Bad Piggies Reviews

by ZBen Ctarik

My review is not about the gameplay, since I barely got to play any of the game. I got it a few days ago, and when I opened it recently to play, it was greyed out and the only thing I could click is the new game mode, cake race. I hate when games do that, but fine, figured ill just click it, back out and play the game. But, you can only play cake race after you play the first five levels of the real game. But, it wont stop being greyed out so I can play the real game until I play cake race, which I cant. So I'm stuck in an infinite loop between the greyed out main menu, where the only thing I can click is the cake race cupcake icon, and the menu that comes up afterwards, where I can choose between "ok" and the x, both of which just take me back to the menu. So it's pretty much broken, and I can't play either game mode.

I bought this years ago and I remember it fondly because there were no ads or micro-transactions whatsoever. As time went by, with every “update,” arrived an ever-increasing, obstructive, in-your-face style ads that popped up every step of the way, whether I advanced to the next level or simply paused the game. The micro-transactions that followed became the extra salt in the wound. Ultimately these atrocities ruined my gaming experience, so I deleted it BadPiggies from my phone along with all the other games created by Rovio for the exact same reasons.

Fast forward to 2022. I was hoping that Rovio would learn from these mistakes and update or remake Bad Piggies like they did for Angry Birds Classic (no ads or micros-transactions). Unfortunately nothing has changed with the former, so I deleted this game from my phone once more.

The road to el porkado is entirely useless since most levels have bridges, and every bridge gets stuck inside a wall and phases in and out of existence so that some levels are impassable, the amount of cake you get to feed the pig king is far too much, reaching 150 without even trying, and you have to slowly feed it one by one for such little tiny reward. The only way to sort of unleash your creativity isn't actually sandbox mode, which feels somewhat mislabeled, but is actually their $3 field of dreams DLC. And the daily crate system constantly puts them in the el porkado levels, and the crates often give you a pitiful amount of reward, even the gold crate only gave 32 bolts/nuts, 2/3 parts were ones I already had, and just a couple of power ups. The ads are incessant and the only way to keep up with their coin currency is to constantly watch ads for gem, but then most of the time if you instead just repeat the same level or progress it still plays an ad for you without reward. It feels entirely arbitrary. After playing the game when it came out, and coming back to it two years later, I feel it's gotten worse. More features don't equate to a better game. Time just flies by while playing this, but instead of leaving you entertained, at a certain point in the game it just drives you crazy.

TLDR: Amazing at killing time, and driving you crazy.

So I decided I wanted to start playing this game again in 2020. So I started playing and the game was fine but I saw a few bugs but that’s not my problem. Right now I’m requesting a refund because I never got my field of dreams in-app purchase and wasted $3 on it. I went to go restore purchases and it said it failed or didn’t even let me do it. Either the developers don’t put time into BadPiggies anymore or they are scamming me out of my money. Both are really annoying as this was a good game and I really like this game and I wish they kept going on with it but apparently angry birds 2 is what they are still working on and that game I think is pure crap compared to the original games especially the first angry birds and angry birds Star Wars and rio and stuff like why rovio!!! That’s why you should not purchase anything from this game anymore because it’s literally broken and has lots of bugs. Trust me you’ll get scammed out of your money! 🤬🤬

Too much set up that never ends. Then adds mixed in. Once the game starts, interaction stops.

All great at communicating to people more than familiar with it already, but immediately meaningless to newbies, and figuring out the meaning is, as mentioned (above), endlessly setting up. I think Rovio is just waiting for earlier generations to die off, as their other still existing games (they’ve made the older [much much better] ones, that you could just sit down and play immediately, unavailable) are as bad in this regard as this one.

So, as I said, unplayable (sigh).

Please do better. You’ve done so in the past, so I know it is possible (did you guys just lose, somehow, all that expertise?).

With great regret (honestly, you have no idea) I’ll delete BadPiggies . If I hear you’ve improved this (also, get rid of the extra abundant crazy amount of distracting boring meaningless dull-as -F*** flashiness, and return to the rich beauty where you notice something new every time you play but doesn’t block and distract from the gameplay), I may explore again.

But its not worth checking in more than once every few years, as I’ve just done so now, and STILL the games are everything in this lament: looking great, but completely unplayable.

