Pig Bang level 1-20 is the introduction of the Lazer bird! The level is easy, but it is worthwhile to play it a few times to get the hang of this new ability. Launch the Lazer bird to the left of the planet, then tap/click the screen on the far-right pig. You will see purple crosshairs appear where you tapped, and the Lazer bird will turn in a straight line toward it.
Debut: This level is the debut of the Lazer Bird, the Space version of the Yellow Bird. He obeys normal physics until triggered, then becomes a laser; i.e, goes in a straight trajectory to point triggered until he contacts another object. At that point, he obeys normal physics again.
I must be doing something wrong with this bird, mine goes back where it came from, it does not head down like yours does. How do you get it to go down like that? I am sending it to the same spot, and when I hit my screen for him to go down, he returns to the slingshot.
I had this problem too. What you need to do is actually touch where you want him to go, unlike touching the slingshot as I did in original AB. The purple crosshair will come up and this is where your bird will go.
Hope I helped!
Thank you so much! That totally helped!
The minimum score for 3 stars must be lower than 36.000 because I got 3 stars with 35.995.
Agreed, since there is no additional debris on this level, and 26K is 2*, I would say that the defacto minimum 3*, courtesy of josephine, is 35K.
I just hit the shiny object on the top of the planet. It takes you to an alternate universe with another pig target. I only got 1 star on that and want to try it again, but can’t figure out how to get back to it since the shiny object is now gone.
You triggered the wormhole to go into the Eggsteroid level. Go back to your level selection screen and you can find it there.
Someone above mentions there’s no additional debris on this level but there actually is…you can get a few extra points if you have him hit thru some of the grass before he strikes thru the pigs…it’s tricky but the more grass you hit before pigs, the higher the score…just tap earlier and closer so he goes thru some grass too.
Another great strategy AA. I noticed we had the same score, checked the leaderboard and there are 19 with this score. It’s the 4th highest. Crazy level!
That’s crazy! I guess we need to get a few more pieces of grass to break free from the pack!
You can also fire the bird almost horizontal, and then trigger it to come backwards through the pigs in order to get some grass that way! :)
I don’t understand the crosshairs thingie. It comes up after you activate the bird so then what?
Wherever you tap on the screen, the lazer bird will go there.
Ty I figured out how to use the cross hairs..this is a very tricky level. Hit or miss. Anyway at least got average, this is not one to keep trying for higher score. It is what it is:)ty all for help:)
Yep, shoot below planet and place xhair on top grass will get you some extra points.
What a crazy level I have the same score As you AA.
This is the first level that I can get the same score over and over again.
We had the high score until someone managed to cut some more grass than us.
Yes, I know, lol I have tried to get top score back but I keep getting 36355!!! Crazy level!
Top tip thank you!
O.k. ty lol I get it now:) my phone keeps shuttilng down anyone else having problems with sprint? They say there is an outage. Tower down..
I used a different approach, I came in for the other side. Also getting some grass. It’s less tricky, but I see my score is still up for improvement with a whole 600 points. LOL
Here’s my video
Another little tidbit on this level…if you go directly through the pig…and not just burst the bubble…it’s more points:
Big Pig…just bubble=310 then 5000 for the pig freezing and dying
Big Pig…through pig=5410…so an additional 100 points.
Small Pigs…just bubble = 310 then 5000 for the pig freezing and dying
Small Pigs…through pig = 5360…so an additional 50 points.
So, if you just freeze pigs…you’re missing out on 200 total points
Wow, thanks for this! Nice find! Hopefully this will improve my score. :)
To all the folks who scored above 36,355 please share your tactic on getting us through this stopping point. This is exciting because there are so many at this score. Thank you in advance if someone feels so kind.
Haven’t achieved that score yet and probaly never will lol..but if you scroll up there are plenty of strats even a video by E-Star that will help although you have already got that score, maybe you could share your tricks with me cuz I have no luck here::)
Oh lol you said above that… srry I am so frustrated with this I can’t even get the average what you have…forgive my misunderstanding please:(
I thought I might be able to pick up some bonus points by replaying the level the very first time to see if there were any points available by getting the eggsteroid along with the three pigs, so I installed the app on my wife’s phone, shot the bird horizontally, and cut back through the pigs to the egg. Unfortunately, it just took me off through the wormhole, and I was not able to keep the score I received. Was worth a shot…
Tried this again, and it does work, but only if you tap the wormhole icon after playing the eggsteroid level. If you just tap the level select icon, you lose progress on the original level, if you tap the wormhole icon, it takes you back to where you were in the original level. The eggsteroid is worth 500 points, Shoot carefully, you only get one chance at the high score per installation of the app!
