Introduction

Bad Piggies is a spin-off of Angry Birds that aligns itself in the same trial-and-error physics puzzle genre. The object of each level is to build a make-shift vehicle from seemingly random parts to transport a green pig to the finish line under the influence of realistic physics. As always, earning three stars on some of the game's levels will be required, as well as completing various tasks and requirements. Currently the game is listed as FREE in the Windows Phone Store.

 

Step 1: Complete Level 2-1

Load up Level 2-1 in the Rise and Swine episode and complete it. This will unlock dessert collectibles in all levels which are needed for the 4 achievements related two power-ups. See "Magnet Master" for more information on these achievements.

Step 2: Earn 3 stars on all levels of Episodes 1, 3 and 5

Play through and complete all levels of Episodes 1 (Ground Hog Day), 3 (When Pigs Fly), and 5 (Tusk Til Dawn), making sure to earn 3 stars on each level. Use video guides to speed up this process. Along the way, you will likely obtain most of the games other miscellaneous achievements. See the "Ham Helsing" achievement for links to video guides. Don't fear, nothing is truly missable. Episodes 2 and 4, as well as the Sandbox levels, do not need to be played for any achievements.

 

Step 3: Mop-up

After earning all your stars, you may have a few achievements left. Mop up any remaining ones, following the specific descriptions in the guide below. You will probably need to gather the hidden skull collectibles for the "Discoverer" achievement or complete the very short grind for the "Hogffeur" achievement. Finally, you can cash in your cakes to King Pig to get power-ups for those specific achievements.

 

Conclusion

Bad Piggies is one of the easier Rovio games to complete, since it thankfully it does not have any truly painful grinding achievements. You will however have to complete numerous levels with 3 stars, though there are only 120 of them. Depending on your Angry Birds skill, you should be on your way to completing this game in 12 to 18 hours following this guide.

 

CONNECTIVITY WARNING: Make sure that when you boot up the game and reach the title screen that the "Achievements" and "Leaderboards" buttons are not greyed out. If they are, you are not properly connected to Xbox Live. They need to be bright green. If they are grey, exit the game and keep reloading until it works. Check your network connection if necessary. This will help prevent achievement glitches.

Gain 3 stars from all blue levels in Episode 3

 

These achievements require that you obtain three stars in all of the blue levels of Episode 1 and 3. Blue levels are bonus levels that unlock by obtaining stars in the regular (green) levels of these episodes. The number of required stars is shown beforehand, and must be earned from the green levels in the same row as the blue level you want to unlock. See "Ham Helsing" for more information about earning stars and for links to video guides for the blue levels.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3261/18.jpg Sweet Nightmares - 10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Complete Episode 5

 

These achievements require that you complete all regular (green) levels of Episode 1 (Ground Hog Day), Episode 3 (When Pigs Fly), and Episode 5 (Tusk Til Dawn). These episodes have 36, 36, and 24 levels, respectively, for a total of 96 levels. In order to "complete" a level, you must build a contraption that successfully gets the small green pig to the finish line, earning a single gold star. You do not have to meet any other requirements. As long as the pig reaches the finish, the level is complete. However, other achievements in the game require that you earn three stars on all of these levels, so make sure you are doing that as well if you are going for the completion.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3261/19.jpg Ham Helsing - 10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Complete Episode 5 with 3 stars on all levels

 

These achievements require that you earn 3 stars on all levels of Episode 1 (Ground Hog Day), Episode 3 (When Pigs Fly), and Episode 5 (Tusk Til Dawn). This includes both the green levels, and the special blue levels (in Episodes 1 and 3) and the pink levels (in Episode 5). Stars in this game are a bit different than Angry Birds. One star is earned for completing the level. To "complete" a level, you simply must get the small green pig to the finishing area (and in some cases, the pig + another object). There are no other requirements. The pig can be outside the vehicle, you can take as long as you like and pick any path of your choosing. As long as the pig makes it, the level is complete, earning one star. The second and third stars are related to completing secondary objectives. These stars can be earned SEPARATELY (i.e. do not have to be done in the same run of the level). Secondary objectives often range from completing the level within a given time limit, gathering collectibles before reaching the finish, reaching the finish without breaking any part of your vehicle, or completing the level without using specific vehicle parts. These objectives are often challenging and will generally require some creativity. This will be the hardest part of the game. However, with a little trial-and-error, the levels should not be too troublesome. To reduce the completion time, you should use three-star video guides for each level. Even following these guides, there may be a few levels that seem impossible. Keep trying. There is a bit of randomness to the outcome of identical actions. If you are following a video and cant get it, try searching YouTube for an alternate approach. Links to good video guides are given below (thanks to WikiGameGuides.com).

MISCELLANEOUS ACHIEVEMENTS (12 for 110 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png)

The following 12 achievements are obtained by completing miscellaneous tasks within the game. They do not require any specific level. The cumulative achievements count progress across all plays and replays of all levels in the game. Unfortunately, there is no way to check your progress towards any of these.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3261/7.jpg Junior Wrecker - 10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Break off 1000 parts

 

This achievement requires that you break off a cumulative total of 1000 parts. Parts are any objects that you can attach to the square frame pieces of your vehicle. These include bellows, umbrellas, bottles, wheels, and more. You will reach 1000 parts broken with natural progression through the game while trying to earn all your stars, so don't worry about this one.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3261/8.jpg Hogffeur - 10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Transport King Pig successfully 50 times

 

