It’s been a runaway smash on the iPhone, hogging the #1 slot in their gaming download charts for what seems like an eternity, and now Android users will be able to get in on the act.
Like crack on toast
There’s not a lot to the game, but it’s devilishly addictive, with players having to use their skill to aim red birds out of a catapult to hit targets placed in tricky positions.
The game has been downloaded over 5 million times on the iPhone, and a version recently became available to Palm Pre users, although there’s only an ‘Angry Birds Lite’ version to be found in the Android Market right now.
Here’s the official release to explain why:
Angry Birds Lite Beta is now available at the Android Market. Please note that this is the beta version of the application, which is still undergoing final testing before official release. Angry Birds Lite Beta is an unfinished version of the application and may not reflect the final gameplay.
