A good strategy for Ham ’em High level 13-8 is to pop the two pigs on the left with the Red bird. It’s nice to make him feel useful every once in a while. Split the first Blue bird early, toppling the tower and popping the sombrero-wearing pig simultaneous. If needed, loft a Blue bird into the pile of ice to clear the trio of piglets there. The score in the video below is 60,680.
Version 2022:
I’m stuck at 56580. Using the same technique, NOT the same result GRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Whats with the duck? it’s like a solid rock, not breakable
63890 with two birds … Use the first red bird to hit stone holding ice on its side. Will take out first two pigs, destroy most of the first structure and the third pig. Then use the second bird like the third in this method.
Thanks. 60720 on first try. 3 stars. Will try to get higher score. Thanks again!!
Great strategy!
Thanks! There are more chances of getting those 2 left pigs by hitting the smallest stone block head-on. Pushes the structure to the right and bounces the red bird to the pigs.
Two bird solution:
1. Red Bird into small stone block on left. The Red Bird and/or the wood planks kills the two pigs on the left and as Kartflyer mentioned above the structure to the right for that pig.
2. Blue Bird into where the duck resides and activate so the big pig and the three pigs below are hit.
3. Blue Bird = bonus bird
This worked out quite well for me, although I noticed that just before the count-up that something fell/broke at the last second, and I’m not quite sure what it was. Not that I’m complaining, however!
After some efford I pass with 69.740. THX.
wrw01’s method worked great for me! I preferred this one to Dkn’s method since the kill rate for the leftmost birds was higher. In my high score case, the triangular glass block and the cement plank both went into the pit and did a lot of damage before the plank disintegrated. The first of the splitting blue birds did the rest of the job!
Thnks! 63220 on first try 3:D
I got 64360 on the first try! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Now on with my quest.
No video on this one either.
67090 using dkn’s method :)
using DKN’s method as well
Stuck at 57160 using video method. I get the same amount of destruction as shown in the video but not the score. REALLY frustrated. I’ve been trying DKN’s method for a couple of days but can’t clear all of the pigs in 2 birds. Any helpful ideas appreciated especially since this is the last 3 star I need for all of the available level in the android version.
Try to get the red bird to push the horizontal stone with ice on top, as dkn’s method. I just concentrated on getting the block to move and getting the first two pigs with the red bird. I used the first blue bird and got the remaining pigs. Score was 60720, enough for 3 stars. good luck!!
Perseverance paid off with DKN’s method…71990. THANKS!!!
No luck with DKN’s method.. Succeeded 3 times with 2 birds but didn’t top my best of 64,810.. Close as I got was 63K.. I’ll try again later..
How come these videos are using an iPhone or iPod, but the later updates have iPad walkthroughs? (I can tell because the iPad version is HD and is zoomed out more.)
Managed to get all pigs with 1 yellow bird. 87,380!
Launch the yellow bird almost vertical, and aim for the first glass block along the bottom. This blew up both TNT bricks and dropped everything. Dunno if I can repeat it though!
?? I think you have the wrong level here. This is the ABO 13-8 comment board. Not sure what level you’re posting about?? No Yellow Birds in 13-8.
If you give it enough attempts, Dkn’s first shot will eventually do a LOT of damage. In my case, the long stone beam was sent rightwards with enough speed that, after bouncing off and substantially damaging the wood, it ended up falling vertically into the pool of ice, killing the top pig there and breaking up itself. This left me with 29k and four pigs killed after the first shot. The second shot was the obvious – send the blue bird on a high arc and split somewhat late so that the top bird takes out the hatted pig and the other two go into the pool, taking out the remaining two pigs and a lot of ice. This approach allowed me to get 72k.
ugh, just hit the #2 spot. almost back-to-back levels where i have both top spots =)
basically what @austinrhl said. takes a ton of patience. in my case, the long stone beam was cracked and laying on top of the pool. i sent the blue bird on a high arc into the pool, breaking the ice, and then subsequently the long stone beam fell down.
Aww @FujiToast did you write that s
Strategy comment above video? You wouldn’t throw ‘ lil’ red under the bus like that ..I ain’t buying it…
he’s always useful;) not matter how small..it’s his belief in himself that he’s helping the team fight the good fight;) ty for video and all your hard work :) hmm..
I really miss Estarbirds walkthroughs for this episode, on all other episodes I’ve used those walkthroughs to improve my scores.
However, I found this useful video for this level that boosted my highscore to 67k

Aim Red to hit right under the stone horizontal roof, knocking over the glass triangles into the pit of glass to the right. The wood supports will fall to the left, knocking out the two pigs on the left. Then, aim Blue at about a 60 degree angle, and wait to split until he’s just coming over the pit. That should take out the pigs in the pit and the hombre to the far right.
I’m revisiting old episodes.
I managed, after many tries to improve my score here by 270 points. #notreallywortheffort
Stepping away from this one, probably forever.
