Bad Piggies Gameplay Details Revealed

Rovio has revealed the first gameplay details for Bad Piggies, the new Angry Birds spinoff coming next week. In Bad Piggies, you’ll be playing as the pigs, and the slingshot mechanic of Angry Birds doesn’t return. Instead, players will use a grid-based building system to create vehicles for the pigs, which can then be moved around the environment. Vehicles range from flying machines to cars, and players will follow the same scoring mechanic as Angry Birds, aiming to earn the highest score to get three stars in each level.

Players will drag and drop vehicle parts in a “blueprint” mode as they create their ride in a mechanic that seems reminiscent of Rare’s Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts.

"As far as the gameplay goes, Bad Piggies and Angry Birds are complete opposites," Rovio executive vice president of games Petri Järvilehto told Yahoo Games. "Angry Birds smash things up, Bad Piggies build stuff. The pigs are all about making plans and building things, even -- and especially -- when they don't work!"

As announced last month, Bad Piggies will be released on September 27th for iOS and Android, with Windows Phone and PC versions to follow. Keep an eye on Bad Piggies’ official site for more details, and check back to IGN later this month for our impressions and review.
