Unfortunately for developer and publisher Rovio, gamers like myself would rather just set the game down when we're told we have twelve minutes to replenish a life-not pay for gems.
Of course, the easiest and quickest way to acquire gems is to buy them with real money. (The game pesters you endlessly to match up with a buddy-annoying, but not game-breaking.) Gems can be found within levels in small quantities or by accomplishing objectives, watching promotional videos, or playing with friends. Once you run out of all five lives, you can either spend gems for an extra life or wait. In Angry Birds 2 you can use gems to retry levels without having to start from the beginning. Or you can join the competitive arena without waiting.
Some games have you wait for a structure to complete, but you can go off and build other stuff and stay busy in other ways (to some degree.) Here, the game simply grinds to a halt.Īs is so often the case, the problems begin with gems. Its implementation in Angry Birds 2 is absolutely awful. Perhaps I'm an impatient mobile gamer, but I dislike being told I have to wait to play a game. I mean, I dislike load screens-and find the continuance of these in modern video game consoles a failure of the industry-but I despise the forced wait that only free-to-play games impose upon us.
Unfortunately, for all the nice changes and innovations to the Angry Birds formula, Angry Birds 2 stalls rather quickly thanks to its poor implementation of in-app purchases.
