Happy early Halloween everyone! Prepare for another gluttonous adventure as Bad Piggies v1.5.0 is now available for iOS, Android, Mac, and PC, with more platforms coming soon. Freckles has gone trick-or-treating early, but remember kids: Pace yourself through the candy, or you’ll get sick!
PC Update: Please see the added section below which summarizes the PC release. It’s a big one, so we wanted to separate it a little bit.
Let’s get to it. This update includes:
- 30 spooky levels in a Halloween-themed episode called Tusk ‘Til Dawn! Just like in previous episodes, there are normal “green” levels and bonus “blue” levels that require a certain number of stars to unlock. As a friendly reminder, don’t forget that you do NOT need to perform all three required objectives in a single run in order to obtain 3-stars on a given level. Our walkthroughs are live if you need any help!
- Dozens of Halloween elements! From Freckles wearing “Jason” masks and dressing like a mummy, to the Egg becoming a jack’o’lantern trick-or-treat pail, to a candy-corn-toothed monster, all your Halloween favorites appear! The finish line has added what appears to be a dreamcatcher, since Freckles passed out from eating candy too quickly.
- 5
secretiOS achievements! - 5 new skulls! Keep an eye out for those explorer remains! Check out Complete Hidden Skulls Guide if you need help finding or nabbing these.
- No new Sandbox or Road Hogs levels in this update, sorry.
- New bugs? Repaired bugs? Let us know in our dedicated forum thread!
- Mac users: Power Ups have landed for Bad Piggies in this update! Read more about them in the PU release post. Note that you cannot purchase Power Ups via the Mac AppStore; PUs can only be obtained via Dessert Mode.
Massive PC Update
This is a major update for Bad Piggies on PC, jumping from v1.3.0 to v1.5.0! That means…
- 30 levels in Rise and Swine, plus the 30 levels in Tusk ‘Til Dawn!
- Over a dozen skulls for you to hunt down!
- One new Sandbox level, and one new Road Hogs level!
- POWER UPS! Yes, Power Ups have managed to land in Bad Piggies courtesy of “Dessert Mode”. You can read about these Power Ups in more detail in the original release post. We note here, though, that Power Ups cannot be purchased on PC; they can only be obtained. Also, the normal Mechanic Pig is not available for PC, since it’s an in-app purchase.
Help Us Improve ABN
Even though there are no new Road Hogs levels added in this update, we’ve started considering creating a Road Hogs Leaderboard here on ABN. There are quite a few hurdles to overcome if we wanted to do this, since our leaderboards are so heavily geared toward Angry Birds and everything they have to offer. That said, we want to hear your opinions! If the community thinks it’s worthwhile, we’ll give it a shot!

Happy early Halloween everyone
Hey! I just went onto the Sandbox level, and you will never guess what I found!
A detach part!
You place it on the vehicle, and when you activate it, it will let go of anything it’s holding on to! Its great for making escape pods and all that stuff! You can even change its colour so you can activate each one individually!
They also added 5 Candy Buckets the the Field of Dreams sandbox!
This is awesome! The fixed the remote stage separation exploit for boxing gloves but added a legit way to do staging. Excellent, Rovio is great at little details like that.
I’ve been in the Field of Dreams fooling around with this. What a fun piece!
Only in Field of Dreams!
@Xano2323 @les-toreadors Where can i find that item? searched in every sandbox but i cant find the detach item??
@josm You can find it in ‘Fields of Dream’ :)
ahhh, i dont have FOD on android so i have to wait to the PC version @ibird and that is coming soon
Yes the separation mechanism is on Field of Dreams only. Worry not I will be waiting for the PC update just like the rest of us.
It’s possible to create stage separation in V1.3 with a number of other means so no worries.
(Remote separation bug was fixed in V1.4, which the PC version never got.)
YYYYYAAAAAYYYYY! I’ve been waiting for the separator thingy! Except I don’t have FOD. But can’t wait for the rotatey thingy!