This achievement requires that you successfully transport King Pig to the finish line a cumulative total of 50 times. King Pig is the huge pig that shows up as a secondary objective in certain levels. This achievement will not come with natural progression, so you can grind it out whenever you choose. Just load up Level 1-25. Create the vehicle shown below to transport the King Pig to the finish line. Repeat until the achievement unlocks.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3261/9.jpg Complex Complex - 10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Start a transport with 25 or more parts

 

This achievement requires that you build a vehicle that contains a total of 25 parts. Every single item that you drag up into the contraption counts, as long they are all connected to one another. Once you get 25 parts conglomerated, push the blue check-mark button to start the level, popping this achievement (if all your pieces are not connected right, the check-mark button will not be present). Only certain levels within the game have 25 parts available and have grid-space to place them. The first level you will come across is Level 1-VII. You can also unlock this achievement in the first Sandbox level (Level S-1) once you unlock enough parts by earning around 30 stars in the game. See the image below for an example contraption containing at least 32 parts.

Finish 50 levels without breaking anything

 

This achievement requires that you complete a cumulative total of 50 levels without breaking anything on your vehicle. It can be the same level 50 times (i.e. does not need to be 50 unique levels). This will more than likely unlock while you are progressing through the game earning stars. However, if you want to grind this, load up Level 1-2 and create the vehicle shown below. Start the level, use the bellows once, and then let gravity take the vehicle unscathed to the finish line. Reload and repeat until the achievement unlocks.

Pop 100 balloons

 

This achievement requires that you pop a cumulative total of 100 balloons. Balloons do not start appearing until Episode 3. You will surely pop more than 100 while attempting to earn 3-stars in all of Episode 3. To knock this out quick, choose a level with a few balloons. Place them, start the level. pop them quickly, then rinse and repeat.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3261/12.jpg Tourist I - 10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Travel 1000 miles in a transport

 

This achievement requires that you travel 1000 miles in a transport. Though 1000 miles may sound like a lot, this will be one of your first achievements, unlocking before you complete Episode 1 with no effort on your part. Just keep creating vehicles and using them to complete the levels.

 

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3261/13.jpg Discoverer - 10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Discover 20 explorer remains

 

This achievement requires that you collect 20 unique explorer remains. Explorer remains are skulls that are hidden within some of the levels in the game. There are a total of 45 skulls in the game. However, of the episodes that you are required to play, there are only 25 (10 in Episode 1, 10 in Episode 3, and 5 in Episode 5). See THIS listing for links to video walkthroughs for each skull (thanks to Angry Birds Nest). As soon as you collect a skull, it is automatically saved and will disappear forever. You can exit to the level-selection screen immediately.

http://www.xboxachievements.com/images/achievements/3261/17.jpg Magnet Master - 10 http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png

Use a Super Magnet to collect all cakes and a starbox in 1 run

 

These achievements require that you use each of the specified power-ups one time, and for "Magnet Master," in a specific way. Power-ups can be obtained two ways. First, you can purchase them for real money (not recommended). Secondly, you can cash in collected sweet treats to the King Pig. In order to get dessert collectibles to appear in each level, you need to complete Level 2-1. Once you do this, most of the levels in all episodes will have up to three desserts to collect. Do not worry about going out of your way for them; simply earning three stars on each level will gather more than enough. To cash in the treats, from the level-selection screen, tap the crown button in the bottom right. In the next screen, you can drag your collected treats up to feed King Pig. In the process, he will randomly award you power-ups for every few that you feed him.

 

Once you have the power-ups, load up Level 1-1. While arranging parts to build your vehicle, tap the lightning icon in the bottom left. Use the Super Glue power-up (yellow tube of glue) to make your vehicle nearly unbreakable and unlock the "Indestructible" achievement. Use the Turbo Charge power-up (snail-like object with green fan) to get double the engine power and unlock the "Super Charged" achievement (can only be used when you have an engine installed in your vehicle). Use the Super Mechanic power-up (gold coin with wrenches on it) to automatically build a 3-star vehicle and unlock the "Chips for Whips" achievement. Finally, use the Super Magnet power-up (red magnet). Now, either use the vehicle created by the mechanic, or build the one shown below. Start the level and let gravity take you to the finish line. You will collect all of the cakes and the star crate on the way. When you reach the finish, "Magnet Master" will unlock.

Checked the credits

 

This achievement requires that you view the credits. To view the credits, from the Main Menu, tap the gear-shaped icon on the bottom left. Then choose the button with the lowercase "i" to view the credits. The achievement will pop immediately.

Great guide -- appreciate all the video links.

 

There are some level guides that just didn't work for me. Personally, I struggled with any that relied on the vehicle breaking apart just so in order to work correctly. A lot of these were in the Tusk Til Dawn world. In that case, try searching for another guide for that level or tweaking things a bit.

Finally had time to check out the DLC over Winter break. In case anyone's in the same boat as I am, pretty much any Little Pig Adventure guide online will help you get the 40 star boxes. I'm using this one.

 

The only two achievements you won't automatically get while seeking out the 40 star boxes are:

 

Full Reverse: You get the reverse control in the star box to the right of the starting point. Put it in your vehicle and flip it once to unlock.

 

Pigfall: The pit in question here doesn't have a star box in it, so you won't get it while finding the 40 star boxes. Look for the bridge in the lower-right of the stage, break it and fall through. TNT will work, but I personally don't like trying to fly precisely that far without bumping into anything with TNT. I used a plunger gun pointed down and to the right and shot it under the bridge to force the bridge to break. (The above video uses that solution early in the video for a different bridge.)
