Angry Birds – мировой феномен. Птиц придумали благодаря свиному гриппу и запускали на орбиту Земли

Ностальгия по великим и очень злым птицам.

Более 10 лет назад на свет появилась Angry Birds – один из первых мегахитов эпохи сенсорных смартфонов. Он запустил гигантскую международную франшизу, включающую даже полнометражные экранизации и парки развлечений.

Вспоминаем, как игра про стрельбу злыми птицами из рогаток стала достоянием Финляндии.

Angry Birds началась с детского рисунка разработчика

У финской студии Rovio, основанной за 6 лет до появления «Птиц», в начале нулевых были финансовые трудности. Компания специализировалась на java-играх и работала скорее в убыток. Когда руководство хотело ворваться на стремительно растущий рынок App Store, денег хватало на создание только одной игры.

Идею предложил геймдизайнер Яакко Иисало. Скучая дома и проводя время за видеоиграми, он придумал визуальный концепт. Открыв Photoshop, Иисало нарисовал толстеньких мультяшных птиц без конечностей и с хмурыми бровями, которые летят в некие блоки. Тогда еще было непонятно, в чем заключается геймплей игры, но руководству понравился визуальный стиль и персонажи – началось производство.

Также в прототипах не было рогатки, поэтому птиц буквально приходилось швырять пальцами. Большинство тестеров идею не поняли, остальным она просто не понравилась. Затем студия экспериментировала с качелями и даже катапультой – игру собирались назвать Catapult. В итоге выбрали самый очевидный вариант с рогаткой, поскольку она лучше всего подсказывала игроку, что от него требуется.

Хоть изначально у Angry Birds не было сюжета как такового, игре требовался антагонист – ими стали зеленые свиньи. Как ни странно, их Иисало придумал спонтанно: нарисовал первое, что пришло в голову, после чего раскрасил зеленым цветом. Он дополнял красный цвет, который символизирует лидера птиц Рэда.

Важный нюанс: пройти уровни легко, но вот заработать максимальные три звезды за выполнение всех условий смогут только опытные игроки. Таким образом Rovio сделала гибкую сложность, позволив игрокам как бы самим выставлять себе требования. Возможность выполнить все дополнительные испытания, понятное дело, соблазняла – даже если для этого уровень придется перезапустить несколько раз.

Миссия с вертолетиком в GTA: Vice City – самое ненавистное и мемное задание в истории видеоигр

Главное, что у Angry Birds были все качества уверенного флагманского проекта: не требующая объяснений механика, популярный в то время упор на взаимодействия с физикой и яркая визуальная составляющая. К тому же игра отлично подходила для сенсорного управления одним пальцем, а из Рэда вышла идеальная иконка приложения.

«Птицы» взлетели не сразу, из-за них у домохозяек горела еда в духовке

В первые месяцы игра стала довольно популярной в Финляндии и некоторых странах Европы, ежедневно разработчики получали 30-40 тысяч загрузок (а значит, проданных копий) – результат умеренно положительный, но не взрывной. В студии есть байка (а может, и реальная история), что за несколько месяцев медленного старта команда почти потеряла веру в проект. Примерно в то же время мама одного из разработчиков случайно сожгла индейку в духовке, потому что слишком увлеклась прохождением Angry Birds – тогда авторы поняли, что не все потеряно.

15 октября 2010 года игра вышла на Android, за первые дни получила несколько миллионов скачиваний – оглушительный успех. Спустя еще год прибыль от Angry Birds достигла 50 миллионов евро.

Rovio постоянно развивала проект. Изначально в игре было всего 63 уровня, но после многочисленных обновлений с новыми эпизодами число миссий выросло до 598. Параллельно игра выходила на все новых платформах, начиная от всех актуальных мобильных устройств и заканчивая PC и домашними игровыми консолями вроде Xbox 360 и Wii.

В Angry Birds играли даже космонавты NASA на орбите Земли

В наполеоновских бизнес-планах на франшизу финны ориентировались на Nintendo, намереваясь сделать будущий проект не просто хитом, а частью геймерской культурой.

Сейчас по франшизе вышло уже 25 игр, и далеко не все из них физические головоломки.

Например, были RPG: более классическая Angry Birds Epic и гибрид ролевой игры и головоломки «три-в-ряд» Angry Birds Fight!.

Кроме того, был баббл-шутер Angry Birds POP:

Погорский вернулся на мид. Сделал ультракилл и слил тонну каток

И даже полноценный 3D-картинг Angry Birds Go!

