There are two strategies for Cherry Blossom level 1-6. One is the obvious left-to-right method, firing a Yellow bird into the first structure, a Blue bird into the second, and a Yellow bird into the top-right TNT. This is very consistent, but challenging to reach the 3-star threshold. The advanced method is to loft the first Yellow bird into the wooden support next to the TNT. Of course, detonating the TNT is ideal, but not ultimately necessary.
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.
87800 two stars
88090 Three star One Bird solution…first yb into the vertical wood next to tnt but tnt did not explode however last structure fell leftward and took everybody out! I think three star minimum is 88000.
yep got the same 3star minimum lovely onebirder ;-)
I got 100,170 with one lucky bird using your method. Yb into block by TNT, whole thing fell to left. Thx!
Thanks Angry Advisor 105k with 1 bird. Is it easy for you to figure out the 3 star minimums?
110.310 using this method. Worked perfect. 1 bird, TNT took out everything.
93430 same strategy as mentioned above but this time TNT did explode ;-)
Actually, if you manage to break the wood only and not the tnt ( immediately ), the tower will lean left and the pressure will then detonate the tnt box. The resulting shockwave will push the debris further down and cause more damage.
Yep, driving the folded up stone structure on far right down through the glass (and flower) seems to yield more damage. I can’t quite manage more than 104k, so am staggered that there appears to be another 10k available on here.
I had been alternating methods, managed to 3 star this one without checking here first. Nice to know that I had the right idea :). I finally got the tnt to explode and scored about 3k higher than when it didn’t explode. thanks for the strategy.
this is best strategy… easily pass 3 star… I’ve tried 3 times and got 95k+ always. thank you
99170 1st bird to tnt!
ACK! I can’t get the bird to the TNT!
Of course right after I post this, I found the angle and did a one-bird. :-)
Actually, the wooden block next to the TNT will suffice. After hitting it the right tower collapses leftwards, toppling the remaining towers, but the TNT only explodes just as the last pig is dead. Got 92,860, like a charm. :)
97,700 one bird method into plank next to TNT. I did get the TNT to explode. If you do this method and the TNT doesn’t explode, it tends to give you around 88,000. I think 100k is possible.
Any ideas on the Mighty Eagle for this one?
It took forever on this one! The hardest of the group. The best way to explain it is kind of go from the video above. Get all 3 colums to fall but not break the glass in between the columns. Then toss the can where it lands close in front of the 1st cloumn. The key was (I think) is getting all the stones and rocks. When I finally got it, the glass and wood triangles (in between the 3 columns) were not even touched (even after the eagle passed) and all the stones, rocks, & flowers were gone. My guess is all items from the “shacks” and flowers are gone & the glass and wood between the colums are left will work. My guess is even if 1 little rock particle lands inbetween the columns and hits the ground, it will not work. It is tough, but do-able. Good Luck!!!
Once I got it, 2nd time came easy. I took the 1st YB into the 1st vertical wood of the 1st column(taking out the red item), making the wood and stones fall. The 2nd BB straight into the vertical glass (tapping it right before impact for all 3 birds to go into the glass) of the 2nd column, and the wood and rocks above basically dropped straight down. The 3rd YB hit the wood and TNT box on the 3rd column. The stones and wood falling to the left. I noticed the both horizontal glass rods right below the both flowers in the 2 gaps between the 3 columns were NOT broken. I than landed the can close to the left side of the base of the 1st column and got it. It took out the stones and flowers and most of the stuff of the “shacks”. I also noticed the tops of all 3 columns were clear. The glass and the wood triangles in the 2 gaps in between the 3 columns were still there, untouched, and still got the feather.
Thanks so much. Took about six tries to get.
Thank you! I was really struggling. Got it in just a few tries after reading this.
103310 – one yellow bird into TNT as in video. I couldn’t repeat to get higher though. Must have been a lucky shot to get that high, but I will take it! :-)
How do you get to the tnt with first bird…keep bouncing off structers back and forth …getting dizzy;;)
High arc, so when you speed it up, it goes trough the triangle and hits the wood in front of the TNT. Takes a few tries but you’ll get it eventually :)
Yes, the birds are shooting correctly today!! They need to when the shot requires accuracy!!
