1* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[https://youtu.be/EgAOqt8I5ac The title theme]] is quite the banger.
2* CatharsisFactor: For those who want to see [[RootingForTheEmpire the pigs finally winning against the birds]] after they being popped so many times, this game allows you to do just that.
3* FridgeHorror: One of the minigames is "Find the Skulls", where skulls are hidden all about the maps and unlock levels when located. Not too bad...until you see that some of the skulls have ''helmets and orange moustaches like some of the pigs from the original Angry Birds...''
4* GoodBadBugs:
5** Attaching springs to TNT and then detonating the TNT makes the springs stretch (sometimes much, ''much'' more than usual) and return to normal at rapid rates, along with allowing them to fly across levels, which allows them to tear apart contraptions extremely easily. Here's an example: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=1MT-EQl9n6Q]]. This glitch is referred to as "lightning" by the community.
6** The infamous Tesla Glitch, which was used often in the old days of the game. Simply put, the Tesla Glitch allowed for super fast, compact and lightweight vehicles, by allowing vehicles to be remotely powered by engines mounted separate from the vehicle itself. While the primary methods of the glitch have been patched, alternative, albeit much harder variants to perform the glitch exist, although the addition of alien parts to the game have rendered the glitch mostly obsolete.
7* MemeticMutation: The game's theme song for its sheer catchiness, which has lead to numerous remixes.
8* PopularityPolynomial: The game was released towards the tail end of ''VideoGame/AngryBirds'' popularity, and while critically acclaimed, didn't make much waves online and was still eclipsed by ''Angry Birds''. But coming into TheNewTwenties, the game has received renewed interest (even compared to ''Angry Birds'', which hasn't become as prevalent in online references as ''Bad Piggies'') as the kids who grew up on the game have brought more attention to it via memes and remixes. Almost all of these make use of the game's boppin' theme song. Such works [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkM9GxaCow4 include]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pkhgZgVjmZ4 remixes]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxW1G4SCbbE memes]], and even a ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=totEd_C-J6s mod]]. While it's unclear if this is causing any surge of players in the actual game itself, it's definitely the most appreciation the game has gotten since its release.
9* SequelDifficultySpike: Many people consider this game to be much more difficult than ''VideoGame/AngryBirds'', as some screens are impossible to complete unless you come to a specific realisation. On the other hand, once you get the right idea, it's usually easier to win your stars than it is to win three stars on some of ''Angry Birds''' harder and more luck-dependent screens.
10* ThatOneLevel: The 18th level of "The Road to El Porkado", in this case. There's a loop-de-loop before the goal that you'd normally drive through with ease... but here, you only get a single medium engine that doesn't have enough power to drive through it. The intended solution is to use a box, activated by your searchlight, to push a switch and create a bridge across the gap in the loop, but it's a crapshoot as to whether it'll work, break your machine in a way that still lets your pig get to the finish line, or break your machine and force a restart. Even getting one star is a challenge, but the other two require you to finish within a strict time limit and collect a star box, which you might not be able to do if your pig's machine is broken.
11* UglyCute: Ross the freckled pig! D'aaw.
