Angry Birds Rio was the third puzzlevideo game in the Angry Birds series, developed and published by Rovio Mobile. Based on Angry Birds, Angry Birds Rio was released for devices using Apple'siOS and Mac OS X, as well as Google's Android in March 2011.^[1] The game was released as a marketing tie-in with the 20th Century Fox and Blue Sky Studios animated films Rio and Rio 2, and was promoted with those movies.^[2] While utilizing the same basic gameplay as the original game, Angry Birds Rio added a number of new elements, most notably the first use of boss levels.

Gameplay[edit]

In Rio, the Angry Birds have been kidnapped and taken to Rio.^[1] Just as in the original Angry Birds, players use a slingshot to launch birds at nearby structures, with the intent of hitting targets located on or within them. Instead of the pigs that have stolen eggs, players must now rescue caged exotic birds or defeat Nigel's marmosets, depending on the level being played. Because of the game's setting, several characters from Rio make appearances. Blu and Jewel both feature as types of bird exclusive to this game, along with all the existing birds from the series.

The game also includes the first boss fights to appear in the series, when the player uses the birds to defeat Nigel, the main antagonist from the film, as well as Mauro, the leader of the marmosets. In other levels, Luiz helps defeat the marmosets and destroys materials and blocks to get the player extra points,^[3] as well as hidden items to collect as the player progresses through the game.^[4]
