Our strategy for Birdday Party (Birthday Party) level 18-11 is to launch Big Brother into the bottom-left stone block in the top-right structure. The direct hit should cause a lot of damage, but when Big Brother falls, he should also take out all pigs in the bottom-right of the level after bouncing off the rubber. To finish the level, lob the Black bird so it lands between the left-most structure and the encased TNT. The score in the video below is 132,900.
Version 2022:
130050 -> 2 stars
131820 -> 3 stars
min 131000
Thanks, made the change.
This is one of those levels, for me anyway, where it ends before all the damage is done.
same for me!!
yes, same here. Several times, the front stone and cake would start to fall over the edge, but the level ends just as they start to fall.
the trick, i found, to getting better than the video score….actually lob Bomb so it is touching the tnt encasement. Here’s the kicker. TRIGGER it MANUALLY immediately upon impact with the tnt box. Mucho uber destruction
Cant figure out how to get feather and can’t post comment in forum. When will mighty eagle walkthroughs be posted?
A little patience. We will get a few Total Destruction walkthroughs in the future.
Problem levels seem to be 8, 11, 12, 15
Ok!!! TD on 18-11! Red bird. High arcing shot between floating platform and middle structures, ideally hits left edge of triangles on roof of right structure.
Bomb bird. High arcing shot to destroy everything on floating structure
Orange bird. Horizontal shot through wood blocks on left structure. Should destroy almost everything on left platform.
ME. You want it to end up just left of the TNT, at about the same height…this is why you don’t want to destroy everything with orange bird.
Key goals before ME…Nothing, or next to, left on floating platform. Very little debris on far right. Very little on left side of left platform.
good luck
That’s definitely the way to go. Stuck on 98% but it should only be a matter of time until I get it…
THANKS mvnla2!! That’s the way to do it!
What is ME? Is that like what happened when You made the shot? srry I am confused as usual lol ty for help, this is a tough one for me:(
“ME” = Mighty Eagle
Ok ty…don’t think that is available for andrioid. does that affect high score on leaderboards? Ty for help:)
No, the Mighty Eagle results in 0 points. He was referring to “TD”, or Total Destruction, not a highscore process.
So these strats posted are not for high score, just a way for those with ME to get the TD? Srry for confusion;( ty for help:)
Feather is next to impossible…99 percent so many times but will spit out the 100…Ravio programmers must be laughing their pants off…
Certainly doable, but we will be creating a video for this one.
Try to do like magsy79 . works well or like my way . The description it is right belong on my post . I reply to magsy79. on december 21 at 7:38 p. m. So good luck and please try ; both ways. thank you. I got 100% total destruction
Mvnla2 posted today dec. 13 at 3:45 pm…I have been trying to get the me feather for a few hours and have got 99 per cent many times…The mvnla2 post works…In fact, using his suggestion I got the feather on the second try…THANK YOU…
100% ME: Red bird to stuff on upper platform, bomb bird to far right pile, globe bird into the left stack. ME on top of the TNT.
I change the order ; This way . Red bird to the far right pile , almost totally destruction ; Bomb bird to upper platform . This it is my changes ,but las birdie , like you , to the left stack . but i Tried go very deep inside . And last ; ME to the top of TNT. And voila the feather come in up to my eyes . Happy no more.
Thank you for this. Success at last! Has anyone else noticed that in Birdday, there is a longish pause before the feather is awarded? I like to think of it as the Eagle deciding whether we are worthy! :-)
I believe the game is waiting the the balloons to “stop moving” as they float away in the sky.
18-11, 143100 w/2 Birds.. I’m sure its the same strategy being played..
1st shot – bigred/b targets the floating structure’s lower sq. stone for max collateral, dropping on the “bouncy” and takes out the extreme right structure, etc..
2nd shot – blk/b launched on a high arc to fall in between the pig (cap) and the TNT, BANG!!.. Goodbye level!
