Our take on Little Aviary
Its defining format is a movable aviary that remains at the screen edge while birds fly around and perch on top of other open windows.
What is Little Aviary?
Little Aviary is an idle bird collector that occupies a movable area at the bottom of the screen while other activities continue.
Players hatch birds, discover over 40 species with color variants, sell birds, breed them, and decorate the aviary. New areas provide bonuses for different bird types, such as a beach bonus for sea birds. Birds fly around the aviary and perch on top of other windows. The aviary can be zoomed in or out and moved vertically. Each discovered species includes facts to learn. Progress involves expanding the collection, breeding birds to maximize profit, and arranging decorations for birds to perch on.
