Angry Birds began as a mobile puzzle game released by Rovio in 2009, in which players launch birds from a slingshot to topple structures and defeat green pigs. Its simple mechanics, bright characters and exaggerated cartoon sounds helped it become a global mobile hit and a lasting part of internet culture. Short clips and remixes from the game later circulated widely in memes, edits and reaction videos, where the familiar squawks and crashes instantly signal playful chaos. That recognition keeps the sound useful long after the original game's peak popularity.
