While it has been a little quiet in the world of Angry Birds, Rovio have released a nice puzzle to celebrate the conclusion of the Chinese New Year festivities. This caps off a multitude of releases for the Year of the Dragon update, which included:
- Two teaser videos: One from the “Happy New Year” video, plus an official trailer;
- Both a full animated short and a “Making Of” video;
- Another seasonal comic strip; and
- Specially designed Year of the Dragon backgrounds for mobile, tablet, and computers.
So if you haven’t had enough Year of the Dragon yet, be sure to check out lantern.angrybirds.com and try out their new puzzle. It will test your knowledge of the latest update with three mind-boggling, image-based questions.
If you need help with the riddle, you can check out our solution image. But beware: Once you see the solution, it cannot be unseen. Open at your own risk.
Once you solve the riddle, enjoy Rovio’s fantastic animation, which we have also included below. Happy Chinese New Year to everyone!
The questions were so easy
What questions? I solved riddle, but didn’t see (or hear) questions???
The questions are sort of implicit. For example, the first box was really asking the question “Which image corresponds to Year of the Dragon level 1-5?”
Too easy
@Mighty Eagle: Please check your email for a message from me, and please respond as soon as possible.
Easy, but funny!
Cool! Funny too!
Hope they do it for all updates. It revives some good memories!
Yeah, really tempts us to check the YoTD levels and videos again. :)
“But beware: Once you see the solution, it cannot be unseen.” XD. Nice one, Slim. :)
Hope they do it for all updates too. And aggre with Kart that the sentence is nice. :-D
Just some background knowledge regarding this festival:
“During the Lantern Festival, celebrated on the fifteenth day of the first month in the lunisolar year, children go out at night to temples carrying paper lanterns and solve riddles on the lanterns.”
That’s right!!But not only for this, some lovebirds also throw their mandarine to river for the long love. :)
Or simply to say, Lantern Festival also known as Chinese Valentine Day.Heh heh!! :)
ty, good to know!
I like it.
Very clever, like it :) Nice one Rovio :)
Was nice.
Hope they will do something more the next time.
OK, this may sound stupid, but how in the world do you solve these puzzles? I understand what the answers are; how do you enter them? I know this is probably the easiest thing to do, but I am stumped! I was up very late due to the Super Bowl and haven’t had much sleep, so that’s my excuse for the confusion.
use the arrows on the right hand side, and they move the pictures up and down
Bless you! It never occurred to me that those were arrows. I thought they were just decorative; I need more coffee :). Thank you very much.
Haha, I had the same problem.. thought I was stupid or something..
Now I feel better. I thought I was the only one :).
I had the same problem with the puzzles. Just never occurred to me to move the arrows.
Still not sure of the connection with the fish in the Year of the Dragon. Should not there have been dragon themes or results?
[ Two teaser videos: One from the “Happy New Year” video, plus an official trailer); ]
why is this sign ‘)’ after the word trailer? nothing evident but a small mistake i think!
My mistake, sorry. I originally had it as “two teaser videos (one from…)” but eventually changed to colon instead of parentheses.
Potential news? http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Lifestyle/News/kiss-video-game-0203-2012/
nice i like it (especially with the dragon)
the questions are easy the video was fantastic good job rovio
just a bit unrelated, … i was searching the internet, and found this, has anybody seen this before or know where this is from??? http://flic.kr/ps/2afBjQ
Check this out.
oh i remember that… a while ago ABN posted something about that or something. maybe a rio update?
This is one of the scenes posted on the page iamMighty linked to.
Doesn’t appear that there has been any progress in figuring out what it’s from or for.
Maybe it relates to this post https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/local-edition-of-angry-birds-in-the-works/
As all the images have the same level with a different background.
who knows, i suppose only time will tell for sure.
I was wondering… When ABFB comes out will it have an app (So we can play it on our Ipods/Iphones…) like how words with friends or any other app connected to FB apps.
Don’t think so. The app seems to differ greatly.
the dragon is sweet! i would know. how can I make a three star firework in the corner of my pic
If you mean how most of us have a little pic at the corner of our avatars then you can’t because those are achivments. There is a detailed article if you click on anybody’s avatar.
thanks codebreaker! i was totally in the dark
Very good,but easy to solve.Anyway,thanks Rovio.
Angry Birds Main Theme by The London Philharmonic Orchestra.
loved it!
Nice video
The new Angry Birds store in Helsinki at the Vantaa Airport opens now!
They sure look good.
random:)
Tragic Mistake: At the start, you see 3 blue birds at the right screen but when the mighty dragon appeared, only 2 blue birds were there!
Birds can move, yaknow.
