Play as a bird mom with the goal to feed your two baby birds until they fly away from the nest. Catch butterflies while avoiding creatures that are trying to stop you.
 
GoodBad
  • Unique theme
  • Cute and adorable characters
  • Bonus rounds add some variety
  • Study mode to jump to any round
  • Awkward controls as you fly by using the direction pad
  • Feels like there is a delay between pressing a button and your character doing what you want
  • Quickly gets repetitive
  • Each round plays very similar

5Unique theme but is too stressful to be a casual game. Not terrible but ultimately the repetition and difficulty with controls make it only good in small doses.