Были и более классические спин-оффы: Angry Birds Rio, Angry Birds Star Wars (и сиквел) и Angry Birds Space. Для последней игры Rovio заключила сотрудничество с NASA: запуск игры отмечали космонавты на орбите Земли – это единственный подобный случай.

Самое оригинальное ответвление серии – Bad Piggies. В этой игре героями становятся те самые зеленые свинки, а вместо разрушения крепостей нужно строить транспортные средства из различных запчастей, чтобы свиньи могли достигнуть пункта назначения.

Rovio так увлеклась кроссоверами, ответвлениями и обновлением классической игры, что полноценное продолжение, Angry Birds 2, вышло только 30 июля 2015 года. За 6 лет бренд не стух: в первые дни игру скачали 30 миллионов раз.

Многие признавались в зависимости к игре: например, бывший премьер-министр Великобритании Дэвид Кэмерон, бывший министр обороны США Дик Чейни, игрок NBA Кевин Дюрант, актер Джон Хэмм, Джастин Бибер и не только.

Профессор психологии Марк Гриффитс объяснил, почему Angry Birds так затягивает:

«Поражения по факту воспринимаются почти-победами и вызывают когнитивную фрустрацию. Единственный способ избавиться от этого неприятного чувства – сыграть заново».

Иными словами, Angry Birds работает как азартные игры, хотя игроку и не нужно делать ставок.

Финны производят мерч так же агрессивно как Disney

В играх Rovio подсматривала стратегию Nintendo, а глобально училась у магнатов вроде Disney и Coca-Cola. То есть изначально хотела сделать но только успешный продукт (игру), но и раскрутить его до вездесущей франшизы. С мерчем, мультфильмами и всем-всем-всем. Компания верила, что Рэд станет таким же популярным и прибыльным персонажем, как Микки Маус.

Параллельно с релизом игр компания выпускала мультсериалы про тех же птиц. Там историю о «хороших птицах и злых свиньях» развили до более-менее внятного сюжета. У птиц появились личности (желтый, Чак, боится молний, а Матильда обо всех заботится), а еще выяснилось, что свиньи – не такие уж злодеи. Просто они живут на одном маленьком острове с птицами и хотят кушать, а ничего питательнее яиц найти не могут.

В 2012 году финский парк развлечений Sarkanniemi открыл большую зону Angry Birds Land.

В Китае официального парка по игре не было, зато там появился аттракцион: посетителям нужно было выстреливать игрушечными птицами из гигантских рогаток, целясь в большие надувные шары.

В Малайзии открылся целый развлекательный комплекс Angry Birds Activity Park, где в том числе можно покататься на картах.

Канадский технический музей TELUS World of Science в 2016 году добавил целую серию экспонатов, демонстрирующих творческие и научные корни игры. Посетители могли выстрелить из гигантской рогатки в собственноручно построенный форт из пенопластовых блоков, собрать радиоуправляемую машинку для гонки и даже «стать птицей», врезавшись в пенопластовую конструкцию на тарзанке. Были и регулярные доклады о связи Angry Birds с базовой физикой.

В 2014 году Rovio заключила контракт с крупным издательством IDW Publishing, чтобы выпустить комикс про злых птиц. Даже у этой серии появился собственный комикс-спин-офф Super Angry Birds, в котором птицы превратились в супергероев с антропоморфными накачанными телами.

Еще в начале 10-х финская компания по производству напитков Olvi выпустила серию газировок с персонажами игры. Всего было 6 вкусов, по каждому на птицу: Tropic, Paradise, Lagoon, Comet, Sunrise, Amazon. Все, кроме последних двух, продавались и в России. Как и в случае с переживающей кризис Rovio, газировки «Птиц» дали огромный буст стагнирующему концерну.

В 2016 году Angry Birds добрались до кинотеатров. Полнометражная экранизация стоила 75 миллионов долларов, собрала в мире 350 миллионов и получила сиквел. Вместе с тем «Птицы» получили очередное достижение – по ним вышла серия конструкторов LEGO.

Теперь Angry Birds точно можно считать вездесущей. В конце-концов, серию упоминают как часть современной культуры, а ее герои даже появились в одном из эпизодов «Симпсонов».

Сейчас Angry Birds уже не такой гиперхит как 10 лет назад, но игры все еще обновляются и держатся в топ-200 App Store. Суммарно «Злых птиц» скачали 4 миллиарда раз – с такими достижениями плавно уходить на отдых все-таки не стыдно.

