![]() ![]() This makes it different from games such as Amazing Alex or Cut the Rope and more akin to Tiny Wings in the way you have to approach the game. You have to zoom fully in before any of the contraction parts are visible or usable. In Bad Piggies, it requires a good memory or lots of zooming out and zooming back in. In Angry Birds, my usual mode was to zoom out as far as possible before launching my penguins or bluebirds. It's also incredibly innovative as physics puzzlers go - I've never seen quite this style of contraption-building app, and it's actually pretty nifty.įor one thing, you can't easily see the entire map/level at a glance. Also amusing is the way that landing from a great height results in a set of little stars encircling the piggies head. I loved the way that the pig's face would light up with a grin when the bottle rockets are set off, or it's lifted into the air by balloons. You can use the bottle rockets to propel your contraption forward or upwards (or downwards, if needed), applying the burst of cola-power when you need them. Here, the contraptions involve balloons, fans, and bottle-rockets made of fizzy cola or lemonade. There are similarly 45 levels for When Pigs Fly. In total, there are 45 levels for Groundhog Day, which corresponds to 135 stars that you can collect. One thing about the blue levels is that you may have more than one pig to deal with in your contraption - hello, King Pig. You have to score eight stars across the four levels to unlock the blue level, so it pays to check objectives on each level before you start to avoid missing out on unlocking the blue levels. no three-stars for you!įor every four levels you complete, there's a special blue level devoted to retrieving a blue hat. You can have a perfect run, but if you used wheels when the objective is to complete it with no wheels. Unlike in Angry Birds, where your score determines how many stars you get, Bad Piggies has objectives, which are revealed using a magnifying glass at the top right of the screen. It sounds like a tiny detail, but it adds immeasurably to the engaging nature of the game. There's something incredibly endearing about the way the pig watches you move parts around in the contraption that you build around it. In the Groundhog Day set of levels, all the physics revolves around wheeled contraptions. Rovio has consistently added extra maps to its other games. A fourth section says "coming soon" and is presumably for expansion maps. The maps are divided into three types - 'Groundhog Day', 'When Pigs Fly' and 'Sandbox'. It explains why the piggies we meet in Angry Birds are always in around and on boxes. Your pig has a selection of boxes, wheels, balloons and soft drink bottles, and from these needs to construct a vehicle that can get him to the location of the map. They've lost the map to the eggs, thanks to an accident that tore it into tiny pieces, and now the pigs need to track down the parts of the map so that they can recapture the eggs.Įach level takes a physics puzzler approach, rather than the shooter-style game of Angry Birds. ![]() Following on the success of Angry Birds, Angry Birds Seasons and Angry Birds Space, Bad Piggies tells the pigs' side of the story. ![]()