First of all, the devs did a good job fixing the Road to El Porkado levels with the whole glitch with the bridges. However, this had created many more glitches. Let's just say I have played this game religiously for as long as I can remember. There have been few glitches in the game, and fewer I could exploit. Now, we have a buttload of glitches. For example, there are small visual glitches with many of the animations. These animations are mostly harmless though. Next, the loot crates are typically hit or miss when it comes to... Well... Loading. The custom part machine straight up doesn't work anymore, and I can't get my alien parts I have saved up a lot for. The game crashes whenever I try to record with the camera icon. I'm not sure if this a glitch, but all the loot crates for me are wooden, metal, or golden, which I find beneficial. Finally, in the cake race, I have gotten downgraded all the way back to the piggy cup, when I'm supposed to be in the king cup. I understand you guys are trying to fix this game ad much as you can, but this update had done more bad than good.

Update: They finally fixed the part machine! It kinda took them long enough, and I'm really glad.

by Revinatobia

I use to play this game when I was like 8, I use to play it all day. Now it like no one notice it. Also the game is to much glitchy bc they have not update it in like 4 years. It completely dead this game. To the people who made this game We want a come back to this game it will bring up my childhood back. I feel like even the people who made this game forgot about it. I know no body ask for this game like no one ask for the movie. for the past 2 weeks I recently played this game just to see what changes they made on last 6 years. They made nothing. I hope in the future they can make it at least a little noticeable bad piggies

by AwesomeRobloxGamerYT

So, I just got this game today and... well, I think I’m going to just go all out. This game is awesome! It’s sooo well made and the pigs squeals are just the best! But, while I was looking through the sandboxs I came across the pack that cost $2.99 (I can’t remember what it’s called) but anyways I could not buy it. I Tapped on it, hit buy, and nothing happened. All it was was a loading screen but no way to complete the purchase. It was just a loading screen and nothing else, just a loading screen. I was on that for about 5 mins when it all of a sudden said “Sorry, your purchase can not be completed.” OMG, you wait 5 mins then tell me that it can’t be complete. (sorry for the caps) but this issue can be easily fixed and I think that It should be fixed.

by Mom2-3amazingkids

The game is great but I don’t know if it’s just me or if this is a problem that occurs often but when I try to open BadPiggies it shows the loading screen but it doesn’t show that it’s loading and it just freezes up. I’ve tried force closing BadPiggies , closing it normally, even deleting it and re downloading it but it just won’t seem to work if you can fix this it would mean a lot to me I love this game overall though it’s probably one of my favorite games.

by Make It A Little Easier😾

It’s not the screen on my phone but when I’m trying to build like I can’t place the block in some places sometimes like sometimes the block won’t come out or it will but I’ll move it to a certain spot and the block just disappear and the bug aside do u think U can make the field of dreams build spot where that when u build something and u push the move whole build to the side can u make it where it won’t just stop if a block is at edge and make it where u can slide the thing out (here’s a small example) say the building space was 5x5 well it would be cool if u can make something five blocks long and u push the move whole build over button and it moves it out of the building area then u can make a 6 block long line or even longer but only on field of dreams oooorrr if u can’t do that can u at least expand field of dreams 6 blocks longer and 5 blocks higher? This may be a lot to ask but it would be really nice 👍

I’ve got good memories of this game. I got it during my childhood, and more recently decided to pick it up again. It’s pretty fun, trying to think of the best way to get to the goal. However, this game has aged, and inconsistent physics combined with bugs in collisions has made a few levels less about strategy, and more about luck. While that can be annoying, it’s not impossible to deal with, unlike what happened about a month ago. They had released their first update in years, and it had broken EVERYTHING. Crates couldn’t be opened, players couldn’t access the levels, and my save data was rendered inaccessible. I had it linked through Facebook, which the game refused to connect to. Fortunately, these issues were fixed today, but they’re forcing me to allow data tracking, and I have no guarantee that it will keep working. The game itself would get 5 stars, but the issues I’ve faced have forced it down a star.

by SuperSaiyanGodCortez

I love this game. It bring a back so many memories. But there are quite a few things that are really problematic for me.

1. Sometimes when I get bolts, coins, or EXP (particularly from King Pig) the number increases and then decreases. And sometimes it does not go up at all or even goes down. Why is that?

