How to play
Raccoons have taken the ducks’ eggs and hidden in forts. Press anywhere on the range, pull back the way you’d pull a slingshot, and let go: the further you pull, the harder the bird flies, and the dotted line shows where it starts off. Knock out every raccoon to clear the level. Clear it with birds to spare for more stars (one bird left over is two stars, two or more is three).
On a keyboard, the arrow keys set the angle and power and Space flings. You can also use the buttons under the range.
The birds
Mallard: a good all-rounder. Teal: tap in the air to split into three; best against ice. Merganser: tap to dash forward at speed; cuts through wood. Goose: big and heavy; tap to drop straight down; the one for stone. Eider: tap to burst, or it bursts by itself a moment after it lands. Red crates burst too when they break.
Duels
In a duel, two to four players take turns flinging at the same fort with five birds each (one of every kind), and each shot scores what it breaks: 5,000 for a raccoon and a few hundred for each block. The most points wins. Play against the computer, pass one device around, or play online with everyone on their own phone.
Tips
Hit towers low and from the side to bring the whole thing down. Raccoons are soft, so a falling plank or a rolling log often does the job. Save the goose for stone and the teal for ice. Your last shot’s path stays on screen as white dots, so you can adjust from it.
Is my progress saved? Yes, on this device: your stars and best score for every level.
