One strategy for Hogs and Kisses level 2-1 (formerly level 16) is to fire the White bird below the clouds, bombing to ricochet the bird into the cloud supporting the TNT. Use another White bird or two to bust all clouds supporting the main structure. Watching the video, you can see how much of a domino effect is possible here! The score in the video below is 108,440.
Note: In a recent update, the level numbers were changed from Level 16 to Level 2-1.
118,130. Two birds. First one just happened to start a cascade that cleared most of the board.
Better method is to fire the white birds below the clouds. Strike the cloud with the TNT on it from below to destroy the large pig and heart and then fire a second white bird in the same place to collapse the structure and clear the level.
I finally did it! Still only 111K but I will keep working it. The key is to have the TNT detonate as its beginning to fall, eh?! :-)
Awesome this worked perfectly on the first tryeso
111800! Thanks James!
I think if you shoot the bird in the middle cloud on the right a little you can pass with one bird.
123090! Yep! U r right ;)
GRRR! LOL I keep trying but I just cannot get it done in one bird… And two birds is only giving me 106K… HELP!! What am I doing wrong?
118380, two birds. James’ method is definitely the best. This is the first level I’d been stuck on in ages. Good on ya.
where is level 16,17,18. They don’t show on my game
I think you have to finish the first 15 levels, then scroll to the next page, and click the like button. When you come back to the game, levels 16-18 will then change from locked to open.
Same first shot as the video, just slightly to the right. Took down the whole structure with one bird.
Oops! Didn’t post the score – 121340
i don’t get it, I got 103640 but it won’t give me three stars! What’s up with that?
Oh, so close. The minimum 3 star level is 104,000. Check out our Almanac for the minimum 3 star scores on every Angry Birds level…EVER!
Ah, thank you. I’ll try again. :)
1-16, 120420.. 1 shot!!.. 1st shot, w/b fired under the clouds. On detonation (tapped screen) the “birdbomb” has to be projected through the right side of the center cloud favoring the small gap directly under the wood supporting the TNT (see pic for angle). The “birdbomb” must detonate the TNT deep inside the structure whilst the TNT is in free fall.

Thanks for the strategy. I was about to give up on it and switch to the alternate strategy of taking out the middle section and firing a second shot into the interior and collapsing the structure on itself, but my first shot detonated the TNT and most of the structure collapsed. So I did this another 10-15 times and was able to get a one shot kill! Total score was 121100!! Thanks!
WOO-HOOO!! Did it like you said @marc987, and got 8th on the leaderboard! Please have a Sun Upper on me in the BP. Thank you!
using the bombing from below the blocks of snow works better, especially if you hit the snow beneath the tnt the first time and it all falls with just one bird. a beautiful site.
106170 by using james method
in the hogs and kisses, I received three stars on levels thru 15, however 16,17 and 18 are still locked out. Any advice? Same for go green.
This is a known bug. Hopefully it is fixed in the upcoming Moon Festival update.
it looks like the bug came back. cannot access the last 3 FB levels even when i “liked” it.
Must “Like” within the app. There is no known bug at this time. Try restarting your device and giving it another try. Otherwise, please contact Rovio directly.
124370 one bird…. same first shot as video just impact a little more right
first bird bomb in the gap between the first and middle towers with luck it should destoy the towers and the tnt should destoy the tower with some metal to fall to kill the bothem pigs. Scored 114690
OK I finally got 3 stars on all levels, how to I activate the heart with the stars in it? Did I miss something?
If you look at the episode selection screen, does it say 54/54 stars?
Is there a trick to getting these or something? I play on PC and I’ve never seen 16, 17 or 18 Hogs and Kisses… I have the Big Heart and the Golden Egg and 3 stars in 1-15… I’ve got everything but, as far as I’m aware, am missing these levels. (Which I have only just noticed lol)
oops it I think I’ve answered my own question… I’m on a computer… My leaderboard is missing 6 scores because I can’t afford a smart phone :(
Facebook/Twitter levels are not currently available for PC and Mac.
What a frustrating level! I can’t get any sort of consistent destruction at all. I’ve played it literally hundreds upon hundreds of times, and I’ve only gotten the TNT to explode in the right place for a one-birder two or three times. None of them actually got all of the pigs; only one of them gave me a chance at an above-average score with two birds, and I flubbed the second shot. Consider this an official performance-enhancing whine – this is the first time I’ve ever attempted one, but I want the score here particularly badly, because this seems to be my best episode in any game.
using PC…are 16, 17, and 18 not available on PC, like some of the other seasons?
That’s correct.
I’ve Angry birds seasons 2.5.0 pc version but there isn’t any level 16,17,18. They don’t show on my game, no like button on golden egg page
This is just the way that PC and Mac are. They have never had these levels.
You should take 16 17 and 18 off the PC leaderboards to save confusion.
The Leaderboards are absolute. They cannot be adjusted for specific platforms.
oh I see, thought they where seperate for each platform,i could finish the scores i need of on my Samsung Galaxy when ive finished then
PC doesn’t have this level, so I have to play on my android…
I got a better way to score at least 105k consistently… throw both of the first two bird same way like the 1st throw shown on video…
Like @marc987 mentioned a one birdie is possible by going underneath the structure. I got 124950 this way.
Here is my video.
can’t get the 1 bird shot but 2 birds using your video @e-star increased my score by 2k…thank you…..
I was activating too late. Thanks to @Marc987 and @e-star for the help getting my first “Top Score” in Hogs and Kisses. Awesome debris damage!
Nice flinging Mister @Rat9 congratz with your first TopScore in HaK!!
Oh man I was getting ready to Kill something becsuse of this level!! Must have watched your video 100 times @e-star and I could Not get it to work! Don’t know how many times the TNT exploded IN the hole and Nothin! Finally just started to fling willy nilly like the mad woman I am and BAM it Finally happened!! Makes no sense!! Whatever just über happy to move on! I couldn’t get Marc’s pic to come up so I’m triple thankful for your video!! :•
Nice score @rat9! Congrats on getting that trophy!! :)
Awww @kimmiecv you weren’t kidding Pahtnah this level had me almost in tears! ! Finally got it good enough to move on.. nice score ya got:)
Congrats @rat9 on top score woohooo!!
Was playing this old level in a recent quest. Had a one birder as described above and realized that my result is slightly higher than the current top score. So, I have entered it here (https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/members/aki-van-emden/album/picture/22421/).
I would expect that there will be many puppies and that my score will be beaten many times over as this took only a few attempts. White egg dropping bird slightly higher than horizontal. Dropped the egg just in front of the mound. Center fell left, left fell right right fell left then the remaining left fell right again. All the clouds were gone. Thanks @marc987

@wicket182 you gave us so much hope! Couldn’t beat my existing 129k and no one else could beat your top score, as yet. See you on the next Seasons puppy challenge. I seldom play other challenges
@hunnybunny , I flung a few after work today. I posted a screenshot of the trajectory and the activation point that may be of some help. I guess lucky sometimes trumps skill.

Matilda underneath to take out the big rectangle and the small square to its right. The rest is up to luck.
