Big Setup level 11-14 is pretty challenging. Our strategy is to loft the Boomerang bird over the main structure, spinning it to break the last two horizontal planks within the fortress. Launch the first Big Brother into the stone triangle, popping all pigs on the left side. Clean up the debris with the last Big Brother. The score in the video below is 94,450.
Version 2022:
i smashed the boomerang backwards into the left most tower. Big brother birds clear the main structure. Higher score if manage to clear some hollow stone blocks at the bottom. 96490 but can get higher.
1. boomerang backwards just below left most pig. should kill the 2 left most pigs.
2. big brother at bottom left vertical wood plank. should destroy half the main structure.
3. big brother to clear the rest
Nicely written strategy danielnky, easy to repeat! I was able to similar scores with just two birds or three. :)
Indeed, thanks danielnky! :)
Very repeatable indeed! Great strategy! Thanks!
@danielnky : Brilliant! 96610 (leaderboard update to come. :) )
This is a bir tricky, because you have to time it so boomerang passes under big brother om the slingshot.
Awesome 109810 using backwards boomerang strat
You can also 3 star this level by just going forward,but is kind of tough to 3 star.Boomerang Bird clears the first structure in the front.The first Big Brother Bird clears half the second structure.Second and final Big Brother Bird clears the rest of the structure,although you get a lower score of around 92,990.
1st bird backward, make sure it breaks the bottom left wall next to the fruits. (just killing the pigs makes 100k+ almost impossible)
2nd bird clean as much of the fruits and the wall next to mr. Moustache.
3rd bird bounce trough mr. Moustache and up to the rightmost 2 pigs.
I have problems with backwards boomerang shots – I always hit my next bird.
So I just throw it straight into the left wall, then use both BB to destroy as much as possible.
Maybe a few less points – but a lot easier for those of us who are directionally challenged.
:-)
@miskatonic_ I also had that trouble..lol very frustrating ..I’ve found if I aim slightly down so that his return comes over the bird loading on slingshot it helps..just have to adjust angle accordinlgly..I hate that bird..just for the record..nice score ty for the head on tip:)
On this level, I get better and more consistent results if the bird loops down, not up. I pull straight back, release, and very quickly tap. Doing it this way, I almost always break through the wall next to the fruit.
Thanks for the strat @z0z0, couldn’t get the huge score you did but I was able to break 100k with your help!! Yeay :)
@Kimmiecv HELP!! I need a double whinee for this one..I really want to get through tonight so I can go back for average…Wwhhiijinnnnneeee….I can’t get second shot….whiiinneee factor invoked …
Aack!! I’m jumping in with a Whiiiinnnee for @Kathy let the birds play for mighty high points!!! Go Kathy gooooo…….
Finally above average ..not as good as everyone ..but good enough ;)
Ty @Kimmiecv for the whining help:)
Awesome @Kathy I knew if you just kept at it you’d do just fine!! It took me Hours to get above avg! I felt your pain :(. And now your elation at being able to move on!! ;D
used that strategy to get 109,010 (more possible). to get to such scores with this strategy it is essential that the third bird bounces (doesn’t end up in the pit, on the bottom right), and moreover bounces high to come out of the pit and take out the rightmost structure. for this to happen i think it is sufficient (and necessary) that the bottom right of the pit is easily accessible by the third; this can be achieved by various combinations of shots for the first two the ones described being one possibility.
Thanks for sharing your strategy.
many thx to @z0z0 for great strat.
here my video with 103k:

First two birds like the video. On the third launch a lower aim for the final Big Brother to take out as much of the hollow blocks on the bottom when going after the 1 or 2 pigs on the right side.
Another option on the third launch, is to bounce BB off the far right pig and take out the two right triangles and wood structures.
Gained 7k in points.
You just never know what’s going to work with this game do you? I like using the Remi/Backwards Boomerang shot but was getting nowhere fast with that method on this level so I went back to the standard approach/Slim’s video and improved my score by 5,600 points! :)
You are soo right @Chicadee you just Never know ..seems this one the better I do the less points I get..scratching my head LOL …the reverse remi seems to work o.k. but..I don’t know ..what’s going on ..good lucky going forward..may the forces of bird kingdom be with you;)
I know this sounds crazy, but I did it differently. Instead of sending boomerang bird into the left tower, I actually attacked the right side of the main structure, aiming for the corner gap between the mustached pig and the one to the right. That took out the right side four pigs. My Big Brother I shot straight into the side of the left helmet pig and it went all the way through to the bottom of the section with the fruit in it. Two birds, 100,980 points!
I followed the video and missed with the boomerang bird only taking out the 2 topmost right pigs. BUT, the second shot, (like the video – about 1 click down from horizontal), which I had done hundreds of times before, was perfect. It took out all the wood, fruit, and the 4 left stone blocks, leaving only the 2 lower right pigs for the easy 3rd.
So the secret to a good score? Take out the hollow stone blocks and an incredible amount of luck.
Got the top score without destroying any of the lower stone blocks – reverse boomerang and first Big Brother as described by most contributors – scores of 50000, 85000. The difference here was in flinging the last bird in an arc to just hit the junction were hollow/triangular stone blocks join – high bounce to the right to destroy the structure completely, leaving the melon as spoil for another lucky flinger. I have a screenshot, unsure how to post though.