Кроме невероятных цифр Rovio, в которой еще в 2010 году работало всего 28 человек, получила мало с чем сравнимое признание. Разработчиков из студии финны считают чуть ли не знаменитостями, в Финляндии Angry Birds гордятся так же, как украинцы серией S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Компания до сих пор развивается за счет тех же «Птиц»: в первом квартале 2020-го прибыль Rovio выросла до 13 миллионов евро (на 19.6%), в штате уже более 400 сотрудников.

Даже Сигеру Миямото, автор The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario Bros., Donkey Kong и прочих вечных хитов признал, что хотел бы быть тем, кто придумал Angry Birds. Похоже, Злые птицы стали для мобилок такой же иконой как водопроводчик Марио для консолей.

Содержание

Игровой процесс

Из роликов в игре можно узнать, что зеленые свиньи крадут яйца у птиц с целью приготовления яичницы. Разгневанные птицы решают им отомстить и вернуть яйца обратно. В процессе игры свиньи скрываются в строениях, состоящих из блоков различных материалов — дерева, льда, бетона, снега, облаков, песка. Запуская птиц из рогатки, нужно уничтожить всех свиней на уровне. Уровень считается пройденным, если были уничтожены все свиньи. Они уничтожаются как прямым попаданием, так и при помощи блоков разрушаемых строений и падения с большой высоты. Кроме того, в игре есть бонусные уровни — золотые яйца, своего рода пасхалки. Всего их в игре 27. За каждое найденное яйцо открывается по одному бонусному уровню.

Виды птиц

Реклама-фильм с их участием называется «Serdar, Jaakko, Peter — Angry Birds Developers» (Сердар, Жакко, Петер — разработчики Angry Birds)

Играть этими птицами нельзя, и они встречаются только в этой рекламе. Это единственные птицы, которые разговаривают (не считая героев комиксов).

Виды врагов

Жирным курсивом выделены боссы

Противник	Особенности
Обычная свинья	Обычные свиньи отличаются размером. Есть во всех уровнях. Как правило, лопаются после первого попадания.
Обычная свинья: девочка	Встречается на бонусном Angry Birds Seasons: Hogs and Kisses который появляется после прохождения всех уровней на 3 звезды и в отделе информации об игре.
Шлемак	Свиньи в шлемах. Отличаются повышенной прочностью — сразу лопаются только при прямом попадании птицей или большом количестве ударов о предметы. Встречаются в уровнях в количестве от одного до нескольких.
Усатый барон	Главный приспешник короля. В уровнях встречается в единственном числе — до 3 локации эпизода Ham ‘Em High. Часто ошибочно принимается за дедушку короля.
Король свиней	Самая большая свинья и самая прочная, является «боссом», так как присутствует в последнем уровне каждого эпизода. В золотом яйце № 13 есть четыре таких свиньи. В эпизоде Mighty Hoax появляется дважды.
Свинья-зомби	Свиньи в уровнях турнира Angry Birds Friends (Halloween). После убийства свиньи возникает зомби которую тоже следует уничтожить.
Свинья-чучело	Замотанная свинья. Догадаться, что это свинья можно только по торчащему пятачку. Это единственная НЕ зелёная свинья. Встречается только в Angry Birds Seasons.
Свинья-почтальон	Не встречается ни в одном уровне. Только в меню паузы, и он показывает вам новые игры и обновления.
Обезьяна	Встречается только в Angry Birds Rio c уровня 3-1 Jungle Escape. Бывает разных размеров.
Найджел	Злой какаду, работающий на браконьеров. Встречается только в Angry Birds Rio на уровне 4-15 Jungle Escape. Позже возвращается на уровне 12-15 Smugglers’ Plane (последний уровень). В финальном ролике Angry Birds Rio он лишается перьев и пропадает в Рио.
Мауро	Король мартышек. Присутствует в Angry Birds Rio на уровне 8-15 Carnival Upheaval, то есть его можно считать боссом.
Толстый свин	Таинственный свин, который был заморожен в космосе, поэтому считается ядром планеты Cold Cuts. Также его можно найти на уровне 2-30 и на планете Utopia (на ней он является боссом).

