Vehicles creak and bend dangerously when you build something unstable. Your pig’s expression changes from delight to concern when things start to go sideways and constructions explode into cartoony words when they fall apart. It made me laugh every time a vehicle careened into a wall one second after launch, because I underestimated how powerful my rocket would be. It’s a lot of fun when a complex vehicle stuffed with rockets, balloons, motors and wheels performs exactly as expected and crosses the goal line intact, but Bad Piggies is almost more fun when you make a miscalculation. The game even taught me the very basic fundamentals of airplane design. By the end you’ll be constructing multi-stage rockets powered by soda bottles, helicopters adorned with helium balloons & counter-weights and plenty more genuinely elaborate constructions. You’ll start by constructing simple boxes with wheels that just need to roll downhill. Luckily the game’s impeccable design and excellent learning curve ensure that most players won’t remain stuck for long. It’s up to you to invent a solution to each puzzle – there isn’t necessarily one right answer Rovio is forcing players to stumble upon. At the start of each stage you’re shown the level layout, given a collection of parts and then sent on your way. Did we like it?Bad Piggies’ open-ended puzzle designs are absolutely brilliant. A level might require you to open an umbrella to slow a descent or activate soda bottle “rockets” in multiple stages, among plenty more. While in motion, players can also tap icons to activate or deactivate most of their vehicle’s objects. Vehicles will move on their own according to where you place gadgets like motors, rocket boosters and wheels. Construction is simple and intuitive – simply drag a part onto the starting grid and it will automatically snap into place. To reach the end of each stage players have to construct a vehicle using a pre-set pool of available parts. This time around gamers play as the franchise’s dastardly green pigs, on a mission to steal the birds’ eggs.
