However, this is not the case, as demonstrated in the image below. But, what happens when a user smashes the bottom of a tree and removes the snow blocks at the bottom? You would think that all of the snow bricks would fall. These are not too terribly difficult to penetrate.
In keeping with the festive theme, one of the new features is snowblocks. While I appreciate the sentiment of the season with the Advent calendar setup, this does pose an issue for anybody who does not regularly connect their device to WiFi.Īnother problem I had is that the game defies basic physics. There has been no word from Rovio regarding this requirement. If you do attempt to play without a Wifi connection, you will receive the following error. Along with these 16, there were 4 more that were only 3 stars, again due to the WiFi requirement This shows a significant percentage of people who are not in-favor of the requirement for WiFi to play the new levels. As of this writing, there were 37 reviews, and 16 of these (or 43%) were two stars or below. This can be a significant problem, as demonstrated by the reviews for the game. If you’re using an iPod touch or WiFi iPad, you MUST be connected to WiFi in order to be able to open up the new levels. There is one issue with this advent-type approach, and it’s rather big.
This means that the levels are only unlocked as each day arrives. This might be a problem for those of you who are truly addicted to Angry Birds. Keeping with the theme of Christmas, Rovio has chosen to create an Advent calendar of the new expansion. This factor is not a bad thing, since it makes the prospect of the game more challenging. These levels can be a bit trickier to complete. The new portion of ‘Seasons’ includes a Christmas-based theme.
Between the myriad of games, the plush toys and now an in-app payment system, there is plenty of evidence.īack in the fall, Rovio produced a Halloween game, which they have now renamed to ‘Seasons.’ We reported a little while back that Angry Birds Seasons was going to be a free upgrade for current ‘Angry Birds: Halloween’ owners, which is a nice present. Angry Birds has become a hit-there is no argument about that.
