Scoring System

You can rack up the points by hitting pigs, bricks, and clearing levels within the game. The scoring system is quite detailed, with various points awarded based on bird color, direct or indirect hits, items that are destroyed and a variety of level bonuses.

Game Strategy

Strategize to maximize your points. Yellow birds yield the most points for direct hits on pigs, while blue birds are best for destroying large brick targets. Plan your shots, and use each bird wisely.
