Bad Piggies Sandbox S-1 Walkthrough Guide

Welcome to our guide for Bad Piggies Sandbox Level S-1. This level is unlocked by passing Level 1-12 of Ground Hog Day. After that, you can unlock additional parts and pieces by earning more stars throughout the game. We recorded this video after completing the first episode, and being awarded around 23 items. A key part for our contraption was the red “turbo” engine.

The goal here is to obtain all twenty boxes scattered around the massive level. To do so, we built two contraptions. Our first contraption allowed us to collect 19 boxes in just one run. The second, much smaller, was necessary to collect Star Box #5, which is located above the main path. We’ve included a very large, numbered panorama of the entire level above. Note, this image is HUGE! It will open in a new tab so you can scroll around (in most newer browsers click the image again after it opens to zoom in).

Box 18~20 still can’t do.

For boxes 1-8(except 5), I had a wooded box with a pig, a wooden a wheel, and a green soda above it. The second box had a wooden box with a motor, a small rubber(?) wheel, and a green soda above it. The third box had a wooden box with a tnt box, a big wheel powered by the motor, and a black soda above it. The fourth box had a tnt box with a black soda on top and on the side and a big wheel powered by the motor.

Activate the black soda in between the 2nd and 3rd box. If needed, use the green soda in between the 3rd and 4th box. You should be able to make it to the 6th box before you start falling backwards. use the tnt for a boost and hope you get lucky with the other boxes.

Alternative: Use a 5th box with a fan/blower(?) and move the sodas and wheels around so they all fit. Activate the green soda between the 2nd and 3rd box if needed. Use the green soda between the 3rd and 4th box if you haven’t already used it. Use the black soda when you slow down, usually around the 7th and 8th box. When you start to stop, use the tnt as a final blast. You can probably get up to the 13th box with this strategy.

5: I’m sure there’s a better way, but I put a TNT below and to the left of a pig, and then blew it up on the first incline. He flew over and got it after a few tries.
12: You can just stop powering your wheels (or whatever else) and fall backwards into it.
13: You’ll need some backwards power. The yellow umbrella works well.
16: You simply need to have a height of three blocks on your vehicle. Just stack three metal or wood boxes in front.
18 + 19: Just drive into them.
Finally, 20 is the most annoying. What I did was put a TNT above a pig in front, drove it to the end, and then blew up the TNT, sending the pig down into the box. Getting the TNT to the end requires careful driving.

My preferred method for all but box 5 involves using a very simple cart with varying combinations of soda bottles (I avoid TNT at all costs). Wait until you finish the final GHD level and get the most powerful engine, and then build the cart as follows:

-Three metal boxes filled with the medium engine in the back, the pig in the middle, and the big engine in the front.
-Powered wheel on the front and wooden wheel in the back.
-Yellow umbrella on the front and fan on the back.

This is pretty easy to drive and is easily powerful enough to climb all of the hills. Then:

-Attach a soda bottle (cap pointing forwards) to the top of the front box. Fire it to roll the cart backward into box 1. Then restart the level and start driving to get almost all of the remaining boxes. For box 12, just let the cart roll backwards into the hole. For box 13, shut off the machinery and let the cart coast down the hill after 12 and up the hill where 14 is, and then fire the soda bottle when it rolls back onto level ground. This should get it over the little hill and into the gap to get the box. Then continue driving to get boxes 14-19.
-Now you should have only boxes 5 and 20 left. For box 20, attach soda bottles to the top of the front and middle boxes and point the caps upward. Just drive straight to the end of the level, but as the cart climbs the final hill, cut the power and fire the bottles, This should push the cart over the crest and into box 20.

It’s possible to build a flying machine to get box 5, but it’s very difficult to operate. Otherwise, the TNT is probably the best option.

Interesting contraption @abhijit.
I just posted the walkthrough above.
I managed to collect 19 stars in just one run, but without the “copter” part. The fifth being out of reach, I chose the tnt.
I’m sure that combining both contraption (yours and mine), a 20-star run is possible.

Note: The recording above was made after finishing episode 1, and not playing episode 2 at all.

For people don’t have the turbo engine, you can use this:
1. Wooden box with propeller in front, green soda on top, and a wheel on the bottom. Pig inside box. 3 balloons on top
2. Wooden box with black soda on top and a green soda on the bottom. 2 balloons on top.
3. Wooden box with large wheel and a black soda on top. 1 balloon on top.
4. Wooden box with green engine. large wheel, blower on the side, and black soda on the top. 3 balloons on the top.

Towards the end all of your balloons will pop. This will require you to use your sodas. Use the black soda for the last hill and the green sodas for the last 2 boxes.

For the fifth box replace the one balloon with 2 balloons. Pop all of the balloons when you are close to the box.

The first sandbox is the only one I’m finding a challenge. Breezed through all the others without any real effort required. I only really needed one vehicle design to complete them all, couple of slight variations for a handful of stars..

By AngryBirdsFanIndonesia

All your strategies was too long. Just Make This okay…. place this contraption on the outer side and upper sides.

Column 1: Empty, 2 baloons, 2 baloons, Empty.
Column 2: Bellow, Metal Box with the biggest machine, Metal Box with pig, Bellow.
Column 3: Empty, Fan, Fan, Empty

Simple but effective! I have tried on all sandbox levels and it did worked ( Except find the skulls ). Happy trying!

Remember you need fast clicks and controlling for my contraption above!

I myself built an incredible vehicle, not using any of the extra stuffs, and successfully grabbed 18 of the stars.

http://db.tt/M38F9rQR

Uh, after my testing I found that even the soda bottles are not necessary.
You need one only when you are grabbing the 1st star.
Then, the 12th and 13th are very tricky. In a specific moment, you simply turn off the motor and you get the 12th. A TNT is needed and auto-exploded where the 13th is(Put it at the right down edge).

I am not certain if the configuration was exactly right, since I accidentally hit the “Trash can” icon. QAQ

For sandboxes I like to create enormous clumsy contraptions. I was taking my time with the normal levels so didn’t have most of the helicopter parts when I played Sandbox S-1 so I created a hybrid all terrain / air cushion vehicle. It is slow but the fun was driving (and half hovering) the thing all over the map.

For the few stars in the air I later created a simple autogyro to sweep up the remainder. I saw this as a mainly ground vehicle map and even a motorcycle can get most of the ground stars in one run. A small vehicle saves a lot of time if you’re in a hurry (which I am typically not in sandbox play)

The Sportster bike is awesome. Finally got the last star…it just climbed right up and got it.

I made one w/o the rocket, and got it first time, even though it broke halfway through. I used the front half (with the engine dragging) to keep punting piggy all the way to the end. Hilarious, but it works.

No. 5: Do the one for 1-i and explode the tnt on the top of the third hill. The pig’s box will land before it and the pig will crash on the left of the box and roll to the star.

By Corey

I think #5 was the hardest at least I got it with my helicopter first line up 2 metal boxes horizontally a large heli copter piece put it on top then you need 2 small helicopter pieces and put it on the top box and there you have it your very own helicopter

5&13 must be hard so I tried it I tried it 60 times now I want those two boxes NOWNOWNOWWW!!!
