Rovio launches Bad Piggies for Android, iOS, Mac platforms

Rovio has launched its new game Bad Piggies for Android, iOS and Mac platforms. Available now in Google Play, iOS App Store and Mac App Store, the game is free for Android users, while others will have to pay from $0.99 to $4.99, NDTV reports.

Slightly similar to Rovio's previous title Amazing Alex, Bad Piggies also involves tasks like building vehicles to help transport Piggies to safety. According to Rovio, the title will be available soon on Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8.

"We've never done anything like this," said Petri Jarvilehto, EVP of Games. "Where Angry Birds was all about destruction, Bad Piggies is all about the joy of construction. It's not just about getting three stars in this game, failing is almost as much fun as succeeding!"

Set on Piggy Island, Bad Piggies are after the eggs again. There are over 60 levels, with more coming via free updates. Players can also unlock an additional 30 levels by getting three stars.

This is the first time the Bad Piggies are protagonists of the game, but according to the company, it's just the beginning of a series of Bad Piggies related games.