Good luck, thx..
I can confirm this approach. Red bird direct shot on the squre shaped stone on the floating platform. Bird dropped down to the pink bouncing area to take out the structure next to it. Debris from floating platform went nicely left and right taking out the pigs and brown cake right handed side of TNT. Second shot nicely placed over the TNT which took out the rest.
THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU 137420 this was the only method that worked on my iphone
Pretty easy level 8-11, and fun to play. 2/Birds 146160. Thanks Marc 987
135680 and only getting 2 stars!
Even doing all of the above I am still not getting 3 stars.
Finally got 3 stars at 138460!
Yay!!
146990 I use three birds here. First same as video. Second as far as possible without hitting the platform (got 97k once at this point). Third expand between the two first structures. I got my best score with only 92k after second shot so 150k should be breakable with this strat.
I think manu’s strategy is the best way to go here. It works best when the first bird doesn’t fall correctly – in my case, the first bird took out almost all of the blocks on the ledge and the structure to the immediate right of the TNT, but it left the bottom right structure mostly intact. Firing the bomb high (over the tall blocks above the TNT) and into that structure gave me 92k, just like manu’s best attempt. The orange bird is then pretty easy, as you really just have to land it anywhere between the house and the TNT. Much like when you make the same shot with the black bird, though, the roof of the first structure sometimes gets stuck bouncing on the cake and fails to fall off the edge, so it isn’t foolproof.
Thanks @eweber i found this much easier ,i came back to improve and i have with your 3 bird strat:)
I got my score by following @eweber ‘s strat. IDK if the other top ten did the same as I. there are two others with high scores that commented below, Shuvro @georgerxtx.
I use your 3 birds strategy.
Your strategy worked well for me! Thanks!
152760/3 with the same two shots (i was playing the 1st to make the top boulder roll off the top platform on the left side (infrequent); for the 2nd i would, in situations as described by @eweber, aim for damaged stuff next to undamaged stuff and send the bird through the former in order to send the latter flying, and in situations as described by @austinrhl use a high lob onto the trampoline to let the bird enter forcefully into the house via its front door; my best score after it was 98k, without damaging the left structure/with 3 pigs still alive). for the 3rd i have been using a different shot though, straight through the small wooden blocks into the house activating it a bit after entry. this is a higher risk shot (it makes the tnt explode only 1 in 5 to 10), but has higher potential i think (it quite frequently cleans out the left structure completely). after some unlucky situations (145.5k with one pig still alive; 147.5k without getting the tnt which was surrounded by at least 6k of stuff) everything (well, most of it) came together. here are two pictures from that run taken after the 2nd and 3rd respectively:
https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/members/vuelva/album/picture/10982/
https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/members/vuelva/album/picture/10983/
based on the latter picture and other situations that occurred during play, i think that 155k+ scores are reachable by this three bird strategy. on previous visits i had been playing the two bird strategy as described by others, but never got above 148k with it (although it is possible as described in other comments; once during play this time i was tempted to go for it again, after getting a 89k score after the 1st, but sticked to the three bird strategy, got excellent 98k destruction after the 2nd but then the 3rd didn’t want to play along…).
from 152.5k up via first 153k to now a whopping 158350/3, by the same strategy. here’s the final destruction screenshot:
https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/members/vuelva/album/picture/10985/
have had six 150k+ scores today so all this is repeatable (up to the usual unpredictability of the force of the orange bird expanding). 160k could be reachable for the persistent flinger, but i call it quits on this one.
i don’t know why but this looks easy on the video and even the comments say it’s easy, yet i can’t get anywhere near enough damage!!.. 128370 highest and that was using 3 birds!!.. following the video and even the other suggestions highest i can get is 120k mark!..
well finally all the planets aligned and then i almost stuffed it up! lol
got 76K off the first bird same as video, got to 131130 off second bird again same as video, but as the score was ticking upto 131K i bumped the screen and sent the orange bird off the side of the screen!,
so i schould have got around the 141K mark without the error, but even with it i managed to just scrape in there! :-)
You are not alone, Yergin.
