Angry Birds Seasons Mooncake Festival Now Available

The Angry Birds Seasons Mooncake Festival update (v1.6.0) is now available for iOS, Symbian and Android via the Android Marketplace and Amazon AppStore. It’s awesome to see so many platforms get the update at the same time! Hopefully the remaining platforms will see the update soon.

This update includes:

  • 30 new levels, plus 3 bonus levels for tapping the Facebook button all themed for the Chinese Moon Festival.
  • 8 Hidden Pieces of mooncake that when found unlock a special mooncake level
  • 5 new “secret” achievements
  • Pro tip! Red lantern yields a 3,000 point bonus
  • The Summer Pignic Score Addict counter bug has been fixed!
  • The bug preventing users form accessing the Facebook levels in Go Green, Get Lucky and Hogs and Kisses has been fixed!
  • The Golden Egg numbering still shows up on the completion screen and is still incorrect.
  • Bug: No iOS users are receiving the “Bright Side of the Moon” achievement.

Some helpful links:

We will keep this page updated as more platforms come online and the walkthroughs, leaderboards, etc. become available. If you’re interested the backstory regarding this update can be found in our original post.

All achievements are back in Game Center. So they are not secret any more.

Good to know.

By JIm

For some reason, the achievements for finishing Moon Festival (Bright Side of the Moon) and for earning at least 3,264,000 points (Moon Festival — Score Addict) are not registering in the Game Center. The achievements for earning three stars for all levels (Moon Festival — Total Destruction), for hitting 300 bunnies (Bunny Hopper), and for hitting 300 lanterns (Shut the Lights) are registering. I play on iOS. All five achievements are listed. Game Center is simply withholding credit for two of the five.

Score Addict should register, but GameCenter delays upwards of 10 minutes are not unheard-of. Restarting your device can help as well.

“Bright Side” is a known bug and Rovio has been informed.

By JIm

Score addict did finally register. It took a few hours, though.

Another oddity. After I finish a level in part 2, the total Mooncake Festival “score” given for me is far above my actual score (over 4, 100,000). When I finish a level in part 1, the score given is correct (3,272, 540). It’s also correct on the page with the “Mooncake Festival” and other episode icons.

I don’t really care about this. But it is odd.

The “Chapter 2” glitch is also known. It is taking your score from Trick or Treat.

The Mooncake Festival update is not available via the in game method. I am using Nokia C6-01. If somebody knows tell me when will it be available.

By Hudson

It’s no any update neither Update from app nor Ovi Store……Weird it!!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ :(

By cheetahcorp (@cheetahcorp)

In Ovi Store it already says 1.6.0 but I don’t know how to update. There is a green button which says Launch but it only starts the game without the update. Please tell me how to update through Ovi Store.

Rank: Sling God with 32120 points
By AMslimfordy (@amslimfordy)

I think Ovi still needs to push the update through to in-game.

nope, ovi can now update via the ovi store but only if a “newer” version of the store is installed, don’t know which version exactly but when you launch the store it will show you that an update for ovi store is available (if there really is one)

By Hudson

YES!! Updated for my Nokia Symbian phone!!! :D

Did you update through Ovi Store or from the app. Mine still says that I have the newest version but it is not.

I sometimes find FujiToast fairly scary. Mooncake Festival was released on 1 Sep and the walkthroughs are already up on 2 Sep!? Talk about god-speed.

By Dave

Got the update when it came out at 3am this morning and was riding high atop the leader boards in number 1 for a while. It was glorious. P.S. How do people (like the number one guy right now) have over 3,000,000 more points than the next guy? I’m assuming it’s glitching but I’d sure like some confirmation.

Then maybe it’s an iOS only bug.

Rank: Sling God with 32120 points
By AMslimfordy (@amslimfordy)

That may be right. It would align with the iOS/GameCenter bug preventing users from obtaining the “Bright Side of the Moon” achievement for passing all levels.

By Lamia

Well. Just can’t wait anymore. PC needs many updates…i dunno…loosing attraction of this game bcz of this lateness.

For some reason, if you have at least one spare bird left, the level does not finish immediately after killing the pigs, so there is more time for things to fall and explode.

Any help? I have not been able to update my Seasons…I have the paid version through Amazon and have done all the tricks I know (unmount the SD card, remove the APK from the .secure folder). I really want to get the update!

I need help for total destruction in 1-10, 1-11 and 1-12.

In 1-10 my best score is 99% with about 10 blocks left. But another time I had about 3 blocks left and only got 90%. Does anybody know a reason for this?

I also need help in 2-4. Only got 89% with 3 blocks left. What am I doing wrong?

It’s not fair at all…

Rio has had a few updates for PC. My observation has been that PC/Mac update at full episodes, not at half-episodes.

By Lamia

So airfield chase gonna have another episode? I mean another 15 levels? So the moment that ep released in ios and other, pc will get this full chapter?

Hi, in every other episode when you play all the levels through, you’ll get something to fly overt on the “Play, Screen”, you know, like seasons greetings it was present, but what it is in Mooncake Festival?

If you are playing on iOS, we think it is connected to the “Bright Side of the Moon” achievement bug.

Although Rovio fixed the problem with the Summer Pignic counter showing the Halloween score, Rovio now has this problem when playing levels 2-1 through 2-18 of Mooncake Festival; the counter reflects the Halloween score. I am on iPhone4. Somehow Mooncake levels 1-1 through 1-15 give the correct score with the counter. I reported this new bug to Rovio.

Try temporarily disabling your anti-virus software. It may be disallowing the download. Be sure to only navigate to download.angrybirds.com with the software off, and restore it immediately after downloading.

Guys… I got Bright Side of the Moon with my iPod 4th gen! First I restarted Angry Birds 3 or 4 times, and the notice popped up at the bottom of the screen when I clicked 2-4 in Mooncake Festival! However, I don’t see a mooncake flying at the title screen yet…

I’m totally addicted to Angry Birds… How addicted? I went to China for one purpose… to get the Moon Festival levels early! I just returned! I got the levels four days early at a Chinese Apple Store! Yay! I finished them all, but I came here to look at the walkthrough for 2-4 (Total Destruction)
