The races are dull as they can be and even without the IAP I would have had a hard time getting too far into the game. It doesn’t help that the game is also enormously boring.

After I was told for the fourth time that I can’t play the game because my darned bird was “tired” and that I had to spend money to play I quit the game for good. Honestly, I spent about an hour or so playing Angry Birds Go!. There will be a time when you won’t even be able to pause the game without paying. Now you have these free games with more advertising than an average radio show and packed to the gills with IAPs. It almost makes me miss the times when the worst thing about a free game was having ads that you had to pay to remove. This is pretty much all that is wrong with mobile games these days. Don’t have enough diamonds? Pay real money and buy some. Another option is to use the aforementioned diamonds to instantly use the bird again. Basically, each bird can be used five times (this includes the times when you restart a race), after which the bird gets tired and you’ll either have to switch to another bird if you have one unlocked or wait a few minutes till the bird is ready. You also unlock more birds as you beat them in races, which you can then use to race.Īngry Birds Go! has this concept of your birds getting ‘tired’. If your kart does not fit the minimum engine capacity you’ll compulsorily have to upgrade it. As you win races, you unlock more ones, each of which has a particular engine capacity limit. The diamonds are used for something else, which I’ll talk about later. The coins help you upgrade your kart or purchase new ones. As you go around, you have to collect coins and the occasional diamonds. The tracks are all quite basic and also very short. If you release too early or too soon your kart skids and you end up behind your rivals. The race begins by catapulting the kart from a giant slingshot and you have to time the release just right to jump ahead of your rivals. Once you choose the kart, you start racing. When you start a game, you get to choose a cart and each has different starting advantage, either in speed, acceleration, handling or strength and you can upgrade the carts further later on. In Angry Birds Go!, you race around a track in a makeshift cart against other birds and pigs from the Angry Birds universe in various race types.
