Nov 28, 2012Angry Birds and Angry Birds Space may be great on their own, but combine the two and you get Angry Birds Star Wars, a great tie-in that learns from the mistakes of the past to make something wonderful.
-
Nov 18, 2012It's my favorite game in the series, and is well worth the status of 'must-play' for any iOS gamer.
-
Nov 8, 2012Angry Birds Star Wars is the best Angry Birds game yet, and the best Star Wars spin-off in a long time. It's going to be big, and deservedly so.
-
Nov 14, 2012I figured that it would pretty much be a version of Angry Birds Space with some Star Wars graphical flourishes tossed in to make the game a 'Star Wars game'. After spending time with Angry Birds Star Wars, though, I'm happy to say that there's a lot more to the game than that.
-
Nov 9, 2012It brings back all the elements that made the previous episodes as great as they are, wrapped up by Star Wars. It's still as fun as always, and really recommended if you're a fan of any of the series.

Games Master UKDec 18, 2012Using the Red Bird's lightsaber mid-flight is a joy. [Jan 2013, p.89]
-
Pelit (Finland)Dec 12, 2012This mix'n'match of brands is by far the best adaptation of Angry Birds. It combines all the best sides of the game series and throws in a really nice set of characters. The force is strong in this one. [Dec 2012]

Nov 29, 2012It is a great addition to the Angry Birds universe, giving you more of what you had before whilst feeling fresh enough to warrant the small expenditure. And the best part is this: There's not a bloody Jar Jar Binks in sight. Splendid.
-
Nov 8, 2012As an Angry Birds game, it's great. As a Star Wars tie-in, it's great. Overall, Angry Birds Star Wars is everything you were hoping for, and it handily proves skeptics wrong.
-
Nov 8, 2012Angry Birds Star Wars is faithful to the source material, filled with content, imaginative, and fun. Film tie-in or not, this is the best 'Birds yet.
-
Nov 13, 2012The new Angry Birds gives a fresh take on the IP with a great use of the Star Wars license.
-
Nov 8, 2012Whether or not you're a Star Wars fan, Angry Birds Star Wars is a ton of fun. With its latest, Rovio has proven that Angry Birds can be more than a casual slingshotting time killer. Although it doesn't stray too far from its pick-up-and-play roots, at its best the game contains real challenge and surprisingly clever twists.
-
Nov 13, 2012I've played through all of the Angry Birds games, and had the most fun with this Star Wars-themed version. And that's not just because it's Star Wars. This game shows Rovio is at the top of its game, using a beloved license to deliver the series' most creative levels to date.
-
Nov 13, 2012Angry Birds Star Wars successfully adds something new to the classic Angry Birds gameplay, delivering a rich, fun experience once again.
-
GamesBeatNov 12, 2012Angry Birds Star Wars is far from the most original game you'll play, but the addicting formula still works great, and fans of the classic movies will love seeing this silly take on Luke Skywalker's adventures.
-
Nov 8, 2012A respectable sequel, one that both incorporates the fiction of the brand, but also improves on previous games, progressing the franchise.
-
Dec 24, 2025Angry Birds feels like it's getting a bit old, but it doesn't feel like it's Rovio's fault. There may only be so much that they can do with the core gameplay and formula, but they're at least showing that even when they could get away with a quick cash-in, they're actually trying to continue to iterate.
-
Nov 14, 2012Overall, Angry Birds Star Wars is like a "best of" album for the series, combining terrestrial and space levels with fun character abilities all wrapped in a delightful Star Wars shell.
-
Nov 12, 2012Rovio has managed to create another compelling Angry Birds game, and I have to say it is the best one yet. Given the amount of nostalgia, and hours of gameplay it provides it is a must for any iOS gamer.
-
Nov 9, 2012An odd couple crossover that is not only a loving homage to Star Wars but, more importantly, the best Angry Birds game so far.
-
Nov 26, 2012Angry Birds Star Wars offers enough enjoyment, you don't even need to be a Star Wars fan. Rovio proves it has more than enough ideas; which can be seen in the refined design of the birds and the levels. The birds make the gameplay more action-oriented and the levels demand more finesse. It is too bad you race through the levels at light speed, and are forced to pay more some extra.
-
Nov 8, 2012Angry Birds Star Wars is exactly what you'd expect, so it's a lot of fun.
-
Nov 9, 2012Who gets grumpy from the sound of screaming birds, can skip Angry Birds Star Wars without thinking twice. The base of the game remains unchanged, but its looks have been altered. Whoever perfected previous Angry Birds-games and started showing symptoms of withdrawal, can prepare himself for fun game-nights with pigs and birds from a galaxy far, far away.
-
Dec 24, 2025Angry Birds Star Wars is a solid game based on a tired concept.
