Just a few days ago, we had reported the appearance of new achievements and leaderboards the “Angry Birds Free” app for iOS. Not to be outdone by a forthcoming update for Angry Birds Space (click here to read about “Fry Me to the Moon”), the update arrived today, bringing Episode 8 to iOS Free users!
A few details:
- Three completely new levels in the “Birdday Party” theme. We have 3 star walkthroughs available for all Angry Birds Free levels, including these.
- One new achievement for earning 3 stars on the 3 levels.
- The leaderboard is now live, so you can enter your scores there.
- Pro Tip! The birthday cakes are worth 3000 points!
Angry Birds Free is currently only available for iOS device.
Finally
I know…..finally.
I never thought they would do this!
Too much IOS and not enough Android. Rovio needs to spread the love! :)
Yea,that’s right!Need more for android!!:D:]
Android gets the full apps for free. iOS pays, so its nice to get some exclusive levels from time to time.
Agree, Android users pay nothing for all four apps, while we have to pay… let’s see…$28? :)
Not sure how you figured 28.
I don’t mind paying if I get everything that other systems or the IOS gets. So I stand by the same statement as before. Charge me whatever but show us some love on Android. :D
At least give us the option rather than sorry, you are s.o.l cause you can get it free. ;)
$1 for each of the apps=$4
$1 for Mighty Eagle (3 apps only)=$3
$1 for Danger Zone=$1
$20 for Space Eagles=$20
Total: $28
And who knows how much for future Space Eagles and future apps… :)
Many of us Android users buy the app rather than using the free one though! :-)
haha, I was going to say the same thing but changed it to my statement above. Even if we pay, we don’t get the same levels. My mom has the nook color for my nephew and they just recently received the update for the Rio Trophy Room and final chapter. They are months behind and that is a paid app too. ;)
All updates will be available for Android.
Well, for Android, it’s all about not being forced to play around, or even to see, for that matter, the lousy ads….
We have iOS have a benefit of paying
1. We have no ads Annoying us (Rovio News is not counted as ads)
2. We get updates first
3.we were first to get the 1st Angry Birds game
Yeah, buying the App is much better than the ads, even on Android! The paid Rio is first to get updated on Android because of a deal with Amazon, but unfortunately with the other versions, the free version is usually updated before the paid.
I would love to see all paid versions updated before free ones, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Rovio makes more money on ads than they do on the .99 paid versions. (I don’t know that for a fact, but the game must be serving up an awful lot of ads).
and pc and mac
In my opinion, the biggest difference between Android and iOS is that iOS has the mighty eagle and the space eagle. If those were avaidable on Android I would definitely pay for the games.
I agree about the ME for paid users. Rovio gave T-Mobile users the ME a long time ago, but the problem is that they haven’t updated that version since Mine and Dine. It wouldn’t be quite so bad if we could purchase the regular version and play the new episodes, but if we install the regular version, it will erase our ME version. (Got that info twice from Rovio).
If they aren’t going to update our ME version, they should at least provide a patch so that our version has a different name than the regular version. That way we would be able to update like other users.
That would be a good idea, the problem is that non-US people cant get the paid version…
There’s no point buying the ad-free of Angry Birds Original, Angry Birds Seasons, Angry Birds Rio and Angry Birds Space because you can only take on airplane mode or turn off the internet on your phone, then the ugly ads do not come!
But then you risk getting viruses…
wooohoo new levels :) cant wait till fry me to the moon also, and has any1 figured out anything about the fat pig or mega pork in ABSpace? i tried tapping on it frozen in level 2-20 but nothing works and rovio sais its top secret info and if they told me the birds would have to come after me :P but has any1 gotten it in any level? how about you Slim?
There is nothing new known about the Fat Pig at this time.
ok Thanks ,always the first to help :)
I wish Rovio didn’t give new levels to the free edition. I understand giving new comer a change to play (free edition) and if they like it/purchase the full version but to give “free” brand new levels makes no sense. The true/hardcore fan (who pay) should get these new levels 1st. Just saying
24 levels in AB:Free. Over 300 in ABo. I see no issues.
i agree, and ab free is obviously free, so whats the problem, if you already have the full ab and you get ab free, you have all the levels, including 24 extra and new exclusive levels free :) but i guess they should put them in the full game, because we had to pay for it so i cant argue on that part :)
The problem is I shouldn’t have to download ABOF just to play 3 completely new levels when I already purchase the paid app. It makes no sense to have a paid & free app of the same game on my ipod, it’s waste of space. I’ll stop complaining now.
I think all of the 24 levels of AB Free are unique to that app, not just the three new ones. Free is free, so I do not understand all the complaints.
Unrelated, but not in a bad way, how come you havent included the white bird or awesome orange bird on the top of the page with the other Birds?
Can’t add everything.
I think that’s just laziness talking…
We are incredibly busy here and don’t see adjusting the header as any sort of priority
ok sorry, i know how hard you work to make and keep this Site running with bird leader, fujitoast and all the others, just thought all the birds should make it up there, but i guess they all wouldnt fit anyway :)
sorry i was meant to reply to your comment above, can you fix it?
