Poached Eggs 1-2

Poached Eggs 1-2 (A.K.A High Plateaus) is the 2nd level in Angry Birds and is one of the easiest of the game. It contains four Small Pigs that must be destroyed, each sitting on podiums, made up of a vertical stone block (The first three having small stone blocks and the fourth with a longer one) and a horizontal wooden block.

Three Star Strategy
The player must first fire the first Red Bird over all the pigs, so it bounces back off the slanted wall on the far side. It will fly at the last and highest pig, and then knock over the metal bar holding up the pig. It will cause a domino chain reaction. If done correctly, all of the Small Pigs become destroyed, leaving the player with four Red Birds left for an extra 40,000 points.

 Tip:  To activate the domino effect, don't brake any wooden blocks with the Red Bird because that will weaken the bird. If you want to get high scores, hit the blocks as much as possible, but don't break it. After you make the highest pig falls, the Red Bird should push the thin stone blocks to the left. But the wooden blocks must also fall to the left to push the other podiums, or else you'll fail completing the level with 3 stars. The second pig (counting from left to right) is sometimes difficult to pop because you must have enough force to pop it.

Trivia

 * Trick or Treat 1-2 on Angry Birds Seasons is constructed similar to this level, except going up like a staircase and an increased number of pigs. Both levels have the same strategy to get three stars.
