Birdday Party (Birthday Party) level 18-9 is quite difficult. Our strategy is to launch the Orange bird into the top-left corner of the first structure, expanding it just before impact. This should cause towers to fall rightward, detonating some TNTs along the way. Use the White birds as necessary to pop any remaining pigs. The score in the video below is 95,450.
Version 2022:
18-9, 103369 (<-) w/2 Birds.. Never have I had a score like this. Its a birthday present!..
1st shot – o/b shot to the top of the 1st structure that collapsed to the right, the cake cut through the TNT cable starting off a beautiful chain reaction with an "almost".. see photo.. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/341/img1379.png/
2nd shot – w/b closed out the level..
Good luck! thx
Dear moderators, I rounded my score to 103370, what's a "shooter" supposed to do ? .. see photo.. http:http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/46/img1380p.png/
If you close out the app and reopen the level, does it correct itself?
Yes and good morning slimfordy from France. All is good, have a good night’s sleep..
Thanks makes me happy, from a leaderboard point of view
Same score glitch when I got over 100K on this level. 104019 at first then 104020.
Marc, you’re definitely one of the best shooters here. One thing I always notice about you is that you share your strats. Doesn’t seem to matter to you that you might lose a top score. I’m so glad you’re here, and if it’s your birthday (or Birdday), I hope you have a great one!
Oh, and I meant to say this first…way to go on your score! :-)
97070 ty marc, would have been 107070, but…..in my impatience I unnecessarily threw three 3rd bird before realizing stones were still falling. oh well dont think I can repeat it. Gl all and ty for help:)
110k with 2 birds. First high up to fall between first TNT and tower. Detonate when it reach the bottom of middle tower. If done at the right time it pushes the tower intact into the third tower. When TNT of middle tower detonate it can wipe completely the two last towers.
Wait for the balloons in front to be at the lowest. Send w/b low and drop egg so the bird bounce up into the bottom wood of the first tower (that should be stiking out). If done right that can wipe out the first tower completely.
So in your first shot, did the orange bird hit the leftmost cake or the first TNT (or neither)? Because when I tried your method, the middle TNT always blew off before the tower even started to lean towards the right tower, so the right tower was hardly scratched after the shot (which means another screw-up).
And I haven’t even passed it yet. :'(
Never mind, just passed it.
I think the ultimate target is to have the outer slabs in the left side of BOTH the left tower and the right tower to fall when using your method. By this the follow-up shots by the white birds will be much easier. Otherwise the white birds will only be good enough to destroy the slabs (and scratch the inner tower, which ain’t good).
I found something similar gave a high score – when combined with a lot of luck. First bird is high, just skimming down the left side of the middle tower. Inflate it at the halfway point on the tower. If you’re lucky (or try this several 1000 times) some of the debris propelled by the inflation will take out the balloon holding the right TNT box. More luck, and that TNT box will fall into the rightmost tower, exploding about halfway down, knocking over the third tower along with all the piggies. Finish off the leftmost tower with Manu’s bounce method.
119770 Just like manu says. After a good 1,000 tries. Thanks manu!
Haha, this level took me a long time to come by, before getting a above avrperage score. Thanks for the strategy manu!
ty for strategy @eweber after many goes finally got a reasonable score
Got a one-birder using your method @eweber, but not enough debris damage to get a better score than with two birds. Only 97,270.
I got 106,150 with this method. The method in the video wasn’t working. No matter how hard I tried, the cake just bounced off of the TNT without detonating it.
123350/1
similar like @eweber
but i hit the tnt, tnt kick the cake tot the right ballon, tnt fall down.
activate, when OB is near the bottom of towers
here my video:

Goodmorning,
111K with 1 bird. A lucky shot at the bottom of the middle tower, left side, causing a chain reaction that wiped out everything! But then something strange happened ‘the level cleared’ screen showed a score of 111.489 (I have a picture). I tried to enter this on the leaderbord but got the message that the score had to end with a 0. When I went back to the game it showed a score of 111.490, so I entered this one.
That glitch with the score happened to me as well, can´t remember which level that was.
I did what you did,but gave me a score of 92510!
Off subject..but about your avatar.iff you go back to the. Badge and ranking. Page read the post. By Angry Advisor tried to reply to you with instructions but I messed up ssry gl:
i cant seem to get the cake to cut the string:(……
Same here…I feel like I’m doing it exactly like the video, but the cake always hits the TNT (w/o detonating it), not the string.