Виды блоков

Блок	Особенности
Дерево	Ломается после первого попадания жёлтой птицей. В эпизоде Angry Birds Seasons «Year of the Dragon» присутствуют также и красные блоки, с прочностью деревянных.
Стекло	Разбивается после первого попадания синей птицей.
Камень	Ломается после первого попадания чёрной птицей.
Золотые блоки	Появляются только в эпизоде Angry Birds Seasons «Year of the Dragon». Легко пробиваются любыми птицами.
Снег/Облако/Песок	Легко разбиваются любыми птицами. Эти блоки могут парить в воздухе, то есть если на таких блоках стоит конструкция свиней, она не падает.
Железо	Присутствуют в Angry Birds Rio и Angry Birds Space. Разбивается любыми птицами.
Призрачные блоки	Появляются только в эпизоде Angry Birds Seasons «Haunted hogs». Входят в состав конструкций так же, как и обычные блоки, способны нести нагрузку и даже разрушаться при падении, но птицы проходят сквозь эти блоки.

В феврале 2012 года компания Rovio объявила о выпуске Angry Birds Space — новой игры в серии специальных игр Angry Birds. Тематика игры связана с космосом; в частности, в конструкциях присутствуют планеты, гравитационное притяжение каждой по-своему влияет на траекторию птиц после запуска. До запуска игры Rovio отправляло различные видео-анонсы новой версии Angry Birds Space.

Все птицы в игре изменились в облике и в способностях, появилась новая Ледяная Птица, но нет Белой и Зелёной птиц [6] Также в игре присутствует Могучий Космический Орел, отличия которого от обычного Могучего Орла в облике, в том, что Могучий Космический Орёл покупается не единожды, а как в игре Angry Birds Facebook, например, 280 Космо-Орлов стоят 8 долларов и в том, что действие Космического Орла является Взрывом Бомбы, только более усиленной.

В игре вышло 7 эпизодов: «Pig Bang», «Cold Cuts», «Fry Me To The Moon», «Utopia», «Red Planet» «Danger Zone», «Eggsteroids». Золотые Яйца в игре представлены в эпизоде «Eggsteroids», они сделаны под стиль ретро игр 80х. А за прохождение определенной локации на три звезды в каждом уровне,открывается бонусный уровень с участием белых яиц с антенной. В сюжетных эпизодах (Danger Zone не является сюжетным эпизодом, а лишь дополнением) есть боссы. Недавно вышло обновление, которое включает в себя 20 уровней Red Planet. Чуть раньше вышло обновление Utopia включающее 30 уровней. Ещё раньше вышло обновление, которое включает в себя Fry Me To The Moon. Уровней всего лишь 10, на 10-ом уровне есть пародия на Space Needle, поскольку за день до выхода AB Space на эту башню прикрепили рогатку с красной птицей. Рогатка была натянута, и если её отпустить, то Красная Птица может полететь, по словам её разработчиков, «в космос».

* Crossover work. † Game has been discontinued and is no longer available.

Angry Birds is a Finnish action-based media franchise created by Rovio Entertainment. The game series focuses on the eponymous flock of colorful angry birds who try to save their eggs from green-colored pigs. Inspired by the game Crush the Castle,^[1] the game has been praised for its successful combination of fun gameplay, comical style, and low price. Its popularity led to many spin-offs; versions of Angry Birds created for PCs and video game consoles, a market for merchandise featuring its characters, Angry Birds Toons, a televised animated series, and two films; The Angry Birds Movie and its sequel The Angry Birds Movie 2. By January 2014, there had been over 2 billion downloads across all platforms, including both regular and special editions.^[2][3]

By July 2015, the series’ games had been downloaded more than 3 billion times collectively,^[4] making it the most downloaded freemium game series of all time. The original Angry Birds has been called «One of the most mainstream games out right now»,^[5] «One of the great runaway hits of 2010»,^[6] and «The largest mobile app success the world has seen so far».^[7] The first main-series video game sequel, Angry Birds 2, was released on 30 July 2015.

The first game in the series was initially released on 11 December 2009 for iOS.^[8] At the time, the 2009 swine flu epidemic was in the news, so the staff decided to use pigs as the enemies of the Angry Birds.^[9] The company released ports of the game to other touchscreen smartphone operating systems, including Android. In early 2019, all remaining Angry Birds games released before October 2014 (with the exception of Friends) were discontinued and removed from app stores, though Bad Piggies was added back in early 2020. Rovio has declined to explain their reasoning behind the decision apart from a brief tweet and support response, both giving different answers.^[10] However, in June 2021, by popular demand of the fans, Rovio announced that the classic games will be available on the stores again sometime in the future.^[11] A recreated version of the original Angry Birds game known as Rovio Classics: Angry Birds came to mobile platforms on 31 March 2022.^[12]

Characters[edit]

Birds[edit]

