Angry Birds Web Version Now Available via Chrome Web Store
BOOOOM!!!! An official web version of Angry Birds is now available for FREE! Chrome users can install it as an app via Google Chrome Web Store (direct link to Chrome Web Store), but if you head to chrome.angrybirds.com in Firefox — or any other HTML5 compatible browser — it also works. Note, for obvious reasons it DOES NOT work on mobile devices.
If you need help getting started or with the control scheme check out our getting started video. The controls seem similar to the PC and Mac, so you might want to check out our Angry Birds PC & Mac control guide.
Here are a few details:
- Launches with 70 levels
- There are 7 exclusive “Chrome Dimension” levels (walkthroughs coming soon) that are unlocked by finding Chrome Logos in Poached Eggs (links to our guide that will show you how to find all these logos).
- At this point we don’t think there are any Golden Eggs, as there is no Golden Egg menu item.
- Supposedly there are something called “Chrome Bombs”, though we’re not sure what these are yet
- Per Rovio, it looks like the Mighty Eagle will be available as an in-app purchase through the Chrome Web store, though it’s not available yet. That’ll make Angry Birds Chrome the first platform other than iOS to have access to the Mighty Eagle’s destructive powers.
- The web version of Angry Birds was built in WebGL and has Canvas support, so there may be additional browser support down the road.
- To help optimize the performance on your machine you can select SD or an HD version in game.
Below are a couple screenshots we grabbed. Don’t forget, if you need helping finding the logos to unlock the Chrome Dimension levels check out our guide.
