Golden Eggs

In the Angry Birds series, Golden Eggs are special items hidden in the game, which unlock additional levels upon collecting them. In most cases, this is achieved by simply destroying or hitting an object or the egg itself in a few levels, while in other cases, it may require the player to touch an object or the egg in the game's menus. For clearing each episode with a three-star rating in every level within, the player will obtain a single Golden Egg, though rather than unlocking a level, it allows the player to access a mini-game.

Extra (The Golden King Pig): This is a special golden egg currently available to iPad users only. The Golden King Pig will be seen on the second page of the Golden Eggs episode. When you tap on the Golden King Pig, you will be randomly sent to one of these 4 EXTRA events and a random level. Note: Your scores will NOT be logged in these events.

Extra Event 1. King Pig: All the birds turn into pigs and all the pigs in the fortress turn into eggs. In each level, each pig has a special ability. To clear the levels, the rules are the same with using the birds: use the pigs to smash all the eggs in the level.

Extra Event 2. Material Mix-Up: Two of the materials of the Pigs' fortress will be swapped. The number of birds in the level and the rules to win remain the same, but with two of the materials switched, it changes the approach of a level.

Extra Event 3. Bird Frenzy: Beat the level with UNLIMITED BIRDS!! When it sounds easy though, it's actually a little challenging. You only have 40 seconds to clear the level and the bird choice is random and you're not told which bird might come next. For example, being given a bunch of Red Birds to combat in an all-ice level is extremely difficult.

Extra Event 4. Total Destruction: Tap the level to explode it! You have 10 seconds. Everywhere you tap creates a small explosion. This event is not nearly as challenging in most cases.

The Golden Egg King


As a promotion for Angry Birds Facebook, a site was lauched for mobile devices allowing players to create an avatar to be used in the future. The avatar builder site references adding your bird to the flock to protect the golden egg. A graphic shows a large golden egg with a crown surrounded by hundreds of birds.

Hundreds of birds cheering as Red Bird, Orange Bird, Yellow Bird, Boomerang Bird, Blue Bird, Black Bird, White Bird, and Big Brother Bird raise it.
