    For its low price tag of just 2€, this game offers a lot replay value. It consists of two ridiculously addictive and intuitive, but simultaneously challenging arcade-style mini games in a simplistic, but appealing art style and with catchy background music. From my experience, it is best enjoyed in short bursts and can be a fun distraction during trips.

It consists of two ridiculously addictive and intuitive, but simultaneously challenging arcade-style mini games in a simplistic, but appealing art style and with catchy background music. From my experience, it is best enjoyed in short bursts and can be a fun distraction during trips. Even though I'm entirely satisfied with the contents of the package in relation to its price, I feel like a few more cosmetic options, multiplayer or even the inclusion of Pyoro T in addition to the already present Pyoro and Pyoro 2 mini games would've been appreciated, even if that meant raising the price tag.… Expand

    This game is just too simple to be fun for more that some hours. There is no stategy to be developed, you will hit the skill ceivling almost instantly. The rest is based on luck. It's not worth even the 2$/€

    I loved this game, the most addictive I've played in a long time. I used to think my iPod Touch was the king of pick up and play but now with this and paper plane. I feel compelled to get the rest of the launch line up. Best

    I'd rather get some fresh new projects on DSi instead of recycled microtransactions, but at least the content in Bird & Beans is fun, frantic, and certainly worth two bucks.

    A great little time-waster that's nice to have in your pocket, always at the ready. Two dollars for the package of two varieties is a heck of a deal.
