One strategy for Piglantis level 1-15 is to fire the Yellow bird through the vertical wooden blocks just immediately under the Helmet Pig. Send the White bird straight ahead, trying to get as close to the pillar as possible (which isn’t too close, but that’s the direction). If necessary, clean up with Terence the Wrecking Ball!
If you have a different strategy feel free to leave a comment below; however, don't just post your score via the comments, as that's what the leaderboards are for.
116k-117k
1st Yellow- To the two horizontal stone blocks and should lad the TNT near the protruding vertical wooden block)above the shell).
2nd White- To the horizontal stone block present on the left side(below the helmet pig). You should land White inside the incomplete square.
3rd Terence- If required, aim for debris where present most.
This strategy gave me results farther than I expected! Thanks @iammighty!
@kartflyer C’mon! Get that highscore ;)
Copy that! I was shocked!
This is a good strategy – it worked for me too. I suppose you mean to send the first bird to the two *vertical* stone blocks on the top right side (not horizontal). This worked well, the TNT fell, and the right side was gone. Then I blew the shot with the white bird (as it often happens, I tapped the screen too late, and it did not drop the egg). But instead of restarting the level, I decided to continue and sent the big red to the place where the white was supposed to explode the egg. Wow – the big brother did an amazing job, everything was destroyed and drowned, and I got 123,590.
I assumed “vertical,” too.
OK, a couple run throughs, and now I see where this is going. Yellow needs to hit those vertical blocks HARD to make the TNT fall down to the bottom, where the damage done is spectacular.
Where I normally make my mistake is in trying to get the WB to get over the top to the right side of whats left, so that I can drop the bomb on the pillar. It never seems to work, but that hasn’t stopped me from trying it. I guess I find that exposed part of the structure a target too juicy to ignore. One of these days I suppose I’ll learn! (Yeah, who am I kidding??)
Thanks @iammighty and @annach! Based on @iammighty‘s strategy,, I aimed YB at the two vertical stone walls, so that the TNT landed at the bottom, taking out the right side. But then I used WB egg to destroy the chest and submerged structure (aimed the egg just to the right of the right wall of the structure, taking out the chest and the structure) as I had noticed my score was higher when these two items were destroyed. Then finally, used Terence as @annach did, and took out the rest.
Thank you iamMighty! A few details that I found useful:
YB need to hit the top of the vertical stone planks to the right of the mustached pig. Right side should be largely destroyed.
WB — Aim at the incomplete square of wood below the helmeted pig; release egg late; doesn’t matter too much if you don’t get this right.
Big red — As others have said, aim at square below where helmeted pig is (was).
I am so confused as to what everyone has said about the “incomplete square of wood” is. Can someone elaborate?
Besides that, I got the strategy to work perfectly. It seems that Terence can easily clean up the entire level if you mess up the White Bird. I got 119,800
Wow! Great strat @iammighty and thank you. I came here to post my “slightly above average” score using a simialr strat as Slim’s and saw all the post about your Awesome strat and improved to 121780 so far.
What a fun level ;-)
It worked perfectly! First bird cleared out the whole right side and then I had a Great shot with WB having him come in low and right at that little piece of stone sticking out that you mentioned and he took out the whole left side. It was a beautiful thing. Then Terence at a stone plank that was left slanted at the very bottom. Thanks again ;-)
This completes my first half of Piglantis!!! I have above average so far in all levels except level one which I need 1000 more points to get above average which seems to keep creaping up,lol. I’m loving Piglantis so far, Fun Stuff ;-)
Apparently, we’re on the same schedule! I just finished the first half today, and went back to improve my score on the one level where I was below average (1-12 was killing me until, out of nowhere, it finally worked).
I don’t think it’s ever taken me so long to complete 15 levels, but for the most part I stuck with each level until I was happy with my score. Nevertheless, with the exception of a few levels that irritate me, I think Piglantis is awesome.
Thank you @doctonynyc for making my strat more clear and welcome all. Now to make this strat atleast useful for me.
LOL, @iammighty. Don’t you hate it when you post a strategy and everyone gets higher scores than you? It’s happened to me many times! As you know, destruction varies widely with your approach. You’ll surpass all of us in no time!
Aside from the “vertical”/”horizontal” issue (and we all make mistakes like that from time to time), I thought your explanation was perfectly clear!
@iammighty thanks! You are mighty! :)
Well that’s not a problem here:( I.finally got both shots..which I thought perfectly..
and only got 90k…argggggg!!!! been trying for 2 days..can’t even get 3 stars…video method not helping either:( :( boo hoo Whineeeeeee
Keep at it, @kathy, you it this is one of those levels where scores vary considerably. While having a lot of damage (preferably the low pillar falling over) is important from the YB, the precision of the WB is also critical.
Thanks @DocTonyNYC its very frustrating to know higher score is possible ..but I can’t seem to achieve it..gonna. move on ..I got 3 stars anyway. I got spin back through..lots of under average. scores here..I think its harder than space!! oh well I’m not bored anymore ;)
TY! Make sure to use all 3 birds and aim Terrence low on the remaining part of the left tower; lot’s of extra points to be had.
122970
Okay I just wanted to try to clarify as I had a hard time following along.
1 YB lob to the far top two vertical stone planks. I find hiting the small vertical wood plak just before it slows it down just enough to…
2 knock the TNT so that it trickles down and explodes on the right bottom horizontal wood plank just above the seashell on the last right pillar. This can completely clear the right side but not always.
3 wb just over the first vertical wooden plank sticking out of the water, dropping the egg olose the the wall and ontop of the chest. Deflated WB body carooms into the structure causing more damage but hopefuly not killing the last two or three pigs.
4Terrence low into the remainiing left structure hopefully hitting just above the sumerged wooden steps and hitting the horizontal stone plank or pillar careening through the remaining debris.
hope that helps and great stat IamMighty!
Thanks guys. Swelld and others. Slowed down yellow bird and got more destruction on right hand side. White bird took out chest and little else. Big red took out left structure by aiming low.