It’s alright. We’re always working on adding more content, but there are some things that just can’t seem to climb on the “to-do” list. Rovio keeps us too busy ;)
So they are paying some attention to one free version. Did they ever update the seasons or Rio free versions? Since there was no space free version I figured they had dropped that.
I doubt
I think Seasons Free and Rio Free are on the back burner. I haven’t heard much about a Space Free… perhaps after a few more episodes are released? Not sure.
And what about angry birds seasons? Please udapte. And make an angry birds space free version.
We don’t make the app.
Fun new levels. 1st level was a little bit of a challenge to 3 star. Took about 45 minutes for all three.
I agree. The “free” game should not be seen as “easier” by any means. Some of these levels are tough…
Yes the levels is tough.very tough.i don’t think the pigs create a tough building
That’s good it got an update
I brought all of the free versions for angry birds
What is wrong with Rovio? No updates for other gadgets except for IOS?
Besides that huge release of Space on four simultaneous platforms and both Chrome and Facebook updates?
Really!? I use Chrome and IOS
Never Mind. Plus Chrome only released Easter Eggs
I just got the update for that today and I’ve already beat those new levels. Got 3 stars on all of them.
hello when is the surf and turf update coming for pc ?
Not known at the time but will be available soon!
Although I woudn’t normally post links to image sharing sites, I think this one’s worth it! :)
Lol, that’s awesome!
Nice picture! That one’s worth it!
Haha! Thanks for the laugh Laurence!
will Angry birds nest get some Angry birds free with magic level walktroughs, just curious :)
We don’t have any Nokia devices, sorry.
Something funny:
Upon replaying ABO Free, I decided to revisit some older levels… Levels with yellow birds.
This is my first foray back to the older games after playing AB Space since the 22nd of March, and I can no longer use the yellow bird correctly because I am so used to the Lazer bird!
The first time I slung the yellow bird, I did so without much thought, then tapped where I wanted it to go. Clearly this did not work, it just accelerated over everything… As it should. I reset, threw the first non yellow bird perfectly and was about to get a much higher score. Then I shot the yellow, and again, I forgot to aim it and pointed where I wanted it to go. After I few times, I finally remembered to aim the yellow bird, but it took about 15 minutes to get the hang o it again.
Anyone else experience this? I used to be able to get yellow into the tiniest cracks and crevices, and while my aim is getting better, I’m still not as precise as I was before Lazer spoiled me.
It happens to me all the time! I play both the regular AB games and the space game, and I’m always getting it wrong in one game or the other!
When I went to ABO Free, my first thought was: What does this bird do again?
LOL the very same thing happened to me, and I thought to post it, but I then stopped and thought “it’s probably only me”.
ALWAYS Happens To Me
Oops, that ain’t good! :-)
Yes, I finally got the trophy room update on my droid, so I went from space, and iPad, back to earth. It took a little time to get use to playing again. My perspective was off, and I expected the birds to behave differently. :)
It isn’t just yellow/lazer that throws me off. I keep looking for angles to take advantage of the gravity pull. But those earthbound birds just don’t curve around….
Happens to me too, but only for the first few minutes from when I start playing.
And now I forgot how to use the lazer bird.
Finally! I had 11 out of 12 achievements and I couldn’t figure out why I was missing one… well, this post is the answer!
I don’t know if you realize this but those who complain about ads can remove them if they play the game in Airplane mode. Just thought I would share that in case many of you didn’t know that.
Great point – it’s a better playing experience not to have the ads in the upper right part of the screen.
All angry birds version are released.But when is Angry Birds Star Wars or Rebels release?
I don’t think anyone even knows if Rovio is making one.
These are 100% fanon. There has been no sign that Rovio plans to create such apps.
yet you must think angry birds rebels would be pretty cool,right?
You’d have to ask Lucas if he would trade his lightsaber for a slingshot ;)
Lucas may have too many dollar signs in his eyes though.
They should partner up with star wars (I dont like star wars) and put like a little bonus mini-game in angry birds space,where you have to destroy the deathstar with darth piggie in it XD
will the angry birds Classic version have the 3 extra levels? they look nice!
These are exclusive to AB:Free, which is a separate app for iOS devices only.
@amslimfordy since the mine and dine update,my cousin’s AB:Free always crash,he never played since then,the device is iPad 1st gen,after you press the icon,it goes to the app,then bounces back to the app screen,any suggestions?
My suggestion would be basic troubleshooting: Clear the multitasking bar, restart the device, etc.
Uhh… what is a multitasking bar and where it is?sorry,don’t know much,his iPad has been restarted over 10 times,still not working
Double-press the home button. It shows all running processes.
Free apps are good.
For those that cannot afford a paid app at the present time, a free app may assist the individual in making the decision of whether to purchase the full version.
The free apps are also the “teaser” to spend the money to purchase the paid full version.
How do you get level 8 (viii)
If you are using an iOS device with Angry Birds Free, it should simply be available as an update in the AppStore.
How long for PC, Super Smart Slim?
Angry Birds Free is not available in PC.
So, for platform?
It’s available for iOS only.
@faoibanish, please show some respect. Slim spends a lot of time helping everyone, you included.
I am sorry about that. I was wrong to type.
Indeed, condensending attitudes will not be tolerated.
