Early Bird
Is It Any Good?
There's not a lot that's especially original about Early Bird, but the game still manages to charm your socks off. Swiping the screen to make your onscreen bird fly, after all, is one of the most common mechanics in the app world, but the attention to detail in the game is worthy of note. The artwork is wonderful and appropriate, the sense of satisfaction you get when your bird lands a perfect bullseye is real and the atmosphere is endearing. It's also priced at an easily digestible 99 cents, making Early Bird worth a peep ... er, peek.
