Golden Eggs

In the Angry Birds series, Golden Eggs are special items hidden in the game, which unlock additional levels upon collecting them. In most cases, this is achieved by simply hitting/destroying the egg, while in other cases, it may require the player to touch an object in the game's menus.

For clearing each episode with a three star ranking, the player will obtain a single Golden Egg, though rather than unlocking a level, it instead allows the player to access a small mini-game.

Locations
This is a list of all of the Golden Eggs that appear in the series. There are 27 in all.

By tapping or clicking the egg, the player opens it and can proceed to Golden Egg Level 1.

The Golden Egg King
As a promotion for Angry Birds Facebook, a site was lauched for mobile devices allowing players to create an avatar to be used in the future. The avatar builder site references adding your bird to the flock to protect the golden egg. A graphic shows a large golden egg with a crown surrounded by hundreds of birds.
