Angry Birds Blues

Angry Birds Blues is a Angry Birds spin-off released April 27, 2016 for iOS, Android, Kindle Fire, Nexus 7, Nexus 10, Montorola Xoom, 3DS and several computers (Windows, OS, OS X and Linux). It's a spin-off that, just like Angry Birds Stella, focuses on (a) certain flock member(s) only, in this case, The Blues. The only other returning birds are Bubbles and Stella; all the rest is new. Just like how Angry Birds Stella is aimed for girls, Blues is aimed for younger gamers of both genders. All characters in the game have their Toons design (though Corporal Pig and King Pig have their old Toons look.)

Gameplay
The game follows the general gameplay of the AB series.

Story
The story starts when King Pig has stolen the eggs yet again, using a robot army and a huge machine with a vacuum on it. Bubbles, Stella and The Blues also get sucked in, much to the Birds' horror. King Pig then flies to another island, Battle Island, to make sure the Birds don't get their Eggs back. The Blues, though, escape their cell and meet up with some new birds, just as young as they are. The group must now escape while also saving Stella, Bubbles and the Eggs.

The Blues
The Blues are the main characters of the game. Their ability has been changed dramatically. They are, for example, already split in three on the slingshot. When fired, their new power is swinging their yo-yos. The Blues are stronger in this game than they used to be; they can now cut through wood, just like in Angry Birds Star Wars II. The Blues appear in almost every level in the game (approximately 94% of the levels feature the Blues).

Bubbles
Bubbles returns in this game, also having his ability changed. This time around, Bubbles throws two buckets of candy; one of which explodes, while the other one inflates, just like Bubbles did in previous games.

Bubbles can cut through glass, snow and ice, but that's really it.



Stella
Stella makes her comeback too. She is the only returning bird in the entire game to not have her ability changed. Stella is the least common of the three (or five ?) returning birds, and the only girl bird in the whole game.

Kyle
Kyle is a purple bird, looking similar to Bubbles in appearance, but he has white feathers on his tail, and is larger. Kyle's special move involves him having lightning strike thrice; left, right and in the center. Kyle is weak against wood and glass.

Thomas
Thomas is a oval shaped green bird, with large eyes and a beak like the Blues. Thomas' power consists of him falling to the ground; hereby, Thomas transpierces everything (well yeah, almost everything), including stone. The only things Thomas cannot destroy are rubber and floor/wall/ceiling tiles.

James
James resembles the Blues, though crimson in colour and more shaped like a sideways oval. James' special move is similar to Mirror Kirby's Reflect Force ability in the Kirby series; James sends out a wave of energy spheres; these not only destroy pigs, they blow fortifications away and projectiles and incoming obstacles are reflected by it and fly the opposite way.

Mighty Snake
One of the two Mighty creatures in the game. The Mighty Snake behaves similar to the Mighty Dragon and is unlocked after purchasing him for 99 cents. He can be used once a day.

Mighty Snail
The second Mighty creature in the game. And we can say one thing anout it: It's a snail. He's unlocked by beating a boss level with the Mighty Snake. When summoned, he'll go inside his cochlear and roll to the right of the screen, demolishing all of that green swine.
