Angry Birds Special Cannon is one of those weird little Flash spinoffs that somehow makes slingshotting birds at pigs feel fresh again. Instead of the usual setup, you're firing them straight out of a cannon—which sounds simple, but the angles get surprisingly tricky when you're trying to nail those smug green pigs hiding behind candy-coated structures.

There’s something satisfying about the way the birds arc through the air in this one, and the candy-themed levels add just enough chaos to keep you experimenting. Miss a shot? No problem, just adjust your angle and watch the whole sugary tower collapse. It’s got that classic Angry Birds "one more try" energy, but with a twist that actually makes it stand out.

Mouse controls are simple—click, drag, and launch—but don’t let that fool you. Some of those later levels will have you second-guessing your aim. If you ever played the original back in the day, this one’s worth a quick nostalgia trip.
