Bird Brain now available for iPod Touch, iPhone

Legacy Interactive has released Bird Brain for iPhone and iPod touch. Bird Brain is a trivia game with an insulting name, because if you’re dumb then someone might call you a bird brain, a dolt, dullard, moron, etc. You get my drift, and if you don’t then you probably are a bird brain.

The challenge of this game is to figure out the order of the trivia questions presented in 20 seconds or less. Trivia questions could be about locations of U.S. landmarks, sizes of dog breeds, ages of the Kardashian sisters (not who has the biggest butt, because everyone knows the answer to that question), and more. Each question requires ranking answers in relation to each other: big to small, newest to oldest, north to south, etc. With 10 rapid-fire questions per round, players must use quick thinking and faster fingers to arrange their list in proper order.

Bird Brain is available for $.99 on iPhone and iPod touch from Apple’s App Store or at www.birdbraingame.com.

This story reminds me of a commercial I saw about getting grilled chicken on a value menu for less than a buck. Word on the street is that you can.