2. The only way you can use the spinner is to level up, and it takes too long to get EXP. It feels like I’m only getting 5 EXP per level. There should be something where you can do a daily spin or something.

3. The only way you can get coin currency is by watching ads. There’s no other way to get them other than King Pig. Why aren’t there missions or achievements or something?

4. I can’t find some parts in the instructional idea manual.

5. It takes too long to get bolts for ⭐️⭐️⭐️ parts.

6. Sometimes you’ll get parts you already have, and this makes it quite painful to try to get every different part in the game.

Despite the fact that this game has quite a few flaws, Bad Piggies is still a very fun game for killing time, and it’s fun to try to do your best on every level. If you like Angry Birds pigs or building transports to beat levels, this is a good game to play!

by The Young Adoogie

As old as this game is, and as fun as it is, I’ve reinstalled it recently, and have been playing it for a while now. At one point, I decided to make a Facebook account so that I could save all of my data, just in case. This is what happens if you ever connect an account with an already data driven game of Bad Piggies:

All of your parts are said to be new.

All cake race progress is lost until the next season begins.

All sandbox levels will unlock at the same time, (if already unlocked prior) making a distorted noise, and will do the same unlock feature every time you look at another part of the screen or reload the game.

Levels will also bug, and can’t keep track of how many you’ve completed sometimes, or of how many stars you have.

Achievements will reappear whenever you do their specific action again.

All level creations will not be saved, including the A to B to C pre-built power up contraptions. (Field of Dreams and all sandboxes also lose their creations, yet save their data.)

If you’re wanting to save your data, don’t do it unless you really know that it’ll be deleted.

by TropicDave173

Cake Race is honestly not a bad gamemode. It gives you free crates (although I have no idea why you can’t discard the lower tier crates in the slots, I can see why but still), quite some XP, and a bit of a challenge. My only complaint is the skill differences between matches sometimes. Now to be fair, that isn’t always a problem. But when it does happen, it’s always with someone several levels above yours. Even if you do try your best, you still lose to them regardless. A way to fix this is to find players either a level above or below yours. I just wanted to go on a rant, since this has happened to me many times as of now.

by AidanGamer789

Even how literally most animations are broken, there is still a HD version but I really prefer to play this. Remember when this game was removed? I am so happy it was added back. The game is still basically the same but if you’re endgame (which I’m not close to at all), you can still continue playing the “Cake Race” and the sandbox free roam place that you need money to pay for (it’s called sandbox of dreams I think). The “Sandbox of Dreams” is where you can build any possible machine you want as what if, the Cake Race is an online competitive mode. So basically, you have to get as much cakes as you can in a matter of time. The cakes give you points which whoever with the most points wins. Winning gives you crates which crates give you items to customize also. Another way to get crates are to find them in levels daily. If you don’t want to grind a lot for crates then grind for bolts, you can trade 80 each for a randomized customized item. The levels and the other sandboxes can be hard and a pain but sometimes can be fun. If you didn’t know, this is a puzzle game that can give your brain a challenge. Don’t worry because you can use coins for power ups and hints. Why don’t you give this game a try?

by Gooftroop1021

I really don’t think ANYONE should be complaining about this game. Sure, the Field of Dreams cost $3 but if you think about it, in sandbox you could maybe make some kind of flying machine or something like that. And you know what? I feel like the game has gotten BETTER. The crates are pretty good and it’s nice to be able to customize your parts for your piggy. I guess it IS a little hard though, but that’s just how Bad Piggies is. You have to guess and check and get creative about what you build to succeed! Anyways Rovio you did a great job on this game! Could you maybe come back to this game someday and update it to make more people enjoy it please? Good luck on making Angry Birds: Isle of Pigs!👍

The Road to El Porkado fixed the levers but the pictures were clipping in the level titles. Plus, when the camera icon is pressed, the game crashes. Please fix the clipping and the camera icon crashing the game. There was also advertising in the game after I complete a few levels. The developer should add bad piggies without ads. But when I play this game on an iPhone, none of this happens except the advertising. I don’t know why it happens, but I will try not to make it happen. I am trying to see if there is a game called bad piggies 2. If there was a game like that, they will add new modes like, unlimited building mode, and piggy egg finder. I suggest this will come soon. This game is cool, but kinda glitchy.