Awesome…your email must have worked:)
No, still stop and go during flight, and slow motion. I will send another e-mail. :)
Finally I got it after I don’t even knoe how many tries best guess 500…not the highest but never coming back..if anyone sees me here again kick me out lol…
1 Bird. 106590 Method above with the TNT
Was getting very frustrated with not reaching 100k on this level, so I put YB vertical on the slingshot (0 degrees), gave it a tap, lost sight of it until it came down and nicely broke the wood, exploded the dynamite, yielding some decent damage. Go figure!
I CANNOT get the bird into the tnt!! I either hit the stone side of the structure resulting in absolutely nothing, or I take down the middle structure. Maddening!!!
FINALLY! At LEAST 30 tries later, I got it! 108,160 :)
96490 using the tigers nana method :-) I was able to reproduce the shot several times unable to break 100,0000. Great trick tigers!
It’s a tough shot, but possible. The drawback is that minute misalignments, on the order of a pixel or two, have vastly different outcomes on this particular shot.
It seems to help if after blowing the TNT either the yellow bird or a bit of debris can crack the top sheet of glass in between the 2nd & 3rd towers – as the right tower falls left it is easier for the stone planks to break through, fall down & cause more damage. They tend to get hung up on this glass otherwise.
I didn’t find a huge difference between detonating the TNT with the yellow bird or just hitting the wood in front & having the falling stone do it. Oddly, when I got my score of 108k, the TNT didn’t blow at all, but the towers just fell in such a way to destroy almost everything.
The top part of the right tower fell to the right on its own a few times, but this actually made the TNT harder to get at.
@karen68 also reports occasional self-destruction of right tower. Does anyone else have data on this?
@hallieginSB @goavs4 @DonnMega @Nicholas There are 47! people, including you, on this level who have >110K. Any tips on how you got such a high score? Did you benefit from self-destruction?
@mvnla2 I did not ever see self destruction on this level. I played it quite a while ago and from what I can recall, I just kept repeating the same yb shot until I got a decent amount of destruction between the 2nd and 3rd towers.
@mvnla2 same response as @HallieGinSB I am/was unaware of any self collapse on this level. I just kept lobbing y/b between 2nd and 3rd tower till the stars aligned :-) I would mention that a direct hit to the tnt is best approach, you don’t want it to be set off with falling debris, etc.
@mvnla2, just spent 15 mins restarting this level & it happened twice, but again no score advantage, the plank above the TNT pushes left & makes it inaccessible to the 1st yellow. Went on to complete the level, 1st bird into 1st tower, 2nd bird into 2nd tower for scores of 86-88k.
@karen68 — Don’t understand why you get it and I don’t. Are you flinging birds, or just restarting every few sec? How long do you wait before restarting? As I said elsewhere, I think Rovio has inserted a line of code that keeps me from getting self-destruction! I will update forum this evening or tomorrow (whether or not I see it–My seeing the self destruction is not a requirement, just a wish).
@mvnla2, that’s odd that you’re not seeing it. I waited 7-8 sec before simply restarting, although I did fling the 1st bird a few times. The top 2 triangles with the pig between them would start sliding side to side before the whole tower would start to wobble. It’s a really subtle movement at first.
Looks like I am late to the party and I have nothing to add, same shot, keep flinging, no self-destruction used to my recollection. Just one of those AB levels where you do the same thing 200 times and on the 201st shot it all falls just right!
Amazing, on this level, following the video’s instructions, I only had to shoot about 10-11 times until I beat my old score by 11000 points, and yet, on level 3 I’ve been shooting for the past 3 days and it won’t let me go above my old score which is just below average.
We’re at it again @werewolf69 , I too am struggling to improve on level 3 but popped about 10K quickly on this level.
Details for Nook Color:
The yellow bird lob shot. Zoom all of the way in. Pull yellow boy down until there is one “slingshot support width” of space between his left cheek and the support. Release. The timing of the “boost” is all on you. I usually end up boosting somewhere above the right end of the wood triangle at the top of the middle tower. YB often takes out this triangle on the way to his target.
As usual, alter your starting position pixel-by-pixel to find one that works best for you.
FINALLY! I’ve been replaying ABS the last few weeks, trying to beat my old scores, and this was one of those levels that was frustrating me. I already had 3 stars, but my score was under 100,000. After multiple attempts just to get the yellow bird to hit the last tower without missing the middle one, I not only hit the right spot, but detonated the TNT! This is one level I don’t think I’ll revisit again. lol
