Angry Birds 1

'Take aim and hit the pigs!'

You are the chosen one! Are you ready for Angry Birds Star Wars? In this game you will need to enter the 'Pork Side'. Harness 'The Force' and your supernatural powers to help Luke Skywalker and Chewbacca correctly aim their path and eliminate the evil pigs. You will quickly realise that space travel takes parabolic paths so any knowledge that you have gained about quadratic graphs will stand you in good stead. Take care, Young Jedi, to use 'The Force' for good.