This level is really deceiving – I basically used the method in the video, but mostly after the 2nd shot, the outcome is:
1) the helmet pig refuses to give in, so I have to fling the orange bird to finish it, resulting in about 110k;
2) all pigs are gone, but the score is 105k (or even less – with the 10k on orange bird)!!
And so I think I won’t touch this any more after my 139k attempt. *shrugs*
I feel the same way,..it looks and sounds easy,but when I shoot the exact same way I can’t get more than 128900:(
God I hate this level. Do everything just like in the video, but those little “off by a pixel” events and bam! or should I say, “no bam…” ‘cos being off just that tiny bit is enough to make things work out entirely differently. >:|
What is the golden thing in the space under the platform, an orange? Thought it was an egg for a while & was crazy trying to figure out how to get it…
I hope it’s an orange.
I think you mean the birthday cake. There are 3 on this level and each is worth 3000 points.
Looks like an orange to me,too.
3 stars impossible:( 131,000 too high, followed video to the”t”only managed 125,000.gm and gn all. And gl see ya all tommorow which is later today lol. 2 am must sleep sometimes;(
Well, its a new day, made it to 130470, still 2 stars:( the range on this level is very extreme I have had as low as 111,000 seemingly with not that much difference in destruction from a score of 125,000. Very frustrating.
138190….yay 3 stars fiinnally following video and helpful posts ty ev1:)
This 18-11 was really hard, have tried for 2 days and finally 3 stars 134000
yeah it’s a tricky one.
it’s one of those levels that looks easier than it really is.
136070. BIG Bro up high and dedtroying that and everything below. Then bomb bird high and destroying everything else. 10000 extra.
That is what’s described in the video(^).
i give up
Try using other methods used in the threads above you if the video isn’t working for you. Works for me every time. Gl
Start with Big Bro and aim for the block described in the walkthrough, but slightly lower. It will hit the block, knocking everything from the top down, but instead of getting the lower right birds, will fall onto the middle area just left of there and clear out that pig.
Send bomber arcing high enough to get the bottom right pig area and clear out the rest of that area. Send the yellow bird through the wood blocks of the left most area and POOF.
The key is Big Bro hitting the right spot on that top block, then making sure yellow gets inside that left most area.
woohoo, got 131020! haha probably closest to minimum!
Got several tries to get three stars on this level.
Thanks for the walkthrough anyway.
Different Strategy: 1) big red bird hits flat stone bar underneath 3 triangles on left. The impact destroys much of the nearby area and knocks the triangles/stones very forcibly towards the right, also destroying most on the right, especially when the impact detonates the TNT. 2) Black bomb bird hits floating structure as described above. I got 132,000+ with this strategy… barely 3 stars but wanted to mention it.
Score : 148600 –
Take the RED Bird. Aim high so that it hits the top platform and lands on the pink bouncing platform. The first hit destroys almost all of the stuff on the top, the bounce destroys everything on the right side. Then the Black bird, leveled at the same height as the left structure, to drop near the TNT bomb. Explode it at the right time for TD. Orange bomb bird not used at all.
Good luck
I find this level a bit hard.
1. Red Bird like the video. Zoom in and line up the bottom of the RB’s yellow beak with the vertical light blue line of the cloud in the background. Ater hitting the hollow stone and falling, RB should bounce to the right and destroy everything. Sometime RB goes to the left then to the right. Most of the stones on the floating structure should fall and some will fall to the left causing damage. Try for scores 65k-85k after the first bird.
2. Black Bird line up the launch with a very slight space between the bird and the base of the sling and the result will be different from the video. Try to get it to land right next to the tnt and activate. It takes out the structures to the right and left of the tnt. All the cakes, balloons and most of the wood were gone. Repeatable and should result in high 130ks and low 140ks.
