Macworld rated 4.5 out of 5 mice (read review)
In making the leap to the iPad, Angry Birds HD kept the core gameplay of the popular iPhone version—defeat egg-stealing green pigs by bombarding their fortifications with the none-too-pleased ornithoids of the game’s title—while making the most of the tablet’s spacious screen. On the iPad, you can really appreciate the clever animations and intricate level design. With new updates including a new boomerang bird and new levels, Angry Birds continues to improve—and impress.—CHRIS HOLT
