An Angry Birds fans? Want more to enjoy
from this game? Now, the sequel of Angry Birds has been out for you to play
freely, the Bad Piggies, which has
hogged top spot among iOS apps currently. Released from its pen earlier today
for iOS and Android, the Angry Birds sequel is the most-downloaded paid app
among both iPhone and iPad users.
A brand-new game rarely hits the top spot
in Apple's App Store so quickly like Bad Piggies. But being the latest
installment in the hot Angry Birds lineup gives Bad Piggies a strong leg (or
hoof) up. Game maker Rovio has gotten a lot of mileage out of Angry Birds, but
the company also knows it needs to shake up the franchise to keep it from
molting.
Bad Piggies offers a twist on the simple
birds-versus-pigs scenario. The new game places you on the side of the pigs to
help them crack the eggs of the angry birds. Instead of the usual gameplay, Bad
Piggies challenges you with a series of puzzles in which you build devices to
move the pigs to each destination.
Rovio has packaged the pigs in two flavors
-- a standard edition for smartphones and an HD one for tablets.
The iPhone and iPod Touch version costs 99
cents, while the iPad version will set you back $2.99. Both Android versions
are free from Google Play, apparently thanks to a special Google promotion
celebrating 25 billion downloads in less than four years.
Bad Piggies has guzzled up positive reviews
so far, earning a 4.5-star rating from iOS users and a 5-start rating from
Android folks.
Rovio
took its first stab at a new game in July called Amazing Alex. Similar in some
ways to Bad Piggies, Alex challenges you with puzzles to move objects around
the screen. Amazing Alex also climbed its way to the top of the iOS charts not
long after its debut.