88910. Probably not the best score, but here’s my strategy: First bird high at center tower, destroying most of that tower and the right tower. Then bomb first tower with white bird, and finishing it off with the second white bird at the remaines of the center tower
How do you do it, can not do how done in video.
Very hard level.
This is my second 3-stars using a Manu strategy. Thank you SO much!
This level is gonna kill me. I cant for the life of me beat it. I’ve tried allot of different approaches but I just cant get past it. I’ve spent way to many hours and days trying! Ugg
when I try the method in the video, it just doesn’t work. The orange bird doesn’t even knock over the first tower, much less create enough momentum to knock out any others.
Anyone have total destruction here ? I’m stuck at 99%. Any vids or strategy would be very helpful. Thanks.
im playin angry birds on my nook & ive gotten all stars & all golden eggs, i have no life, but i dont have the birthday party levels…whats up?
…i think i may be missing 1 golden egg though :( HELP!
The Birdday Party levels are indeed available for NOOK Color; try updating your app.
We have a full list of Golden Eggs in this guide.
I was completely and utterly incapable of topping my old high of 97k with the “2-bird + luck + hundreds of tries” method.
This finally got me over 100k and I did it 4x in under 50 tries – so I claim it’s repeatable.
My strategy is to use all 3 birds – I got a 2-birder this way & only got 102k.
1st bird:
Shoot at the left side of the left tower.
Hit between the middle & top, fire bird right as it hits.
This should completely destroy the left tower and do a lot of damage to the middle tower.
You can break 100k as long as the left-side outer bricks fall – otherwise start over.
If you find the magic ninja sweet spot, sometimes you’ll almost destroy the left AND center towers.
2nd bird:
Middle-height shot to destroy center tower and damage right tower.
Depending on how well you did with the first bird, you’re either cleaning up or trying to topple the tower.
Same as first bird – if the outer blocks on the right tower don’t fall, start over.
3rd bird:
Should just be cleaning up or toppling the right tower.
Thank you soooo much for your detailed strat @miskatonic! I was ready to pull my hair out! Your way was indeed repeatable and after a few tries Bam it just happened! :D
109,410 with 3 birds….Orange bird between 1st and second towers, destroying middle tower and creating a shelf on the first tower. This is bombed with first white bird. Second white bird cleans up the third tower which was damaged by debris from the middle towers’ destruction. Very repeatable!!!
Please don’t comment using caps, it doesn’t make it easier to read. It also means you are shouting. Thanks
Finally broke 100,000. Followed Manu’s strategy above.
Three birds the hard way with no lucky hits:
1. Orange Bird like Manu’s strategy for the middle tower but with some damage to the right and left towers.
2. White bird to take out the remainder of the left tower
3. White bird to take out the remaider of the right tower
Gained 3k in points. Will take it and move on.
Replayed this level with @comex666 video strategy and increased the score, thanks again for your posting.
Back when I got my present score, I thought it was pretty good, heck, it was 18k over 3 star and now the high stands at 119k. That’s going to be one tough score to match or beat in the challenge.
well, i don’t THINK this has been mentioned, but I got distracted and when I picked my phone up (less then 10 minutes for sure) i had 11,000 points and had not fired a shot yet
I know there are levels that “self destruct” so if someone with more experience at the site wants to add it to the “unstable and self-destructing levels” if they think that it merits it, please do….. that being said, I could not take advantage of the opportunity…. lameskies…. on the up side after well over 100 attempts tonight, I finally solved the level and even better, upped my score…. very next try — solved it again….but for only 80,000 or so….. but still 100+ failures and then 2 back to back success must mean SOMETHING good will happen…. good luck yall
97350 –first bird did like was suggested….nothing spectacular happened but the leftmost floating dynamite was swinging back and forth quite um…. a lot….. timed it right with the 2nd bird so that even though his egg didn’t hit much if anything, he broke the string as the dynamite was swinging over the middle structure…. did lots of damage… left the 3rd tower however which i “mopped” up…. i wouldn’t call this a strategy as swinging dynamite happens… well, more then rarely, but not a lot
I have to think there is a one birder in here somewhere. using either Manu’s strategy, or the video strategy, I get a lot of wiggle in the remaining towers that seems to get just to the edge of stability befire stopping. Very maddening!
@josephine above describes a 1-birder for 111k. She doesn’t cite Manu, but it sounds like the same first bird shot.
