Golden Eggsteroid #7 is located on level 4-16 of Angry Birds Space Utopia. The Golden Eggsteroid is hidden in the bushes directly underneath the slingshot. Burn the blue bird then fire the lazer bird backwards to get it. Once you hit the egg you’ll immediately be transported via a wormhole to the level, which pays homage to the 1960’s board game Kimble. One strategy for 3-starring this level is to fire the red bird at the bottom TNT while popping the top pig closest to the slingshot in the process. If needed, fling the next red bird around the top hitting the lollipos while taking out the bottom pig so the tower of pigs smashes into the planet.
If you need help, the video below shows the location of the Golden Eggsteroid a strategy for passing the level with 3 stars.
What classic game does this Eggsteroid stage allude to? Looks more like a board game (Ludo?) than a video game.
We haven’t come to any epiphanies yet. 7-for-8 so far :)
The only thing I can think of is not a video game, but a cross-and-circle board game.
Fairly sure it is meant to reference a board game, my guess is Trouble. Similar layout with the corn kernels representing the board, the birds being the four different players and the pigs being the goal. Can’t think of any video games it may be, but I’d say it is likely a board game of some sort.
Yeah I agree, Eggsteroid 7 really looks like Trouble and it’s pop-o-matic mechanism.
Eggsteroid 8 has a clear reference to Tetris.

wow, good eye
I agree. It looks like “Trouble”.
I agree too, but I found another possibility. It MAY be a videogame, but I forgot the name. All I know is that you have to connect the dots that appear on the sides of the screen, not letting the hill of dots overpass the field. It appeared in Mario Party DS, in “Puzzles”. If anyone knows the name, please help me remember it.
My first thought was the board game “Aggrevation”, which as a child, we simply called marble game, but the correct name was “Aggrevation.” Everyone had a post as in this level, with different color marbles and you rolled the dice and moved forward and could “butt” players out if your number landed where they were. Kinda like killing the pigs, we are “Butting” them out! Anyone agrree? @amslimfordy, @sal9?
I loved that game.
Here is an easy way to get a score in the 130-134K region: 1) First bird to the TNT through the piece of popcorn and the pig. This normally leaves only one stack of pigs standing. 2) Second bird to the purple mushrooms, it will destroy them and jump up and kill the rest of the pigs. After getting scores in the low 130s many times this way, I got lucky once and everything fell after the first bird giving me 138K.
Got 134,660 using your method Annach, thank you.
136840 – one bird. A popcorn found it’s way around the ‘top’ and dropped next to the right of the upper right stack of pigs. Still had the mushrooms and lollipops left(bummer)
I had been doing step one just like this.
Thanks for providing the second step – worked like a charm!
Gave me a 6K bump to 135K.
I got 136k with a 2-birder, second bird cleared the mushrooms and lollipops. Thanks! :)
@annach Thanks for the strategy, gotover 138k using it.
Thanks @annach Got 136k this way!!
Aiming tips (all for igniting the TNT):
1. aim to the upper edge of the nearest southern corn, just that a liitle dot of the corn remains above the aiming dots
2. aim more south at the joint between the long glass/ice block and the long wood in the TNT tower. As i can see, this aiming point does more in this level. More objects got in contact and i got several 1-birders for 135k. One of the exploded corn flies to a corn about north-north-east pushing one corn down to the still existing column. Never got a third bird right for the 2 mushrooms and the two lollypops.
…and remember, same shot gives different points, as you see in many angry birds levels. I got a range from “didn´t work” to 132k up to 138k.
Thanks to @annach for the general idea.
@liontooth followed your strat, and strat of @annach
Scores in the 140’s are obtained after having a one-birder followed by (quickly) flinging through the mushrooms and lollipops.
With one-birder I meant all the pigs killed. Then quickly fling #2
138840 with two birds as described by @annach. Second through mushrooms and both lollipops.
@annach thanks for the great strat! My 140k was with 2 birds, I had 82k after the 1st shot. Hard to tell where all the extra points came from, but I did get one of the turnips on the 2nd shot, red rolled through to get the upper one.
@annach thx your strat worked great, heres an aiming point for shot 2 because many times I tried and failed with just hitting the purple mushrooms. Its hard to see at least for me but if zoom in on my pic you can see it.

hope this helps anyone having trouble finding the right aim.
here the same, many thx to @annach
first bird to the tnt, target is the top-right-edge
from the stone, right from the tnt
second bird to the mushrooms, target is the top of the left mushroom
bird jump to the lollypops
here a video with 140k:

I got fooled by this level… I thought the other birds are usable… I waited for any bird to come to the slingshot, then I saw that I failed the level…
Same here. When I used all 4 birds to pass this level, I though I would get 120000 bonus points for extra birds.
me too..i thought:”with this many birds left,i’ll have the top score”
The birds must be representing each player, and we must be playing for the red team.
second time where there are birds on level that are not usable.
first time was in golden egg-1 in angry birds original.
interesting huh?
@amslimfordy: the golden eggsteroid walkthroughs don’t have the same leaderboard info as the regular walkthroughs (average, leader, my score, etc.).
Is this intentional, or a glitch in the Matrix? Thanks!
GE/GESeasons/GEggsteroids are purposely treated differently. We have a couple plans to tweak these in the near future to allow multi-assignment with some nice features, but right now there are no glitches.
For Eggsteroids min-3-star scores, refer to the full guide.
Did anyone else notice that the spots near the pigs represent the 4 first planets?
The top is for Utopia, the right is for Pig Bang, the left is for Cold Cuts, so the bottom must be either Fry me to the Moon or Danger Zone
I figured it out: The Bottom is for Danger Zone, because of the TNT, plus it is really hard to attack that part.
So that means that left is for Cold Cuts AND Fry me to the moon, as they both are basicly the same.
omg you have hawkeyes
Is that some sort of reference to something?
I’m wondering if it’s just me … but it’s really hard to see the aiming “dots” against the background on this level. I’m really struggling to see the last few dots when I’m aiming.
It’s an eye illusion. And I almost have the same problem as you.
You could also hit the building with the TNT in it and it will cause the popcorn to start a chain reaction.
I managed 131690 so far by aiming first bitd thru the popcorn just left of the bottom left pig column and it ignited tnt and took all pig columns out except for the top right. It also luckily got one of the mushrooms which rarely happens, so my score was around 85800 at this point. Then I sent second bird thru the bottom part of the very middle left popcorn just under the “ring” in the background to go through and get one lollipop and remaing stack of top right pigs.
What are those two different icons/logo besides the eagle one ? What does it show ?
Those icons are for the leader board and achievements on Game Center.
They are only available on ios devices.
I got innumerable scores of 137K or less until I started using slightly less then full power. Don’t know if that is the final answer, but it helped me get a couple more K’s.

That one took me ages to reach 143k, but I finally made it. Some randomness arises from the short time it takes for the lower building to reach its equilibrium state (it always woble at level restart). I would say that shooting fast is better, however, it is not clear that anything you may do does significantly increases the odds to get the large turnip which is mandatory to get 142k+ scores.
