Pretty much everyone should have come across Angry Birds at some point in their life. This is the game where you have to shoot the green pigs with the angry birds. Rovio, the development studio, will be releasing another title with AR features this spring.

The game gets the name Angry Birds AR: Island of Pigs wear and will be in Apple's App Store in spring. Those who are curious can already get a preview of the new game on their iPhone or iPadprobeer The Price: Free but with in-app purchases.

Using Apple's ARKit

The big question is now why the title will only end up in the App Store and not also in the Play Store. The answer to that is that Angry Birds for Apple's ARKit prowas grammed, which is only used on the company's devices. Rovio could possibly also adapt the game for Google's AR framework, but that's not currently the case. Besides, this one can Protake quite a bit of time.

But how does it work Island of the Pigs at all? When you start a level, the surface is scanned first so that the castle with the pigs that need to be destroyed can be built correctly. However, it is important that the playing surface is flat, otherwise the level cannot be rendered. Now you can go around the pig fortress and look for a point from which you can attack with your slingshot.

First testers think that the game is very simple and still fun. So you can give it to smaller children for a few fun minutes without worrying.

A great idea to modify the game again. It also looks very cute - so the children see much better as the buildings fly apart, boards and the pigs fly around. The red bird is cute too.