@BPC, I can’t remember whether it was a high or a low shot (it is almost a year ago), but I think it is safe to say it fits Manu’s description. And as often is the case, two birds means more damage and higher scores! :-)
FINALLY! After hundreds, maybe thousands!, I got a 1-birder! Most of my attempts I detonated anywhere between the bottom and half way up the left side of the middle tower as described by several others above. Had many very close calls, but…. Moved up the tower, as I had tried a few hundred times, and finally all the towers fell. Here is the trajectory:
http://angrybir.de/11yokbY
Final score:
http://angrybir.de/Rsut8I
I cant believe what I have just done, threw the first bird at the middle tower, next thing a big explosion, everything gone & 2nd best score……
Got a 1-birder as well, 117,990. Bottom of middle tower as everyone else.
This is fine with me of course, but i find it strange that i’m so easily getting higher scores for the three (known to be tough) levels of birdday episode 18 i have been revisiting recently (last time i had played them was half a year ago; hadn’t played seriously then but had given them a decent try). Moreover these new scores are close to established top scores. Has the gameplay been altered (e.g. variation in explosive power of orange bird?) in the latest update or is it just chance?
I haven’t noticed any change in orange bird, but you do have me wondering if I should give this level another go :)
So many times I will give up on a level that I tried a thousand times, come back weeks later and in just a few flings, BANG, a high score. I’ve had it happen in “groups”, like what you are experiencing now. Enjoy!
just happened again, this time on 18-14. got two 1-birders in just 5 shots since half a year ago, with the first one already improving on my previous score and the second landing me in the top 10. i enjoy, but maybe it feels strange since one somehow expects/wants a correspondence beween effort and score. may you have a good random generator in your idevice as well.
I find Birdday particularly random, especially with the hat/bird combo generating more points on some levels. Even when they land together, you never know when they will generate extra points. Frankly, I am growing quite weary of the randomness and will probably move on from AB to a game where results don’t leave me scratching my head.
indeed, hats added a large random factor to it, more so than the helmets and stalacties in m&d, but less so than e.g. the wheel in the last s&t level. for fun i’m sometimes wondering what would an ai for playing ab look like; it should be an interesting research project. zero-bird levels: do wait;repeat. 1-bird levels: shoot always exactly the same until randomness of ab itself gives you a good score ((unsupervised) learning where to shoot should still be interesting). i think it should be doable to make an ai outperforming humans. patience/time won’t be the problem in any case.
128760/1. Pretty much the way @vuelva and @bonneypattycat described. Only I got lucky on this one and got it after 15 minutes or so. Nice when that happens, which is pretty rarely!
launch orange bird in between front and middle tower expand him it should destroy the front and middle tower then launch the next bird to complete the level
@Kimmiecv lots of posts here so I’ll start a new thread for us.. I read marc987 first strat posted and improved first shot..i needed 2 bird though not sure i have patience to read through all so if you do stumble upon something dramatically different let me know
*passes Kimmie sunupper * clink * the traditional way to start out re-do’s:)
*clink* let’s hope for a higher score for each of our efforts eh @Kathy!! Hope does spring eternal I’m told and after the last two levels I could use a nice payback on said hope!! I’m trying Manus strat it seems 2 birds will yield more points unless a miracle occurs!! ;D
Okey dokey smoky :) lol let’s get em’
@Kimmiecv manu strat just not working for me,i get in between the TNT and tower but when ob blows the TNT hanging blows with it leaving both the left and right towers still standing? I just don’t get it..?
I just got it for 4k more points @Kathy! Keep trying I can now say it works!! :)
Nice going @Kimmiecv :) I’ll keep at it..can’t figure why it’s not working i Am getting bird between TNT and structure activating at the bottom but it’s Blowing TNT both hanging ones and the right and left tower remain standing..*shakes head ,i just don’t get it*
I hit it @Kimmiecv :) don’t know how but i did.. One bird everything went flying:)
Couple more shots and I’m done see you in 10:)
See I told ya @Kathy!! Very nice score!! :)
Thanks @Kimmiecv :)
That’s it for me..gonna Call it a night
*it’s a night*
Love ya happy flinging no need for candles going straight to sleep:) see ya tomorrow (((((hugs))))
Sleep well @Kathy, see you in 10 tomorrow! :)
Well, that’s not the highscore, but it’s close enough to call it a day ;-)
It’s a one bird shot, high toward the middle tower, touch and inflate at the level of the lowest horizontal stone plank.
