Rovio Entertainment is launching new educational Angry Birds games as part of its previously announced licensing partnership with Legends of Learning.
The first release features two STEM learning games called Angry Birds Eggstraction and Angry Birds and the Multiplication Portal.
“Angry Birds is known for its physics-based gameplay, making it a perfect fit for a game experience that teaches STEM concepts like collisions or multiplication,” said Rovio head, Katri Chacona. “We are excited for students to start playing, and we are sure Angry Birds Eggstraction, Angry Birds and the Multiplication Portal, and the subsequent games will provide an impactful education experience.”
Angry Birds Eggstraction features the classic Angry Birds game style with challenging level designs to teach students concepts related to physics and trajectories.
Angry Birds and the Multiplication Portal challenges students with multiplication problems that allow them to pick licensed Angry Birds characters, aim the characters and launch them through a portal.
As students advance, the levels become more difficult to ensure continuous learning and skill development.
“It’s clear why research study after research study has shown that students get higher test scores when they use Legends of Learning games: engaging with learning through play is part of human nature,” said Legends of Learning CEO, Dr. Vadim Polikov. “I cannot think of a more captivating way to learn science and math standards than with the lovable characters and intricate puzzles of Angry Birds. I couldn’t be more excited for this partnership.”
Angry Birds Eggstraction, Angry Birds and the Multiplication Portal, and upcoming games from the Rovio licensing partnership join a catalogue of more than two thousand other educational games on the Legends of Learning platform.
The Legends of Learning educational entertainment platform is designed to support K-12 students and teachers with curriculum-aligned gaming content.
The Legends of Learning platform is currently used by close to 10 million teachers and students across the United States.
The partnership with Legends of Learning was facilitated by Angry Birds’ global licensing representative, IMG.
Rovio Entertainment is a global interactive gaming company that specializes in creating, developing and publishing mobile games.
The company is best-known for the global Angry Birds franchise which includes a broad range of games, animated content, publishing, licensed consumer products and more.
In 2023, Sega Europe Limited became Rovio’s parent company through the acquisition of over 90 percent of Rovio’s issued and outstanding shares.
