One strategy for Piglantis level 2-8 is to send the Blue birds just above the first hollow ice square, clipping the top to do a little damage, and onto the TNT below. You can manage to clear three towers, and perhaps even the pigs in the largest trough. Then use a bird or two to detonate the far-right TNT to finish the level.
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.
one bird. 118630 .pull blue bird back about 45deg, split the bird before the first pig, and get one to clear all towers except the last. the bird should knock tower and fall onto TNT. the lowest bird should hit second tower from left and fall onto TNT.
This strategy is very repeatable… And fun to watch! Thanks @bjango! :)
I got only 100250 with one bird. Not enough for three stars.
But the strategy sounds good and works.
Is it ever!! Your scores, however, may vary.
Nothing like a bland disclaimer in the middle of the night, weh? :-)
great! just got me 3-stars!
Thanks, @bjango.
I thought that I had done quite well on this with two birds (actually, it wasn’t bad–109K), then checked here to see how I compared.
This took a few minutes to figure out the exact shot, but once I did, as Kartflyer says, it’s very repeatable. It’s worth mentioning, though, tht the scores are wildly variable. The first several times I did this, like trishohara said, my scores were low. Eventually, like so many levels in all of the Angry Birds universe, the planets lined up and I got a great score. Not as high as yours, but well above the average.
So far the best I can do is 105900, not feeling the joy like all of you, but will keep at it! :)
Thanks bjango. That strat worked pretty good. Fun to watch all the destruction.
Thanks to @bjango I got the 1-Birder on this level, keep up the good work.
Awesome strat!!! Got above average after only a couple of attempts! Many Thanks
This level is crazy fun! I tried one time with precise shots and was about to call it quits for the night and hit reset for a second try and just flung the first bird and split almost right after he left the sling for a Hail Mary thinking “AS if”..and I couldn’t believe they just all landed perfectly for a sweet one birdie. My score on this was only 108K but it was so easy I had to play some more and actually try this time, lol.
All though this sounds similar to bjango’s method, it’s actually much easier, IMO…I have attached a link with the trajectory that got me 114110 so far and VERY easily repeatable and have got many scores ranging from 111K to 114k+.

The key is to aim bird as if you were aiming for the top stone in second tower. Split shortly after they leave the sling. The goal is simple. The bottom bird should hit the left side of top stone of second tower, the middle should hit the left side of the top wood square with pig in it of middle tower and the top bird should hit the top left side of stone on the very last tower. After the bottom bird hits the stone of second tower he lands on tnt, the middle tower will topple right and the top bird of split which hit the far tower will hit that stone and drop down on tnt. It is much easier then it sounds. The middle bird of the split can pretty much hit anywhere but the key is stopping the bottom and top birds in their tracks by hitting into stone and they drop on the tnt. You should be able to get a one birdie everytime!!!
as @TruckDriver says..disclaimer…scores may vary, lol
Great strategy, and very repeatable. You are right about the top and lowest birds hitting the stones in the 2nd and right most towers. Much better chance of detonating the tnt. Ty and well done, AA!
Thanks Lesley finally got the stars to align with an early split shot and managed 119,480.
I’m in awe of you guys who recon these scores are repeatable. I get a lucky score and try and try again the gods/stars only seem to line up once for me. Only one score below average in piglantis for me now.
Partial Collapse Alert! As I was typing up the above strat my iPad was reset to this level and I saw something moving from the corner of my eye and looked down and part of the middle tower collapsed as well as part of the first and last! The score with out touching a bird was 45310…unfortunately debris was blocking the tnt and I wasn’t able to finish it out with a high score…took two birds to clear it…So far as I am typing this it has not happen again…yet?
@lesleyg — Any idea how long it took? Could have taken a couple of minutes to type strat above?
@mvnla2, Yes it was a definately a couple of minutes into my post while typing that strat. I reset it as I typed the next one and nothing happened. I didn’t reset it and wait after that though so It’s hard to say if it was a fluke or if if someone cares to investigate it may take several minutes before it happens and at the time I didn’t feel like watching the grass grow, lol
Well, it definitely doesn’t happen every time you let it sit for several minutes. I’ve let it sit for at least 15 minutes a couple of times, although that means that the iPad has gone to sleep in the meantime. I did add it to forum on Self-destroying and unstable levels.
116280 so far using the one shot ploy’s described above. I don’t know how someone got 121k!
I can’t really explain. I had been trying to improve my score 110K for a few days without any result until yesterday morning. The strategy I followed was shooting the first bird with a 45 degree angle and splitting just before the first pig. This and a lot of luck gave me the score I guess. I can sent you a screenshot if you want.
here it is
Congratulations @josephine! Anything is possible with Angry Birds. I keep trying for higher and at some point I may get the destruction needed. It just takes that one just right fling of the bird to hit the right spot for a one bird win. You got the blue triplets to work with you with the other waiting birds cheering you on. Kudos!
Thanks GypsyBird! your description is spot on. It’s my first top score so I am really thrilled and didn’t expect it would last longer than 1 day so I made a screenshot of the leaderboard :).
Yesterday the placing of the link to the score screendump failed, this is the second attempt.

I got a one birder for 114710. Thought I was pretty much following the video, but things went wild & when it was over all the pigs were gone.
I was replaying a few levels trying to improve my scores. I had 117k until now. I split the bird immediately after release from the sling. Two birds went between the first and second towers. The third went between the last two towers. There was still some debris left in the middle. Like @DocTonyNYC said, the scores are unpredictable on this level.
Got me a one birdie like many of you here, here is my video to show you how.
@E-Star ty for video..I don’t know what I’m doing wrong..I can’t even match my old score miisingg 10k somewhere? Any idea..following your vid exactly.all piggies w one bird ..
Now idea @Kathy, just that when I know that there are more points in there somewhere, I will keep on flingin till the luck of the Irish is upon me. Sending you some Luck @Kathy, hope it works!
thanks @e-star as usuall. your strategy really helped.
121,020 gonna get top yet ! This one is fun!
