** FridgeHorror potential in the trailer: it shows the King Pig as much older and the scenery has been reduced to rubble, implying that all the birds, and many of the pigs, were wiped out in a massive war with the pigs.

In the ExcusePlot, an innocent freckled pig inadvertently shreds the pigs' plan to steal the birds' eggs and is sent by the King Pig to retrieve all the pieces. This leads to a PuzzleGame in which you have to guide your pig, across a screen full of obstacles after building a vehicle appropriate to the screen's specific challenges. Like ''Angry Birds'', there are three stars available for each screen, but while one is always achieved simply by winning, the other two are achievements based on beating the screen with specific challenges:

The long-rumoured POVSequel to ''VideoGame/AngryBirds'' finally came out in September 2012 for iOS and Android pads (but not phones since it's too complicated for them).

In this PuzzleGame, you have to guide your pig, [[EscortMission and sometimes the King Pig]], across a screen full of obstacles after building a vehicle appropriate to the screen's specific challenges. ''Angry Birds'' was simply about getting as high a destruction score as possible. ''Bad Piggies'' has three stars available for each screen, but while one is always achieved simply by winning, the other two are achievements based on beating the screen with specific challenges: a {{Speedrun}}, winning the screen with [[NoDamageRun no damage to your vehicle]], [[SelfImposedChallenge winning the screen without using a specific component]]...

* CatapultToGlory: Some screens can be won simply by sitting your pig on a box of explosives and hitting the detonate button.
* CoolCar / CoolPlane: You have to build these in many screens.



* FollowTheMoney: Most levels have star-boxes you need to collect to get one or more of the stars.
* LuckBasedMission: The physics engine is not 100% replicable, so sometimes whether you win a screen or not depends on which way the pig bounces.
* MadeOfIron: Your pig can take a hell of a lot of punishment and still win the screen, as long as he gets to the finish marker.
* {{Speedrun}}: Some screens require you to complete the run within a time limit to get a star.

* WideOpenSandbox: The appropriately named "Sand Box" level does have some stars to collect in its individual screens, but is mostly designed to let you build crazy vehicles and practice driving/flying them around.
