Rovio has beefed up the game with a new mechanics engine, which indicates those bit heroic birds can level up to improve their skills as well as benefitting from the use of light sabers, blasters and mysterious Jedi powers to fight their way to freedom from imperial rule. In a similar fashion to previous games and Rovio’s bad Piggies offering, stars can be earned and used to summon The Mighty Falcon that will give assistance on how to complete certain levels if things get a bit too tough.
The graphics are gorgeous, the characters are wonderful and the accompanying soundtrack is best for the game. iOS individuals will also be happy to know that even though the game is two different purchases for iphone and iPad, at least the iphone variant is fully iphone 5 ready unlike the initial launch of bad Piggies.
