“Angry Birds: Hatching a Universe” is your backstage pass into the wild ride that turned a simple mobile game into a whole phenomenon. This book spills the beans on how the genius minds at Rovio, the Finnish company behind Angry Birds, pulled off this epic expansion. They’ve even got interviews with the big shots at Rovio, so you know it’s legit.
The story kicks off with the game’s early days and how it became a sensation, and then it dives into all the crazy stuff that came after. Seriously, they’ve teamed up with NASA and even cooked up games like Angry Birds Space. This is some next-level stuff!
But the coolest part? You get to see stuff you’ve never seen before. Think sketches, concept art, and all kinds of visual goodies that give you a sneak peek into how this whole universe was born. Plus, they’ll break down how they made every single bit of Angry Birds, from the games to the movies. It’s like a secret behind-the-scenes tour of your favorite blockbuster.
Bottom line, “Angry Birds: Hatching a Universe” is like a treasure trove for fans and anyone curious about how something as simple as flinging birds at pigs became a global sensation. It’s a wild ride you won’t want to miss!

Angry Birds: Hatching a Universe is the book on the art and making of the game.
This is a beautiful 162-page hardcover published by Insight Edition. There are a few removable goodies included, such as posters, postcards, stickers, a bookmark, do-not-disturb door knob holder and perforated cardboards of the birds that you can fold into.
The art includes character designs, environment art, concepts, stage designs, promotional materials, comic panels and sketches. These are for the original, Angry Birds Rio, Angry Birds Space and Angry Birds Star Wars. There are many special editions for the games so not all are included. Of the holiday-themed episodes, there's Ham'o'ween,
The book's just filled with art, no screenshots of games are included. There's art from the animated shorts as well. One chapter features the realistic paintings by Sam Spratt. There aren't any photographs except for the gatefold of Angry Birds merchandise. Even the employee profiles of Rovio are drawn.
The text covers the making of the game with the staff interviews and interesting stories. They talk about the characters, bringing the birds to comics and animation, creating sequels, localising content for foreign markets, and working with other partners, such as Hollywood for Rio, NASA for Space and Lucasfilm for Star Wars.
This is a wonderful artbook. It's a great read and the art is beautiful.
Highly recommended to fans.
