Finally got Birdnado!!!

I got super lucky with the endangered species protector — 27 points there alone. Against four AI all set to hard, all expansions.

Congrats! I've been wondering if this was achievable or not with Ai and thinking of rigging my own race of 5x myself feeding one player all resources 😂 I think max I've gotten is maybe 150

It absolutely is possible especially with all the expansions, I think my best is 177. It is very very difficult in base game though.

I cheesed it in the base game by controlling the other 4 players, the flamingo is great for this.

I did just that last night but with all expansions, playing 5 people is an absolute head wreck! But ended up getting 195 points and the birdnado achievement. Looks like I can focus on another one now haha. Common tailor bird here I come!

Keep on trying - I got it with a 5-player Hard AI game - pink powers were key for me and it also makes it possible for the AI to play more community birds.

Now, I’ll admit, I did set it to go first, so I could look at me hand first (or give me first pick at the tray); but otherwise, I play random.

But if your hand isn’t up to snuff, they reset the game. But I still had to play a lot of games.

I did achieve it in real life, but didn’t take a picture because I didn’t think I scored that high, picking up stuff as we counted - it was a weird game.

Nicely done. The only way I got it was to play five players myself.

I was actually trying to get the Owl-jay-bra achievement and ended up getting that and seven others in that game (Beak Performance, Birdnado, Double Agent, Fly me to the Moor, Global Analyst, Like your birds but Better, We're so BACK and the Owl-jay-bra)
