"Angry Birds Friends" is a puzzle shooting game. In the game, players need to control a group of birds and help them recapture a group of eggs stolen by a green pig. At each level, piglets are made of materials such as wood, ice and stone. Players use slingshots to shoot birds directly at pigs or to collapse buildings. The goal of the game is to destroy all the pigs in the level. And indirectly overwhelmed the pig. On many levels, extra props are provided in the scene, such as boxes or stones with explosives, which can cooperate with the collision of birds and can defeat pigs in inaccessible locations.

In the game, the player controls a slingshot to shoot wingsless birds to attack buildings and pigs, and kill all the pigs in the level as the ultimate goal.There are 11 different kinds of birdies available in the game. Among the earliest levels, only the most basic red bird is available. However, as the game progresses, there will be more types of birdies to use, some of which can cast special abilities by tapping the touch screen while flying in the air. For example, the blue bird (smallest size, good at breaking ice) will split into three slightly smaller birds, the yellow bird (good at drilling wood) can speed up the sprint, and the black bird (bulky, good at breaking stones) It will explode, and the white bird will drop the explosive egg and then fly away on the right at high speed. The green bird will fly round. Piglets also come in a variety of sizes, and small pigs are relatively more vulnerable. Fragile pigs can be destroyed by direct blows or using the debris of destroyed buildings, and larger pigs can withstand more damage. There are also some pigs wearing helmets to make them more defensive.
