Explore physics based challenges in a galaxy far, far away. Angry Birds Star Wars II is perhaps one of the odder crossovers in popular culture, but it's a formula that works. Part of this is due to the bright and colorful design at the heart of the experience. Perhaps because they're so iconic, the classic Star Wars characters translate well to the looser caricature lines of the Angry Birds cast. You're put in command of heroic Rebel birds whose job it is to tackle and destroy the Imperial pigs.

On the surface, the formula on which the game runs is basically the same as Angry Birds. You use touch based physics to launch your heroes out of a slingshot and topple the complex environments, but as with every iteration of Angry Birds, a number of new elements add a new coat of paint to the affair. Over 30 characters are available. Each has their own powers and strengths, and they can be swapped out at any time, providing a more tactical element to gameplay.

Angry Birds Star Wars II is available as either a free game supported by the inclusion of ads or as a premium game locked behind a one time purchase.