As I was taking the first shot that iamMighty describes above, I noticed that the TNT was already falling. Sure enough, I reset and restarted a few times and it happened three times in twenty. I’m surprised that no one has mentioned this yet.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem to do much damage. In order to get the damage from the first show in iamMighty’s strategy, I think you need to push a bit more over with the bird.
At any rate, for what it is worth, here is screenshot:

(Notice minimal damage, but the TNT is gone.)

It’s weird, since I posted this, I’ve continued to pay this level to improve my score. I haven’t see it happen again. It’s obviously much rarer than I thought.
I also noticed it, but only once, and I wasn’t sure what exactly happend. I already released the first bird when part of the right side started to fall on its own, so I wasn’t able to take advantage of this. Then I restarted the level a few times, but it did not happen again. May be, it only happens after the slingshot is pulled back. I am not sure. I guess one could use this self-destruction, but not with iamMighty’s strategy. If it happens while sending the first bird to the left side as on video, there may be a chance to one-bird this level.
Like I said, I got it two happen two more times within a few minutes (including the time that I got the screen shot). The last two times i hadn’t pulled back on the slingshot.
I’m glad to know others have seen this, too. It’s worth mentioning that it doesn’t happen instantly. The structure bounces a bit at the start, and then it slowly falls. All of this happens in the first 30-50 seconds (read: don’t sit around waiting for several minutes).
I’m wondering if I was just impatient to finish my last level for the day. I will probably return to this another day to see what it does.
Even if the TNT falls before firing the bird, no damage is worth mentioning. Better to fire the bird.
Yep, I believe I said that above.
Hi all,
Hey Doc I have had the TNT fall on 1-15 as well.
I was lining up the yellow bird to hit the vertical planks and away it went,
got such a shock i hit reset. haven’t had it happen again.
I made a plea over the weekend on 2-15, and now I’m bringing it here in the hopes that one of the high scorers might be willing to share their secrets.
I’ve spent a lot of time on this level trying to figure out that subtleties of the the level. @steely59 suggests using Terence, even if there are no pigs left. Conditionally, I agree with that–if, and only if, there is a considerable amount of debris that you can get with Terence (often, especially if you get a good collapse on the right, the debris is spread across the floor of the “sea”).
I’m not questioning any of the high scores, but I would really appreciate knowing how they were achieved.
Please. . .
I got 123k with hitting the vertical blocks with yellow. That triggered the TNT, and kind of cleaned the right side.
Then I used white for destroying the little structure in water. Then Terence very low against the main structure.
Thanks, @trishohara. I got my 125K using the method described by IamMighty, but hadn’t thought about that little structure. (I believe I did it it’s two birds, but depending on where debris was it may have been three–I have had scores in 120s both ways).
Thanks for the tip! I think I will play around with that idea!
You’re welcome @doctonynyc. Maybe with that scores above 130k are possible.
Good luck and happy flinging!
Great Strat @trishohara! I improved my score on this level by 6k! Thanks so much.
That’s precisely how I had 139K with 3 birds, first to the back (47K). White bird to the front low (12K mostly for points, make sure it doesn’t hit the last step as it ruins the third shot) and Terence to the bottom horizontal stone above the bottom pillar.
Thanks Trish, nice strat. Took me about forever but I finally got a decent score on this level…
@thrishohara… did the same thing :) It always amazes me how active you all have become in the last couple of months and almost every time I go here and post my strats, there is one addict (in this case you) that has done the same, I just love it! there are minds like me out there ;)
Here is my video. Not the 130k you where hoping for, but 125400.
@trishohara thanks for sharing the wealth!!!! ;) My dear friend you are in GREAT company in this thread!!! *Applause* :D. CHEERS!!!!!
I finally set aside some time to come back to this level. I have to be honest that I was skeptical that this would work well. I had tested the white bird many times on the underwater structure, and I never got more than 11K (and that was rare, usually it was well below 10K). What I wasn’t taking into consideration (and this will make me sound like a total rookie at ths game) is just how much damage Terence can actually do to the main structure.
Below, @moonsabre points out the spot to hit. There is a definite “sweet spot” on this shot. Once you hit it, the stone plank breaks, the underwater pillar shatters, and the damage is incredible.
Thanks to everyone who shared this tip!
Please accept my thanks too, @trishohara! Increased my score 13k. :-)
you’re very welcome! Glad that I can give something back to this great community
This is one of those episodes that will not behave as on the video, at least not mine, for some weird reason, White Bird keeps misfiring and messing up the finale, maybe tomorrow.