I’ve exhausted myself trying to get higher than 36,355. It would be great if one of those who did get higher than this would post on this level with their strategy. I’m thinking that it might work better to shoot from below – but so far I still just get the same score.
I went below, than hit those plants. It would be possible to get about or over 40k if that hunk of cement wasn’t there.
I still don’t think that score is possible…
If you didn’t get extra-bird-bonus you could get 20,000 using 2 or 3.
Your score is the same a mine, too!
It is not possible to exceed 36,850. You’re claiming 38k (and have written 3 different scores now).
I send the lazer bird under the planet and click/tap to the top plants to get extra points through the pigs
I hope help us to surpass your highscore
I did that too, its a lot harder, but you can still get 36K by doing that.
@AMslimfordy I Think KathyHT has made a typo. Score 63140. Guessing it should be 36140 :-)
36390 is possible by going far right and then going throught the three pigs and crashing on the planet at the exact spot (and the exact impact angle). Given the egg location, it is pretty clear that an identical shot would also get the 500 extra points for the egg, hence a potential Top Score of 36890.
36500. Send him below the planet. And press on the egg but he has to kill the pigs first
I’ve come back to this level to improve ,unfortunaltly for me I got the egg prior to my return:( so now i can only get 36, 350 . @admins why are there so many 36355 score which now makes it impossible the someone to get into top 100? :(
@kathy
Even if the egg is gone, you can get 36,390, and this sends you into top 100. It is a difficult shot, however as you really have to graze above moonrock to catch the last bit of leaves on the left. Only 8 players reported it (plus myself, but I went above afterward), which is few as compared to the 36,350 crowd, but this is also due to the fact that few people wanted to spend one hour on this level to scratch an extra 40 pts.
If you want to go above, save your data files, restart a game from scratch, save again as soon as you reach level 1-20, try once, reload saved game (since a failed attemp will probably activate the egg), try once again, and so on. I got 36,570 this way (see https://www.angrybirdsnest.com/members/sglouk/album/picture/9277/ ). Of course such score score will never be on the save data file as the rest of your scores, but it does not matter, I think as there is nothing that obliges you to have all your high score on the save data flies, obtained on the same platform, and so on.
Top Score picture proof (sorry @sammishredd ):

I have been surprised to get 36,870 since I would have expected that activating the egg would give a commonly obtained score plus 500 pts, but apparently, no one ever scored 36,370. Therefore the points awarded from foliage + egg do not match the naive expectation I had, and I cannot say how much one can improve this mark. All I can say is that it was comparatively much easier to get 36,870 with egg activation than 36,390 without egg.
@sglouk @magsy79 — In the Mirror World, how did you get 3*? Is there something off-screen I can’t see? I just totally don’t see how to do it with less than 3 birds.
@mvnla2
One birder by sending Red at reduced speed so that it turns around planet and goes into the three pigs bubbles. It is important that you only pop the first two bubbles and do not hit the pigs. If so, you would lose too much momentum and would be deflected without any possibility to pop the third bubble. It is not an easy shot, but not the most difficult either.
@sglouk — Thanks! Don’t know if this is easier or harder than bouncing 3 birds off the planet and getting 1 star! I play on an old iPad, so don’t know if it will work for anyone else: I set screen so I could see entire gravity field of small planet. I aimed red so his path was about 1/8th of the way from the outer edge, and reduced speed so that the last dot was between 1 and 2 o’clock. Took quite a few tries.
Whoever decided this was a good level for a challenge……well…… I really needed a day off anyway. Not wasting my time. See y’all tomorrow.
@admins, I’m wondering the same as @stocktoad. If the TopScore is the max why is this a Challenge?
@stocktoad @justpast40 – I had sort of the opposite happening. I decided to visit the challenge today for a change after a long while as a day on… My response to it is the same as you however.
Whether or not you kill these swine, it’s good to see you back @jaydee
@stocktoad @justpast40 @jaydee
The max you can get without using a game restarted from scratch is not 36350, but 36390. Therefore, you still have an extra 40 pts to get… But I agree that it is very unlikely you can compete for top score unless you restart a game from scratch and use an old version of the game.
@stocktoad
Agree, I will also give it a rest today. Given that it’s Friday the 13th it’s probably a good idea to stay out of all kinds of trouble…
and I thought it was just me, ’till I read the walkthrough
I finally “threw in the towel” around mid-day. Just a bit too much of watching the same score come up time after time with no apparent hope of improvement. Count my vote added to the list of those hoping to see this level scratched from the rotation of future Challenges.
36,870 with 1 bird, with the Eggsteroid present. Done on PC v1.0.0. It displays as 36,875 in the highscore section after restarting the level from the results screen, but I’m not sure if I should submit this instead.
Without the Eggsteroid, the best I’ve gotten is 36,350.
