About Angry Birds Star Wars

What is Angry Birds Star Wars?

The Angry Birds are in for a great adventure in Angry Birds Star Wars. In this Star Wars themed video gaming app, the rebel angry birds face off against a galactic menace: the Empire’s evil Pigtroopers.

The Angry Birds Star Wars app is available for free download in the App Store and the Google Play Store. It is rated for users of all ages. This app features both in-app purchases and advertisements.

Once downloaded, user are taken to a simple main menu that features a settings menu, a play button, the shop button, as well as a large button to take you to other Angry Birds games that users may be interested in. The play button takes you to yet another menu that offers a selection of games to play featuring different space landscapes and storylines. Users must play and continue to win levels to unlock additional levels.

With the same premise as the other games in this series, users must launch birds from a slingshot against the towers protecting pigs. If users are unsuccessful they will need to replay that level until they win to move on to the next. Any unused birds left once a player destroys all the pigs will be extra points for that player.

Users will have to sit through short video advertisements until a fast forward button appears which then takes them to a still advertisement. Many user complaints focus on the amount of ads they need to watch while playing this game. In-app purchase will earn users special boosters as well as options to unlock levels without spending lots of time working through the entire game. In-app purchases range in price from $0.99 to $19.99.

Is Angry Birds Star Wars safe for my kids?

The Angry Birds Star Wars gaming app is safe for kids, though the app's terms of service require that users be 13 years of age and older to use this app with parental supervision. There is currently no age verification in place.

Parents will want to know that the ads featured in this app are for other products and games created by the Rovio company to produces Angry Birds.

Parents should also pay attention to any in-app purchases that their kids may make and be sure to set clear spending expectation and limits before they set them loose on this gaming app.

Tech addiction is another worry parents may want to consider. Like the other games in this Angry Birds franchise, this game can easily become very addicting and parents may wish to set limits on how much time they allow their children to play gaming apps.
