Our strategy for Beach Volley level 5-8 is to fire the Blue bird head-on into the ice blocks of the left tower. Follow suit with a Yellow bird into the heart of the left tower, clearing all marmosets within. Fire the last Yellow bird through the marmosets of the right tower to finish the level. The score in the video below is 77,690.
If you have a different strategy feel free to leave a comment below; however, don't just post your score via the comments, as that's what the leaderboards are for.
I used 3 birds and got 74,990 pst and still only received 2 stars….wth!
I think you just missed. I think (but I’m not positive) that three stars is 75k
thanks, i will have to try it after i charge my phone. hopefully it works this time!
Just got two stars with 75.310
Looks like a bit more is needed.
Anyone else get the gravity-defying board moving upward after the first hit on the front structure? Weird glitch on my iPod.
I get the same thing. Bizarre.
Yes I saw that too!
87920
Destroy the right building first, then finish with the 2nd bird.
I think is the best way to go.
First bird just over the first building, touching the grass and split to destroy as much as possible second building and 2 marmoset . Second bird destroy first building. 80400 for me at the moment, but much better is possible.
Just edged you out following your method and popoetbubu’s suggestion to touch the grass in the way by). 90,000 may be possible with a 2-birder.
Thanks! Used this for the current HS!
I think a one bird solution exists (hitting with blue bird left corner of second building)but is somehow connected with “antigravity board” (the upper right board) mentioned before. Until now, with this method I succeded to destroy both buildings except one monkey. Worth try until maybe this dies too.
while trying the same method,,got 89200..destroyed all the monkeys in the first buildind xept middle one then destry remaining one and get destruction bonus…..n move on 2 the 2nd building….
I found this to be possibly the most excruciating level in Rio. I had an endless parade of scores in the 73-75k range using both of the main methods described in the comments (including some that used all four birds!) before finally getting a lucky shot with the third bird (video method) that caused a lot of damage. 82170 is plenty for me – I’m never touching this level again!
Incidentally, I’m quite convinced that the reason for the “antigravity board” effect is that they actually had to alter the parameters for that one piece in order to keep the structure from toppling immediately. You can probably see that absent any trickery, there’s no way that the first structure could possibly support itself at that angle. So there’s another reason to hate this level: they had to sabotage the physics to make it work.
I’ve been going back through all the levels replaying them to have a score greater than the average score posted on the leaderboard. I’m still trying to figure out if the one bird solution posted by tatake is doable since no one has posted anything about it.I’m trying top improve a 76,940 to something greater than 80,000.
I knew posting would help. :) Got 70 more than I targeted: 80070.
That board is crazy!!!! Lol I didn’t really see what everyone meant by the gravity defying board…I swear it just fell, stood straight up and glided to the left without teetering…and ended up in vertical position without ffaltering at all! Weird.
theres a ghost monkey holding it lol.
haha, its really quite creepy sometimes! Unfortunately, it hasn’t really given me a very good score yet, but i really dont like this level, so i think i’ll stick with 3 stars and accept below average!
lol same here, I got the 3 stars and never played it again.
I don’t even remember how :D
Definately worked best by destroying second structure first…talk about a ghost in the machine, several times after I destroyed second structure, some of the top of the first structure fell with out anything even touching it! Weird! but the time I got my highest score of 81040 this didn’t happen, so anyway second bird seems to cause more debris points if you send it thru first structure right at the top of the bottom vertical wood plank just were it meets at the wooden triangle corner, if you notice the vertical wooden plank is a little thicker and then it thins out right there as it meets up to make the left part of triangle, the wood thins that’s the spot to hit it at.
Had to replay all of RIO due to update in phone and losing all my scores. However with the second method I got 81120 after only a few tries, this was a relief after countless 73-75k using the first method.
too bad a good 1st bird makes the front structure collapse and makes a good score impossible. I hate this level for that!
Yes, I took first place with two birds 87980 This is the video how I did it

Congrats on top place on a rather tricky level! Also thanks for the video – I’ll try and improve my score using this method! :)
Thanks Laurence and good luck
79380, I hit the ice with the blue birds, and then sat there and watched the antigravity board do its thing. I took out the second monkey, and a lot of the first structure. Then I finished as in the video.. It did take awhile for the weird board to turn all the over but interesting to watch.
Oops. It took out not I. On the 2nd monkey, and structure. Sorry should have read that better before posting.
76390 in Two–3 in 1 Blue to Rear Tower, aim for middle horizontal wooden plank~pop to 3 birds last nano-second before impact…tower destroyed. Yellow to bottom wooden, First Tower– aim for the perpendicular angle _|, Front Tower birds destroyed–most of first tower destroyed.
