Rovio Mobile just released their sequel to Angry Birds, called Bad Piggies. In this new game, you play as one of the green pigs instead of the Angry Birds, and the gameplay is quite a bit different from Angry Birds.
In Bad Piggies, the idea of the game is to build transport for the green pigs out of various parts, and you then have to move the pigs around using your newly created vehicle. This unique twist on the original Angry Birds formula introduces a fresh and engaging challenge for players.
Gameplay Mechanics and Features
We have just been testing out Bad Piggies on the iPhone, and it seems like a great game, although we have only had around 15 minutes to test it out so far. The game offers a variety of parts to build your vehicle, including wheels, balloons, engines, and more. Each level presents a different challenge, requiring you to think creatively and strategically to transport the pigs to their destination.
The game also includes a sandbox mode where players can experiment with different vehicle designs without the constraints of level objectives. This mode allows for endless creativity and replayability, as you can continually refine and improve your designs.
Initial Impressions and Potential
Based on the initial gameplay of Bad Piggies, it looks like Rovio Mobile could have another hit on their hands as it certainly is a fun game and I can already see how it could become as addictive as Angry Birds. The game’s physics engine is impressive, providing realistic and sometimes humorous outcomes based on your vehicle designs. This adds an extra layer of enjoyment as you watch your creations in action.
The graphics and sound design are also top-notch, maintaining the charming and colorful aesthetic that fans of Angry Birds have come to love. The pigs’ animations and sound effects add personality to the game, making it even more engaging.
Bad Piggies is now available for Google’s Play Store for Android devices, the App Store for Apple’s iOS devices, and also the Mac App Store. We tested it out on the iPhone 4S, and this version retails for $0.99. The game runs smoothly on the device, with no noticeable lag or performance issues.
In addition to the standard version, Rovio has also released a free version with limited levels and in-app purchases for those who want to try the game before committing to the full version. This approach allows a wider audience to experience the game and decide if they want to invest in the complete experience.
Overall, Bad Piggies offers a refreshing and innovative take on the Angry Birds universe. With its creative gameplay mechanics, charming presentation, and potential for endless fun, it is poised to become another beloved title from Rovio Mobile. Whether you’re a fan of the original Angry Birds or new to the franchise, Bad Piggies is definitely worth checking out.
