Devs, this is urgent!

So I’ve encountered a bit of an issue. As of now level 235 is virtually impossible, not what I expected a “Hard” level to be honestly. At the final room, if the balloon birds float to the right side of the stage, they cannot be counted as collected because there isn’t enough space to register this. Sure, I could try my hardest to make them go left, (Which I have) but that’s not my problem. So it’d be greatly appreciated if you guys could fix this. There also a slight visual issue where when switching rooms, the Bird that’s after the one in play will switch when entering your slingshot, throwing off strategy. I’d also appreciate either a better indication of the Cloud Mask’s location or the clouds just to be a visual disturbance rather than a condition, and to give the fireflies some more brain power so they can move left, right, up or down more so I don’t have to keep wasting moves because they won’t go upwards with nothing in their way. Thanks for reading!

Garbage with way too many glitches

So I played the proto game for a year before they released the fully “completed” version. At least the beta version was playable. The full release is not. You cannot collect your festival rewards (collect button doesn’t work... you have to fully close and reopen the game to get past the frozen collect reward button to play on). Balloons get stuck in the terrain and no amount of birds will dislodge them so you lose the level and all of your progress. The fireflies are confused by terrain and refuse to find each other despite only a hill or floating ground (no blocks) separating them so, AGAIN, you lose the level and your progress. And then there was the glitch where there was only ONE firefly who just sat there because there was no one there to make a love connection with... ALL of the blocks had already been broken so it’s not like the second fly was hiding under a pile of rubble. Yet again this leads to the loss of the level and all progress. There are other obnoxious glitches but I’m not going to waste further time listing all of them. After a year playing the beta version I’m now deleting the game altogether since the full release is not playable. I’m damned tired of rich companies churning out garbage. Why the heck don’t they just release the original angry birds on the App Store? So stupid that we’re forced to choose from these “advanced” versions of the game that have been poorly vetted prior to release.

Fun becomes frustrating very quickly

I’m going to refrain from using any kind of retrospective context about original AB games and just judge this one on its own, for what it is. This game is a lot of things. “Balanced” is not one of them. It’s addictive and satisfying to knock down towers, but some of the later game mechanics just become frustratingly difficult to manage. I get that games are supposed to become more challenging as you get through them, but this one kicks it up in so many notches in so short a curve that it becomes really not fun to play. When they introduce new block types that are extremely unpredictable and start combining all different kinds of puzzles into one screen, while simultaneously nerfing your ammo, and then take into account the fact that the bird types are randomized on each level, you get something thats designed to push you into spending your own money on extra chances to finish a level. I hate games that are designed this way, especially when it starts out so unassuming and fun. There’s no ads interrupting your gameplay, which makes me want to play it more, but after about 150 levels it just gets way too frustrating to sink my time into. Do yourself a favor. Play for a little bit, then uninstall it and go read a book. It’s a good short term experience, but a bad hobby.

Disappointed Gamer

The game started out being enjoyable and, at times, almost too easy. But as I progressed and got more into the game, I noticed things happening in an unusual way, such as the pieces not behaving in the same way each level. As I got further along, the birds started behaving erratically, for example, when I was down to two balloons to save, the Red bird would bounce around the one I aimed it at and destroy boards etc. around the area of the first balloon after the balloon was freed instead of going for the other balloon when earlier it would go for the second piece after the first piece was freed. Or the Bomb bird was used to destroy a small building housing a gaged balloon and the pieces would fly around instead of being destroyed and the caged balloon would land in a place that would require another bird just to destroy one tiny board. Once I spent real money to buy coins the games got harder and the coins I bought went fast. Instead of needing extra birds every third or fourth game, I was needing to buy extra birds almost every game. I’m at level 220 and have decided I no longer need the stress of watching pieces and birds behave differently than when I started the game. I’m deleting it off both my iPhone and iPad.

Angry Birds - Micro Transaction Edition

The game itself is enjoyable. The birds are fun and the levels (at the beginning are good). After around level 100 it begins to become more and more obvious that the micro transactions are indeed very necessary to continue at any manageable pace. There are certain levels (you will have no problem spotting them) where it is necessary to have power ups to complete it. They will either use chains and bubble fields to sap your birds or simply not give you enough to make it through in the first place. When you run into these levels you can either buy your way past them or pray for one of those miracle birds to do major damage. I do like the game, but just as most games today it’s all about nickle and dimeing you to death. I would rather buy a game than deal with this micro transaction non-sense. But I’m afraid that will never change. Developers make way more money selling pay to win stuff than selling copies of the game. So, I’ll put this one on the shelf with the rest of the micro transaction abominations and look for something new.

Not worth money vs rewards

I am a big Angry Bird fan, but this game is literally IMPOSSIBLE TO WIN without spending real money. The packages for coins aren’t worth the amount of coins received. There are virtually no rewards within the game to help you pass levels. If you are a paycheck to paycheck person like me do not download this game! Because it is extremely frustrating and only fun if you have plenty of money to spend. Almost every single level is impossible to pass after level like 200. I’m surprised bc my other angry birds games have a bunch of in app rewards and hard level offers for .99 or $2.99. Why does cost 950 coins to get 3 more birds to pass a level? Wouldn’t 500 be reasonable with how many coins are in purchases less than $20? And if you NEVER win or earn rewards just for playing the game what’s the point? I play AB 2 and Blast every single day, these two games are fun bc of the rewards vs. unfair gaming expectations. I allow myself to spend real money every now and then in games for fun but refuse to pay anymore to AngryBirds Journey!

Angry Birds Journey is no longer fun

Sadly I’ve been playing this particular version for over 2 years and it’s exactly the same puzzles as when I started. It’s monotonous and now what with the Haunted Gaia Challenge it’s next to impossible to advance levels. I spent all my power ups and multiple unlimited lives to advance past just one level and it sucked the whole time. Plus - I have yet to experience few if any of the fun looking levels advertised on the app store promo page. This game no longer has an end, there is no magic Gaia egg to be discovered. Instead it’s just one monotonous game after another with holiday graphics thus there is no longer any end goal to strive for. Anyone else notice there is no longer Ny method available to contact support inside this game? My 1st place eagle Rally Finished icon for having won the most recent Rally has been present on my home screen and inoperable (unable to redeem my winnings) for the past several weeks & there’s no longer a way to get it fixed (nor anything else). Perhaps this game is no longer being supported?

Gets progressively worse over time

The developers are hard at work making their game more infuriating to play and adding annoying “features”, with each update introducing more problems. They ignored all the bugs I sent to them, while removing beneficial things like daily potions for top players. Recently they added a permanent “extra bird” purchase popup every single time you want to start a game, and then grayed it out making it an extra step to play a game. Convenient bugs are everywhere, stopping you from completing hard levels and destroying streaks, such as abilities not activating, and frogs that become stuck on the screen, preventing anything from killing them. Watching ads also prevents you from playing, as they are sometimes zoomed in and the X button is unreachable, so even if you spent powerups and coins you can only quit the game. After sending screenshots to support they give you an hour of unlimited life if you’re lucky, and claim they will fix it. However after three months no effort to fix the bugs were made at all.

Angry Birds Blast marks another departure from the physics-based slingshot gameplay that made the original Angry Birds such a huge...