The trajectory is like this: http://angrybir.de/17LNWJh
There is even a remaining cake so I guess that around 122k is possible on this level.
Here is the reward: http://angrybir.de/17LOdvU
Hope it helps.
130710 with one bird. Cake into balloon.
There is something happening when you are playing a level long enough. You start noticing small things. Then you try to repeat them.
In this case, if the left hanging TNT is detonated at its closest to the middle cake it will send it directly into the right balloon, the right TNT will then fall and take care of the right tower.
By timing your flinging right you can make it happen 95% of the time.
Don’t wait though, since the swinging movement is stopping after a few swings.
And don’t inflate the bird too soon or the right TNT will explode on top of the tower for minimal damages.
Here is the trajectory and final result for my best score.
That’s not the top score, but I think that @moondoggie top score is a real outlier here ;-)
And this is the highscore screenshot.
Hope it helps.
And visit @bonneypattycat ABO – Levels worth another try.
All these easier levels are listed here. :-)
Got a little lucky by shooting OB in a trajectory that pushes the cake on the leftmost tower and the expanding between the first two towers somewhere in the middle of the tower (heightwise). With a little luck this destroys the two first towers and most of the third, then it’s just to bomb away the remains with Matilda :)
Yay, just raised my highscore 10k by using this strategy but it involves a good portion of luck :)
116230 in 2 birds. Launched balloon bird to come down between the first 2 towers, being careful to not touch either the cake or the hanging TNT. Expand him about half way down. This clears pretty much all of the first 2 towers. In one case, the 2 TNT boxes were still intact. Launched white bird across to the last tower and cleared it.
I gave up trying to get more than just the first tower using the upper left corner technique. Coming down between the 2 towers allowed for consistent scores >100,000. Worked 90% of the time. No luck needed.
123020 using same method as noted above. I admit there was SOME luck involved in the way things fell.
Most definitely another “easier” level. I’m not doing anything special at all, lobbing Orange between the first two towers, missing the dynamite, and detonating about half way down. The can total both towers. If the thin stone veneer on the left side of the right tower is knocked off, fling White and drop the bomb so the carcass strikes about half way up. I’ve gotten 115K+ multiple times with this.
right, much easier now. up from 118k- (when the level was still tough to 1-bird) to 125180/1. strategy is different as well. before (see above), expanding at the bottom of the second tower was the preferred 1-bird strategy, now (see the comment above) i was sending the bird to the middle of the second tower (just missing the tnt or just clipping it) and expanding right next to it (just before or after impact). got the 125k score when flying debris made the right tnt drop and that exploded (by hitting a `veneer’ thin stone falling to the left) just to the left of the right tower. not easily repeatable i think, but had it happen another time; then the right tower refused to collapse but just making it fall with the 2nd gave a 118k score, so i think 130k scores are feasible; also because i had several 120k+ scores with 2 birds before, the best one being 122k (as described by grrtammy; after a 90k+ 1st i sent the carcass of the 2nd onto the lower wood plank of the right tower).
@vuelva @bonneypattycat Definitely an easier level now. Gained 7K and top score for now. Nothing special, I believe I did it like to mock a mockingbird. Unfortunately, I had just upgraded from iphone 5s to 6s and forgot they had moved the buttons. I wasn’t able to snap a pic before it started totaling the score. I posted it anyway to my album; you can at least see some trajectory.
https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/members/moondoggie/album/picture/16871/
Wow, that’s an amazing score @moondoggie! Congratulations!
Geesh, I spent many days on this in the past to finally get a low-scoring 1-birder. Took me 10 minutes just now to get 125k. There were still a few bricks left on the right tower, so 126k+ is possible.
Unusual method. Fire orange bird far, try to land it on top long, vertical stone on far right of middle tower. Doing so gave a HIGH one-bird score. Good luck.
This level is now much easier indeed!
I think I used a different strategies than the ones described by @vuelva and @moondoggie, wich is in my opinion more repeatable.
I also launch the bird high arc in a way as to fall on the (balancing) tnt when it is close to the cake of middle tower and then activate at the bottom of the middle tower. To do so I launch the bird when the tnt is on its way to the right side.
The result is that the cake will fly right and cut the string holding the second tnt. With luck the tnt will fall as to push the right tower and get you a one birder more or less fruitfull. I got after few attemps a score of 130k.
Hope this helps
Yummy level. My cute crazy little Bubbles just makes everything better