• Red (formerly known as Red Bird, full name Red J. Bird) is a red northern cardinal and the leader of the Angry Birds flock. He was the first bird introduced in the original Angry Birds game. Red is in charge of looking after the birds’ nest of eggs, and coming up with plans to attack the pigs. He is the most responsible and mature in the flock, but is also known for having severe anger issues. Despite this, he has a soft side that only shows when he is with his friends or comforting the eggs. Red is very overprotective, and would risk his life to make sure the eggs are safe and sound.
• Jay, Jake and Jim (nicknamed The Blues and formerly known as the Blue Birds) are cyan blue eastern bluebirds and are triplets that hatched from the same egg. They are some of the youngest in the flock, and share the same mischievous and cheeky thoughts and views. They often get into trouble due to this, but they enjoy putting their skills to good use against the pigs.
• Chuck (formerly known as Yellow Bird) is a yellow Atlantic canary born with the ability to run at the speed of sound. Chuck is cocky and self-loving, but also very energetic. He spends a lot of his spare time playing games and hanging out with his closest friends. He is also very loyal and prioritizes the eggs’ safety more than anything.
• Bomb (formerly known as Black Bird or Bomb Bird) is a black loon diagnosed with a fictional disability called IED (Intermittent Explosive Disorder), which makes him explode when angry or surprised. This makes Bomb the most powerful in the flock, although he doesn’t ever brag about it as he is often calm and reserved until something goes wrong or doesn’t go his way. He is close friends with almost every bird in the flock, and is loyal to all of them.
• Matilda (formerly known as White Bird) is a cream white chicken and the mother figure of the flock. She’s the least angry in the flock and the most peaceful. Matilda loves animals, nature, peace, and her favourite hobby is gardening. However, she has been prone to having bursts of anger herself in the past. Matilda has tried repeatedly to educate the birds in controlling their anger, but it has never worked out. Despite this, she is very lovable and kind-hearted.
• Hal (formerly known as Green Bird or Boomerang Bird) is an emerald green toucan who is also considered the black sheep of the flock. He doesn’t get angry often and doesn’t like to get involved with the fight against the pigs unless it really matters to him. Because of his long beak, Hal has the ability to act like a boomerang, which he often uses as an attack.
• Terence (formerly known as Big Brother Bird) is a maroon desert cardinal and the biggest bird in the flock. He is a silent-but-deadly brute that hardly expresses any sort of emotion or movement, as he only speaks in growls. Terence is easily the most destructive bird, making him the most threatening to the pigs and even some of the birds.
• Bubbles (formerly known as Orange Bird) is an orange spot-breasted oriole and the youngest in the entire flock. He is obsessed with eating candy and sweets non-stop and loves Halloween. His special ability is inflating his body to grow to a gigantic size, flattening anything or anyone in his path.
• Stella (formerly known as Pink Bird) is a pink galah who is very adventurous and energetic. She loves blowing bubbles and hanging out with her best friends. Her homeland is Golden Island, the location of her starring game Angry Birds Stella. She has a short temper similar to Red but is able to control it and use it to her advantage.
• Poppy is a yellow female cockatiel introduced in Angry Birds Stella. Her favourite hobby is to play drums, especially with her friends.
• Willow is a blue female crowned pigeon who appears in Angry Birds Stella. She wears an orange striped knit cap and loves to paint and create art. Willow also made a cameo appearance in The Angry Birds Movie.
• Dahlia is a female owl who only appears in Angry Birds Stella. She is a scientist, and is often in her laboratory performing experiments.
• Luca is a light blue male scrub jay and the only male member of Stella’s flock. He is also the youngest, meaning he doesn’t like to follow the rules often.
• Gale is a violet-backed starling and the main antagonist of Angry Birds Stella. Gale is a former friend of Stella, but betrayed her and the others when she discovered a crown and became the leader of a large army of pigs. In the Angry Birds Stella television series, her main goal was finding the Golden Egg with her Minion Pigs.
• Silver is a female grey Peale’s falcon introduced in Angry Birds 2. When the pigs successfully stole an egg, it soon hatched into Silver. She was raised by the pigs before eventually joining the flock. Silver can perform somersaults to wipe out towers and tall structures built by the pigs.
• Melody is a beige-coloured potoo introduced in a post-launch update to Angry Birds 2. She grew up surrounded by music, giving her a strong interest and love for it. She doesn’t easily get angry, but expresses herself through song when she is. When Melody sings at the top of her lungs, she inhales anything in front of her, which she can shoot out like bullets as an attack.
• Ice Bird is an extraterrestrial being from outer space, who made a one-time appearance in Angry Birds Space. He met the flock when he came down to the Angry Birds’ home planet looking for his Eggstroid which, alongside the flock’s eggs, was stolen by the pigs. Ice Bird is very mysterious and reserved, but has the ability to turn anything into cold solid ice.
• Mighty Eagle is a giant bald eagle who lives in a cave in the tallest mountain on Piggy Island. He is considered a mythical legend by the flock because he is the only bird who can fly. He likes to be isolated, which is why he refuses to join the flock.

