Board games related to the Angry Birds franchise are not new, as the Angry Birds Knock on Wood and Angry Birds On Thin Ice have been available for over a year. What is brand new today (November 8, 2012) is the Angry Birds Star Wars AT-AT Attack Battle Game, coinciding with the release of their new Angry Birds Star Wars iPhone App. (We recently gave you a sneak peak at the Angry Birds Star Wars Fighter Pods.)
Everything gets better if you combine it with Star Wars, and that’s definitely true here. Launching rebels to take out stormtroopers and destroy a fearsome AT-AT walker is certainly more fun than knocking out pigs. This Angry Birds Star Wars board game comes complete with 12 figures (including an exclusive Luke Skywalker wearing Echo Base gear), 8 AT-AT pieces, 21 blocks, and a lightsaber launcher allowing for entertaining recreations of the Battle of Hoth from beginning of The Empire Strikes Back.
