If you’ve got a Nook and you love Angry Birds, you’re in luck.
Rovio is rolling out a new update for the game exclusively for users of the Barnes and Nobel e-reader.
The feature, called Mighty Eagle, recognizes when players enter specific locations – like a Barnes & Noble store, for example – and unlocks new content or functionality based on the location.
The Angry Birds app for Nook Color is a specialized app, different from the game that all other Android users have access to.
This specialized version of the game costs $2.99.
This is the latest update for the Nook brand in its attempt to move away from the dedicated e-reader category and appeal to the multi-function tablet crowd instead.
The function of the Nook Color changed in a big way when B&N decided to restrict the software and give users unlimited access to the Android Market and all of Android’s other features.
As part of this Angry Birds announcement, B&N retail locations are also offering stickers and temporary tattoos based on the game for a limited time.