Pigs[edit]

• King Pig is the tyrannical, diabolical and greedy ruler of all of the pigs on Piggy Island. For years, he has been focused on his army of Minion Pigs capturing the birds’ eggs for him to eat. His loyal subjects are forced to constantly humour and serve him, all while trying to steal the eggs.
• The Minion Pigs are small pigs that are King Pig’s subjects and the inhabitants of Pig City, the capital of Piggy Island. Stupid by nature, the Minion Pigs are in the lowest rank of the Piggy kingdom society. They love to have fun and to serve King Pig.
• Ross (also known as Freckled Pig) is a Minion Pig who is a supporting antagonist of the Angry Birds series and the main playable protagonist of the game Bad Piggies and its upcoming sequel, Bad Piggies 2. His occupation is to build vehicles, which he pilots to help capture the eggs.
• Chef Pig (also known as Scientist Pig) is the palace chef of Piggy Island, notable for his handlebar mustache and chef hat. As revealed in one episode in Angry Birds Toons, his desire in life is to usurp King Pig’s role as the ruler of Piggy Island. While being a professional cook, he is also shown to be conducting scientific experiments, often utilizing them to trick the birds so that he could cook their eggs. However, these experiments often fail in the end.
• Chronicler Pig is a pig wearing glasses and a judge wig. He is mostly known for his appearance in Angry Birds Toons.
• Corporal Pig (formerly known as Helmet Pig) is the bossy commander of the Minion Pigs. He is the one who comes up with plans to steal the eggs. He spends all day shouting at his minions, using fear to put them in order. Corporal Pig idolizes King Pig and will do absolutely anything to satisfy him.
• Foreman Pig (also known as Mustache Pig) is an elder moustachioed pig and a secondary antagonist of the series. He is responsible and dedicated, although bossy at most times. He is very loyal to his superiors, as he has no doubt in helping King Pig with any problem he has no matter how ridiculous it is. Foreman Pig is known for being an expert at building vehicles and machines, which he can drive with ease.
• Handsome Pig (also known as Hamsome Pig) is a blonde haired pig in Angry Birds Stella.
• Professor Pig is an elderly bespectacled pig, possibly the smartest in the entirety of the franchise. He seems to be a pacifist, as he hates it when the birds battle against the pigs, especially when Foreman Pig steals his blueprint of peaceful inventions as a design to build an egg-napping contraption.
• Leonard is an anthropomorphic pig from the Angry Birds movies and an ancestor of King Pig. He is very confident, enthusiastic and scheming as, in The Angry Birds Movie, he tricked the birds into gaining their trust. Although, he was easily frustrated by Red’s complaints and suspicions, whispering to himself that the bird was a useless jerk. Leonard does almost everything without being worried about the consequences of his actions. He appears as a playable character in Angry Birds 2 and Angry Birds Reloaded.

Controversy[edit]

Leaking user data[edit]

In January 2014, it was revealed that Angry Birds was considered a «leaky app» and was used to collect data about its users including their sexual orientation and location by the National Security Agency (NSA) and GCHQ. In retaliation, anti-NSA hackers defaced Rovio’s website. Claims were made by Edward Snowden that the app was leaky and that they were capable of siphoning data.

According to The Register, the information was leaked through the in-game advertisement code like that embedded by Millennial Media: «Millennial’s tracking software generates a personal record for each user that can store information from their political affiliation and sexual orientation to whether their marital state was single, married, divorced, engaged or ‘swinger’. This information is used to target in-app ads more effectively, and can be collected by UK and US intelligence agencies for analysis».^[140] In a statement to the press, Rovio denied that they were providing any information to the intelligence agencies, but did not exclude the possibility that their advertisers might do so.^[141]

Following this revelation, on 29 January, the Angry Birds site was defaced by hackers who replaced it with «Spying Birds» via a DNS hijacking attack. According to Rovio, «The defacement was caught in minutes and corrected immediately».^[141] The Syrian Electronic Army tweeted after the incident that the attack had been carried out by «a friend» of theirs.^[142]
