I’m only at level 6 right now, but here are my thoughts to date.
I find the core gameplay simple and I got used to it quickly (it feels kind of like Angry Birds Action to me). I like how the original characters’ abilities are now specific to the colors of the birds. It only took a little bit for me to get used to the egg-hatching and the bird XP-level mechanics.
I will admit, it did throw me off at first that none of the classic AB characters were in the game; the only recognizable birds are Shirley (the grandma bird from the movie) and Mighty Eagle. I do think Mia looks kind of like Silver, but other than that… none of the usual birds are in the game, at all? Somehow, to me, that makes it feel a little less like an Angry Birds game.
Another thing that confuses me somewhat is that I keep mistakenly thinking that the numbers above the pigs (showing how many moves are left before their special ability is activated) is linked to an XP level of some kind.
I’m still not used to the different buildings in the village (or whatever it’s called) and what they do, mainly because their designs are kind of complicated and their names aren’t always visible. Maybe I’ll get used to it later on, but I’m not completely sure right now.
Overall, this game is interesting so far. Feels different from the other Angry Birds games, but it’s still pretty fun.
