Angry Birds go-carter updated with new levels and polish

Classic iOS racing game Angry Birds Go was recently updated to include new levels with a winter theme, gameplay balances, and interface polish.

Angry Birds Go is not a perfect game. The amazing level of polish and fun of the actual game itself is let down by an over aggressive monetization system full of premium currencies and timers. The strange thing is, these are completely unnecessary: the game plays extremely well if you ignore the premium currency, and the timers become superfluous after you’ve unlocked a few characters.

If you want to enjoy this game, the only thing you really should buy is the currency doubler. The rest is all superfluous. Which is unfortunate – I can’t help but think Rovio would have a much stronger product if they just sold it outright with the correct balancing to begin with.
