‘Bad Piggies’ Goes Free In App Of The Week Promotion

TouchArcade Rating:

451786_larger1-150x150RED ALERT: Bad Piggies (Free) is Apple’s App of The Week. As such, it’s now available at the price of free instead of not-free (or 99¢, if you’re keeping track at home).

You’ll want to grab this one, too. It’s an imaginative puzzle platform game that tasks users with building fantastical machines and navigating them through a physics-enabled world to an end goal. The catch is that there’s tons of obstacles around, and machines need the right parts and the construction to get past them.

We gave Bad Piggies a big old five stars, which is a really good score. It’s a treat to play. The mechanics are solid and the level design does a fantastic job of enticing you to build increasingly whackier contraptions. Give our review a read if you’d like — or just download the game since it’s, you know, free.

      I would just troll who I was playing with

    2. CrispyCreamed

      Nice! This is hitting me with some Eliminate Pro vibes. Count me in. Looks awesome.

    3. Louis Ace

      This is a great idea! I wonder if other big name developers like Gameloft might include this in their Modern Combat, or N.O.V.A. games.

        I wish

        One of thing I really liked about nova 2 was Bluetooth multiplayer. Made car trips more fun.

        1. inf3rn0

          Dude, IKR? Holy crap, when NOVA 3 took this out, I was pretty pissed.

      Ow much will it be and is it for iPod touch?
      I sure do hope so. Bc it looks way awesome and iv always wanted the split screen support.

      1. JohnnyJ301

        If this was for iPod touch, how would you even see the screen? Seriously you may as well thumb wrestle.

    5. SmackDatButt

      Pretty innovative as far as iOS accessibility goes, great for those long car trips cross-country with your siblings :)

    6. julian.bean

      Broken ipads lol But seriously this is an interesting idea! Plus Crescent Moon is my favourite developer for IOS so go team CM!!!!

    7. hourglass

      Sounds good to me. I hope it has a decent single player campaign.

    8. Tim Chaten

      Yea - I thought we were done with half screens and quartered screens ... sometimes you really should just get something from Nintendo, Sony or Microsoft ...

    9. JohnnyJ301

      Looks like all thumbs to me.

    10. Lostpop21

      My eliminate pro itch has not been wet for years till now...

    11. BJorn_LuLszic

      PERFECT! "Smash the iPad on yo face" game when you lose.

    12. Wizard_Mike

      I can imagine the countless "oops" moments when a player notices he's about to get killed and yanks the ipad a little to fudge his opponents shot, lol.

    13. ImJPaul

      Sharing iPads? Savages.

      In all seriousness, that's got bad news written all over it. FPS' make you angry when you die. When you get angry you have a fit. When you have a fit you flail your arms about. When you flail your arms about you throw your friends $800 iPad. When you throw your friends $800 iPad you owe him $800. Don't share iPads. Get your own.

      1. daftman

        Or you might have an anger problem...

    14. TriploSix

      Wooowwww❗❗❗🔝

    15. Kaioh1990

      Oh my God!!! This is reminding me of Eliminate Pro! I can't wait for this!

    16. Protoman

      My friends don't get to touch my iPad, ever. So this is sort of a moot point. The thought of someone's grubby hands on my precious, is horrible. lmao

    17. Thor Sarup

      Actually this one-device multiplayer is a very old (but still great) idea. I remember seeing that for Micro Machines for the first Game Boy :)

    18. doubleAAron

      Visuals remind me a bit of Atari's old Xybots arcade game. Loved that game. It was cooperative two player in the arcades and had some novel controls as a behind the back 3D maze shooter in 1987.