3. Orange Bird = bonus
Thank you @wrw01 I found I got more destruction when my Bomber landed close to the TNT! Got a nice over avg score with you detailed strat (as always!) erm yep OB add another to wrw01s tab please! ;D
@kimmiecv You know what I like about your post, you probably watched the video, read what was written, played the game and wrote your own alternate strategy on what you observed, analyszed and concluded. You are on your way kimmiecv, stay with it.
Oh no some of that’s wrong @wrw01 I for sure read every comment and watched video yep check, then I played every strat to an inch of my life yep check, buuuut if I had come up with something that worked better in the end for me than yours or any others I for sure would have shared! As it most of the time turns out check, @wrw01 strats win hands down!! ;D
@kimmiecv Oh let me quote “I found I got more destruction when my Bomber landed close to the TNT! ” That is your tip, technique or observation. You do have skills and something to add to help others.
Aww geez @wrw01 your a sweetie! And I sure hope I’m able to help folks kick some piggie butt! That would just make my day :D. Be safe friend and I hope we meet in BP soon to lower that Big tab of yours! LOL
@Kimmiecv i don’t know where your at but im moving ahead, been at this level h forever and a day..i know i can do it I’m just burning out i I’ll come back to this on cleanup remind me,:)
@kathy I haven’t flung 1 bird yet! :( too busy with other stuff today. You move on as you need to, I’ll try to catch up later tonight! Nice score by the way!! :)
Ok @Kimmiecv I’ll see you in a bit:)
I am unable to gain three stars even though my strategy is as in the video. 18-11 and18-15 have several cakes in. I notice that when I destroy them they just fall apart. I don’t get any points at all for them. This results in me having a lower total score, and thus, not three stars.
Is anyone able to help please? As its quite annoying!
Thanks.
Lee
The strategy in the video is a recommendation, not a guarantee. There has been no reports of issues with cake points.
I’ll add I just played these on iPad and I see no issues. 18-11 is very challenging, but 18-15 seems fine.
Got a lucky shot while trying to get above average.
2 birder as per video gave me 150,750
Thanks lucky shots.
If a picture paints a thousand words then here’s how to get a reasonably well top 60 high score:-
http://angrybir.de/148gy8D
http://angrybir.de/148hg5I
http://angrybir.de/1cyksRg
and it’s the same shot, just a different pattern of damage for this
http://angrybir.de/1cykRmU
I think that higher scores are achievable with this it depends how dedicated you are!
Good luck.
okay, i did it like as described in the walk-through.
1st bird: 79,230 points (4) pigs left
2nd bird: 138,500 points (0) pigs left
+10000 for 3rd bird
after that i was able to pull 86,600 (i think… definitely in the 86k+ range) on the first shot, but sadly miss-shot the second bird (android tiny phone, lol)
sometimes i can “skip” terrance off the vertical stone piece…. more of a miss-fire that gets lucky…… anyhow he skips off it and still hits the cinderblock in the left bottom floating structure…. can’t say if it’s a good thing or not tho
good luck
Revisited. Give it a try. Up 2k after 5 mins. Lots more here. @bonneypattycat for your easier levels me thinks. Just start at the left and work through!
@steviep147 It took me a couple hours, but finally got out of the 140s. I am not certain it is easier, so I will add it to the list as a “possible” until I get further confirmation. Thank you for the report!
https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/forums/topic/abo-levels-worth-another-try/
Ye it’s definitely easier. I can’t remember exactly when I got 146/7 k ish but it was probably a while back and it would have taken an age I think, with a complex strat. Now it’s just fire at the first bit, lob to the TNT ( if it’s not already blown up) self detonate at impact and send the third to the top or bottom depending on the second’s result. An improvement of 5k or so without effort, is for me, easier. There are more points in this.
Todays challenge. No way José! Ridiculous to think that the top score can even be reached.
