fromThe grinches will always play their part, even at Christmas time so let's all put on our best Ho Ho Ho's, jingle our bells a little louder, and wish for Peace on Earth Good Will Toward Men, even to those Fa-la-little skunks in our lives, Merry Christmas

If ever a game should win an award for beautiful graphics, Bird Paradise is that game. This game has beauty, originality, variety, and creative imagination...everything we've come to expect from our beloved Mixo Games!

If ever a game should win an award for beautiful graphics, Bird Paradise is that game. This game has beauty, originality, variety, and creative imagination...everything we've come to expect from our beloved Mixo Games!

You can choose to play in a Casual Mode (slow animations, more hints, easier gameplay) a Normal Mode (faster bingo balls, fewer hints, more challenge), or an Expert Mode (quick bingo balls, no hints, harder levels) so everyone can enjoy playing at their own pace.

You begin by playing a Hidden Object Scene with creatively placed objects (if you've played Lost Amulets you will know the style) Some require you to find items listed on paper notes, and others may require finding multiples of the same object or categories in multiples, such as 4 Fruits, and even a Matching Pairs variety. The HO scenes may look simplistic at first glance but somehow this developer has mastered the art of hiding objects in plain sight! I love that the goal of the HO scenes usually involves finding several Bingo Balls or Black Pearls, and they are a lot harder to spot than you'd think!

After the HO scene, you will play a game of Bingo with a Twist. The goal is to click on the Bingo Balls that match the numbers & colors shown on the Bingo Card(s) before the line of balls reaches the end. At first, you only have to complete one Bingo Card but as you progress, they throw in multiple cards and which really keeps you on your toes! It sounds simple but I found the variant of matching symbols to be more challenging than expected. As you progress, Bonus Balls are added to remove color-coded balls, reverse the line direction, or explode a few unwanted balls.

Coins are awarded when balls are removed but to add another level of challenge, some coins must be clicked on to collect them. The coins can be used to purchase Casino tickets to play various mini-games, such as Solitaire, or a Pachinko game, I just wish it had flippers you could use to try to flip the balls back up! Playing the Casino games will allow you to win 4x the points! Points are used to help "Support the Island" by restoring things destroyed in a storm.

This CE version has 21 additional Levels, 20 extra Bingo Blitz games, 20 extra Infinite Matching Fun games, 20 extra Solitaire Games, a Casino game section, Show Introduction Movie, Art Gallery, 7 Music Soundtracks, and Collectibles (in several categories)

I recommend this game!

This is like the first Twistingo with a bird theme this time. We're summoned again to help restore a beautiful paradise, after a ravaging storm. I enjoyed the original game because of the variety of games and its beauty. The artwork is gorgeous.

The spectacular graphics graphics are drenched in brilliant color, the scenes are bright and beautiful, the characters are so well done. There is no ho-hum appearance anywhere which makes the game so enjoyable for me. Rebuilding the birds' homes in the rainforest involves searching the rubble and collecting resources. I had lots of fun with it and enjoyed all the games. I love the HO scenes which includes looking for bingo balls and coins.

The CE has some extras and additional puzzle levels that make it a worthwhile purchase, imo. Even though the gameplay is basically the same as the first installment, I'm picking up this one merely for the beauty which will brighten up my space and cheer me up every time I play. This is one time when challenge is less important to me. Mixo really has a knack for beauty and it really bumped up the quality of this hidden object game. Show less

I recommend this game!

BF with a decent game for once. BUT, I don't buy CEs, I think they are a waste of money.

I don't recommend this game.

This is the second installment in the Twistingo series by Mixo Games and it's an improvement over the first one. I always enjoy seeing a game series evolve for the better! In this game, you are helping to restore a tropical island and saving beautiful birds. The basic game play is the same as the original Twistingo with clutter sorting, matching pairs and of course the mainstay of the game - Zuma style bingo balls. The casino feature returns too - this time with high/low slot machines, one up/down solitaire cards and a really cool pachinko machine! I found Bird Paradise a bit more challenging than the first one - this is a good thing, since the original Twistingo was too easy, imo. Of course the lush and colorful artwork makes this game a real standout - it's just lovely, and the art is complimented so nicely with a peppy little "island inspired" soundtrack. I'm glad I gave this game a chance and you should, too. Highly recommended! Show less

A 10 for the Lovely boards and colors. But I also got annoyed at having to skip the NUMEROUS, VERY SLOW appearing text/story lines that I had to repeatedly skip. It really needs to move the text to just a couple of screens with more text, or let us have the option to "skip" the story text.