by SwannyJocker

Hello, Please make a game called Bad Piggies 2! If you would make a game like that, add a unlimited building mode, 3-D Machines, oh and also, please add more levels in Bad Piggies.
Bad Piggies 2, Will be a better game I’m guessing it will come out in a few months. Now for the problems of Bad Piggies, First off, When I press the camera icon, The game crashes.
Please fix that! Also, The images on the pigs are clipping in and out on the level titles. Oh also The Cake Race, It matches me with players that are levels 20 or greater
than me and I never win. Please fix the clipping in and out bug, the camera bug, also the cake race bug.
But, thanks for fixing the glitch in The Road From El Porkado.
But, BadPiggies is still PRETTY GREAT!!! Oh, Also the update, please add a new mode that is called “Unlimited Building”,
More episodes like, Deep In The Pigcific, Muddy, Pigsy Mountains, And King Pig Rivers. And please add another game mode that is called, “Piggy Egg Finder”. I’ll tell you how to play, you build a machine, find all 5 eggs in 1:00, Find the final golden egg and get 50 three-star parts.

I Hope You Fix These Bugs and like my ideas, Jan, 2019 Happy New Year Rovio!

This game is so much fun. I’ve been playing this game for hours and hours. I had the best time ever. But...I was just curious about making a Bad piggies DELUXE! I’m not saying you have to. But you could if you want... But if you did, I would like to tell you what you should add.

•Foreman pig. I know he is in cake race, but I would think having him in one of each levels.. would be pretty cool.

•Red soda or any other color of soda. This would be great for making things go faster. Or make a battle between Red vs Green soda! I think personally you should add that.

•Cannons. This would be a fabulous idea to add cannons to the game. Maybe the players of the game can put the pig in the cannon and the make it shoot out of the cannon.

•Dorkish Porkish levels. I chose that name just so I can be creative... but you can change it if you want.

•3 boxes boxing gloves. It will be good for trying to the birds out of your way.

•Anvil thrower. This would also be good for the birds or for fun.

•And the last one.... Adding corporal pig to a skin roster.
Usually corporal pig is just the same as the minion pigs except with an helmet.

Also please add the same old models to the deluxe ver. Please?
***** Thank you! *****

by Racing Lover

Thank you, Rovio! Congratulations! You have returned Bad Piggies to BadPiggies Store from! I am so proud! 8D

But there are still more Classic Games that should return. They are...

- Angry Birds Classic (10th Anniversary / Birthday had come; Add Restore Purchases button)
- Angry Birds Seasons (Update Winter Wonderham with Original Purple Background & Theme Song from Seasons version 3.1.0)
- Angry Birds Space
- Angry Birds Go! (My favorite; & update game to Turbo Edition build)
- Angry Birds Epic (Arena Mode gets stuck due to no more Class Upgrades, by the way)

Please return the above classic Angry Birds apps back to BadPiggies Store soon.

Apps discontinued (but I hope they could return some other way, via compromise with Walt Disney Company):
- Angry Birds Rio
- Angry Birds Star Wars
- Angry Birds Star Wars II

As for what improvements could be implemented for Bad Piggies...

The Bad Piggies Game is pretty fun! Though, I wish you'd update the original Title Screen Theme back.

Also I wish the original longer version of the Level Music is updated to the levels as well, with the exception of Tusk 'til Dawn (this chapter can keep the Shuffle and Spawn Remix) & Road to El Porkado. The new Level twitterMusic is too short.

In addition, the Rovio Logo screen & Bad Piggies startup screen seem to have become blurry, but the rest of the game's graphic seem to work out fine. Can you fix the startup screens to improve their graphics?

by Sunnytron3000

Ok, I’m very happy about the fix just put in place. The road the awl Porkador is fixed, so thanks. BUTTTTT, This update has created problems for me. The pigs on the chapter titles textures are clipping in and out of each other, which is weird and looks very, bad. And this patch also broke the crate system for me, no longer will 3 crates appear each day but it shows no crates at all and just 3 Xs. This MIGHT just be the game getting used to the patch, but if not. Please look into the issue. Thanks for fixing the levers though, I like my games, playable.
