![]() The bomb bird became Obi Wan Kenobi, and he can throw objects using the Force. The normally weak red bird has suddenly become powerful being cast as Luke Skywalker, gaining the ability to swing a light saber. The biggest difference between this and the other games is that, each bird (as well as the piggies) gets to act out the characters in Star Wars, giving them some brand new abilities and making the levels more challenging. Some levels can be unlocked after getting a certain number of stars. ![]() However, in place of a large piggy, you’ll get laughed at by a Darth Vader Piggy instead when you failed a level, heh. Your performance in each level is still graded through stars. You still fling the birds using a sling shot and eliminate all piggies onscreen by destroying their bases. There were a lot of instances that I accidentally bring out the charms bar or the left-hand swipe (which is used for switching between Metro apps) when I try to pause or reload the game and during gameplay. I do have a problem with the game’s control locations, which are located on the left or right side of the screen. There’s no exit button, so you close the game as you would any other apps: by dragging the upper portion of the screen down to the bottom. The game feels right at home with Windows 8 tabletization that puts emphasis on full-screen applications. This means that I won’t have any access to some levels and I can’t be able to access the game’s XBox Live integration, however. ![]() I installed the trial version, sadly I had no means of purchasing the full version, which is priced at ₱220 (roughly $5.50). I included this title, mostly because it was one of the showcase apps in the store. ![]() I was browsing for apps in the Windows 8 store and tried installing some apps just for the sake of finding out the look and feel of downloading and running these so-called Metro apps. I did install the game, eventually, but for a different reason. So, when Angry Birds and Star Wars started posting the same contents in my news feed (I liked both their pages on FB), I had zero interest in the announcement of a crossover game merging the two universes. I didn’t even bother checking out Space anymore, or even the spinoff game Bad Piggies. I am keeping the original and Seasons, but uninstalled Rio because I’m still working on the first two and wonder if I will ever finish them, considering that I have two more level sets in the original and is stuck in the 2011 levels for Seasons. But outside of the game, I wonder how far can Rovio stretch the game before the formula snaps. Granted, I would still fire away the original game on a rest day and before long, I would have realized I have burned away hours into the game, painstakingly abusing the refresh button to unlock three stars in each level.
