January 2011 - Every so often, the Consumer Electronics Show yields something low-tech that is just as exciting as the pricey gadgets that get highlighted on your local television news. Mattel's new game based on a popular iPhone and iPad app caught our attention from this year's show:

ANGRY BIRDS KNOCK ON WOOD Game

Based on the #1 paid iPhone game1 Angry Birds, Angry Birds Knock On Wood Game brings big app fun to physical reality! Now in a table-top game format, build, launch and destroy with exciting skill-and-action just like the app. Getting started is a breeze!

The player with the most points and knockdowns wins! Features three Angry Birds, green pigs, one slingshot-style launcher, structure pieces and multiple mission cards. For 1 or more players.
