5Bird Week has a unique theme where you play as a mom trying to feed your newborn babies by catching butterflies and bringing them back to the nest. You avoid other birds, predators, and various obstacles that all try to stop you. I found the controls to be a bit awkward as you need to fly with just the direction pad. It also doesn't help that there feels like there is a delay in my actions. The game is not terrible but ultimately I found the repetition and difficulty with controls make it only good in small doses.
