Hands-On Version of the Touchscreen Hit
The Angry Birds:
Knock on Wood Game brings all the fun of the touchscreen app to a new,
tactile playing field for two to four players. This game follows the
same goals as the online version: launch the Angry Birds toward the
egg-stealing pigs' wooden castles to destroy them and advance to the
next level. With three Angry Birds, four pigs, a variety of "wooden"
pieces, and a bird launcher, you can now bring the same action to your
living room.
Build, Launch, and Destroy to Win
Play
consists of drawing cards from any of four levels, building a structure
on the card, and then knocking it down. To play, you draw a card--the
higher the card the more points possible to earn. Give it to the next
player to build that card's castle. Then, use the bird launcher to shoot
it down with the birds indicated on the Mission card.
Go Crazy with Wild Cards
Our
testers enjoyed the challenge of playing within the game's rules,
including the ways the structures can be built and the birds that can be
used during particular launches. They also had fun with the special
fourth-level mission cards that allow for freestyle building for more
creative play. They enjoyed experimenting with the distances from which
they could shoot the birds toward castles. With so many possibilities
for hands-on play, this game will keep you and your family and friends
occupied for hours!
