Bad Piggies Lets You Build Fun Vehicles

A few days ago I posted about Rovio coming out with a new game where the pigs from Angry Birds would be the star. The game just came out last week and I downloaded it for my iPad and have had a chance to play it. It’s called Bad Piggies. The genre of this type of game has been called a “physics puzzler”. The story goes that the swine are stranded on a desert island and have to build vehicles and contraptions to make their way to the delicious eggs. Your job is to use a limited number of parts to assemble, in a grid like structure, these modes of transportation that will take you to these eggs. Some of the parts that you use to build with include wheels, fans, wood and engines. On your way to the goal there are obstacles like ramps, rocks and jumps for you to take into consideration while building.

I’m excited to progress more into the game because it looks like once you get farther, more advanced parts will become available. Bad Piggies is definitely more difficult than Angry Birds and it will make you think more than it too. If you are expecting a game similar to Angry Birds then you may be disappointed but if you are looking for a contraption builder that will make you think with the some of the same fun gameplay elements that Rovio has brought to you before, this game is for you. The game was so popular at release that it became No. 1 on the iTunes App Store charts in just over three hours.

Rovio’s Bad Piggies Get Revenge on Angry Birds

Not much is know about Rovio’s upcoming game yet but from the sound of it, it looks like it’s going to be an Angry Birds type of game where the pigs from Angry Birds get revenge on the birds. The only teasers we’re getting so far are some screen shots of lots of piggies that look angry and are setting up a slingshot just out of sight of where the birds like to play. They’ve also posted a video with a bunch of pigs falling on an angry bird and the text that follows reads “Something pig is coming” Clever choice of words there Rovio. I hope the game is similar to Angry Birds but unique in its own way that makes it different in a fun and exciting way. The game will be released on Thursday, September 27 for IOS, Android, Mac, Windows Phone, Windows 8 & PC.

Angry Birds Space – We Have Liftoff

Angry Birds Space, the latest Angry Birds game from Rovio is now available to download on iOS and Android deices. I downloaded Angry Birds Space and I must say it is unlike any other Angry Birds game available because of it’s unique new gravity system. Instead of playing Angry Birds in levels with earth-like gravity physics, you play in space where different planets gravitational pulls effect which way you will want to sling your bird. There are also some new bird additions to Angry Birds Space including an ice bird that after you shoot the bird and tap the screen, will freeze and weaken any structure near it. There are little details in the game that make it fun like how the birds are wearing space have space helmets. If you crack and destroy their space helmets, they will still survive for a few seconds before the freeze and blow up. Overall it’s a fun addition to the Angry Birds franchise and will provide a lot of enjoyment.
