and fire off your birds quickly just to get through the level. But sometimes taking it slow and easy is the better approach, because those piggies sometimes take a moment before they roll off the edge of a platform. Wait a moment before firing your next bird to make sure everything that is going to break or roll has finished moving.

Game hints, or walkthroughs, are available for all versions of the "Angry Birds: games, including the original, "Angry Birds Rio" and "Angry Birds Seasons", as well as hints for getting those coveted Golden Eggs. Walkthroughs are short video clips that show you a particular level being played.

Take Break
As fun as "Angry Birds" is to play, sometimes you just need to get away from it for a while. If you get stuck on a level or can̵7;t seem to aim a bird properly, put the game aside and coming back to it later. You̵7;ll be refreshed and more likely to see solutions that you missed earlier.