Reverse boomerang to left-most pig, minor damage, didn’t even kill pig on floor. Second fairly low to ensure pig on floor taken out, causing main tower to fall. Third low again burrowing into sloping stones which were thrown into air causing extensive damage. Top score. Only had 3 flings going from 104k to 108k to 116k in about a minute. Has this got easier?
hi @desperate-dan , seeing your message, played this level now for the first time in 7 years, and it’s much easier indeed for reasons unknown to me. 117150/3 played as before. some details: 1st rr to pig taking out the horizontal plank as well and continuing to break the left support of the tower. 2nd just over the leftmost triangle (not as low as but a little bit higher) to slice through debris of the tower and leftmost 3 or 4 hollow square stones, say for a 85k score with 2 pigs left. 3rd to wood on last hollow square stone on the far right, hope it slices through and takes out everything there. 110k+ scores every few minutes. 120k should be doable.
Hi @vuelva. Congrats on taking my trophy away after less than 24 hours. I do have a couple of trophies in ABO that I have held for 8 years but after this I will let you work out which ones they are!
sorry @desperate-dan . i am not playing against you, or anyone, so will not try to work it out. i sometimes use community -> all activity as a random generator for selecting a level to play, as i did today. your message was the last one there. pertaining to abo, so selected that. your info was correct.
sharing info has that effect, i know, but never mind. today i also posted a top score/strat/screenshot of the previous random level i had played, last weekend, bad piggies 23-8.
quickly got 117660/3 for the daily challenge, so puppies definitely possible (as there’s nothing new compared to before and i am not playing for puppies, no screenshot this time)
Come on @vuelva. Don’t be a party pooper. Let’s see the tally screen. You don’t have to take a puppy if you don’t want to!
@steviep147
uploading has become a bit of a hassle (need to get my laptop, transfer the screenshot to my laptop, grab the picture, and then lower resolution to make it smaller so that the ab-site accepts it (ipad pro screenshots are too large) and i often don’t feel like it, especially not when there’s no new information in it.
i cannot follow your logic. the rules of the challenge only require one to upload a picture if one wants the badge. as i wrote i’m not interested in those so where’s the need to upload and what’s the benefit for me or for others? i did write to confirm desperate dan’s strat though, which was the only relevant thing (indeed others got their puppies by that strat). if someone doesn’t believe a score (s)he can always flag a score. that might have forced me to upload the picture, but probably not in time for the challenge anyway. btw i usually limit my food-intake before a party so as to avoid having to poop at the party since often the toilets do not meet my hygiene standards, so your qualification surprises me.
fyi i now uploaded a screenshot showing that indeed I had attained the 117660 highscore as i had reported.
@vuelva very well done on this. I was trying to point out, perhaps in a rather clumsy way, that we all need to follow the conventions on here, particularly players of your calibre. It would surely set a poor precedent if we didn’t. I understand the difficulty sometimes of uploading a screenshot but there are, as you have shown, ways around it.
Thanks for the heads up @desperate-dan Level is easier and your strat worked treat. I think there will be a few puppies today.
Did a quick video only 113k, which just shows the destruction that can be achieved

Ooh, bad luck @steviep147 on just missing puppy. Still time though…
I’ll have a go maybe but just got too much to do today in this beautiful weather.
117800 with 3 birds.
Same strategy as described by @desperate-dan.
I had almost 91k after the first Terence, so the level is definitely easier now.
One important thing: for the first Terence to successfully traverse the structure, the stone plank leaning on the leftmost square block must be slightly damaged one way or another.
This is what is causing the acceleration effect.
Here is the final result for the Daily Challenge.
And this is highscore screenshot.
All the screenshots are also available in high res here in one set.
@sweetp
I just scored 118,040 points by using the same strategy as in the @steviep147 video. I finally got great destruction on the second shot, and didn’t mess up the third.
@sweetp – Tally screenshot for another puppy;

Congrats to all of the new puppy owners !!
Good luck and happy flinging to all !!!
One of the most pleasant levels in the whole game
Except for the part of destroying the stone squares in a row. That part is random as hell.
119217/3 to reclaim top spot.
Only difference is that I reverted to Classics. The reverse boomerang is stronger in Classics, but that wasn’t the key. Removing a good proportion of the left hand side stone base on a low second shot helps a lot in allowing a more direct shot into the lower right hand corner (not a “bowling” shot). Didn’t go for small right hand tower at all. No idea if this a new approach or not.
I’ll dig out proof when my phone has charged up.
