What is the name of the first episode in the original Angry Birds?

The first episode in the original Angry Birds is “Poached Eggs.” The initial iOS release in December 2009 contained just this episode, organized into three themed chapters with 21 levels in each chapter. It introduced the core formula: launching birds from a slingshot to destroy structures and defeat green pigs.

“Poached Eggs” was followed by additional episodes as Rovio updated the game. “Mighty Hoax” arrived in February 2010, while “Danger Above” followed in April. Because those names became familiar parts of the early game, players sometimes remember one of them as the opening episode, but they were later additions.

The title also fits the game’s central story: the pigs have stolen the birds’ eggs, and the flock attacks their defenses to recover them. Later versions and remakes changed the game’s availability and technology, but “Poached Eggs” remains the canonical name of the original opening episode.