Can you post me a screenshot of the detach part? I don’t own Field of Dreams on my tablet(and i don’t wanna buy it anyway), but i have the sandbox level on my PC but it hasn’t been updated yet.
Go to the Bad Piggies fan page and scroll down till you see the newest Friday Fave(Missile Launcher Contraption).
I believe the part in the picture is the part that you all were talking about.
Ok found it: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=551030624977228&set=a.356281601118799.83479.348134738600152&type=1&relevant_count=1.
I’m sure that i’m gonna enjoying messing around in the Field of Dreams with this.
Is that just Field of Dreams?
Pork-some!!
The cake levels are delicious. Love crashing into the chocolate mud every time I have a cake craving :) oink.
Bad Piggies also has Toons.Tv, which you can watch AB toons there
Awesome update !! This is my favorite chapter in BP (now).
BTW, Did anyone notice the new Halloween theme song ? It’s pretty cool!
Yup! even AB online shop has the song for limited time
Where do you hear the Halloween song? I have played it, but I dunno where it is!
During gameplay in the new episode, the new song plays.
Found it. It’s when you press the tick.
Once I asked to make RH leaderboard on Twitter, now it comes true!
Anyway, when it is made, never ever post Powerup’ed records!
awesome fantastic anyway i am ready to play & get three stars in all levels thank you for this update rovio
Also now there are total 45 skulls @birdleader.
I was about to post the same…
But I’ve discovered a new thing on this update: they must have added a Multilanguage feature, because before the update, the confirmation message when you wanted to exit the game was in English. Now, it’s in Spanish in my Android phone.
Same goes for Angry Birds.
Yup, I experienced the same. This also Applies to the Game Center achievements. BTW, the 5 New achievements aren’t Secret in my Game Center. Just mentioning, Because it says Secret above. Can everybody Else see Them?
Yes, @amslimfordy, the achievements are not secret (hidden).
Multi language already avalable before.
Yeah, I remember someone played ABo in other language (I don’t know what language it was) and it’s already a few years ago!
Well, Bad Piggies is my only Angry Birds related game in Spanish so far, so maybe Multilanguage is not a new thing, but Spanish is.
Regarding the Road Hogs leaderboard, there already is a leaderboard in iOS but it has some major problems.
It is possible to cheat the timer and post absurdly low times such as 0.01s thereby ruining any sort of fair competition.
This is because the method of breaking the in game clock was posted publicly on youtube. Rovio has, over the months, not fixed the exploitable object that makes this possible.
As a result on pigineering we simply do not bother with Road Hogs as a long term competition at all since there comes a point where all the seven or eight second times involve much more of luck and repetition than construction technique.
This is of course the opinion of a small engineering enthusiast group and ABN’s objectives may differ.
@les-toreadors Of course RH requires HUGE amount of luck, don’t forget that engoneering is its base! No matter how much luck someone have, they won’t record highscores with ground cars only.
Yep. Still want to see fairplay being enforced though. Think of the playerbase – most of us are not going to spend hours and hours breaking the game. We have jobs, kids, etc and we just want a place to sit down, relax and have a fair run with other casual players.
No sense forcing everyone to learn how to glitch timers, power vehicles without engines, and other obscure stuff best reserved for ALF BaconDynamics Labs in Indonesia :)
I can watch toons now :O in this app
Fair enough…
Bad Piggies is a part of Angry Birds universe. So, why not add it over there? ;)
Half the toons are pig lifestyle episodes anyway lol!
Really clever name :)
it would not surprise me if there is another update coming in a few weeks with 15 more levels of this chapter With bonus levels by unlocking 12 stars. + a RH and sandbox level
Don’t see any “Coming Soon” though…
Yes, no coming soon, and also the achievements for 3 staring all levels are already there. So there won’t be more levels in this episode.
@chriss I’m afraid you’re right
I have seen a separate set of content that is not related to halloween that has not been released. I suspect the update schedule had been altered.
Also PC update is crucial for community purposes.
@AMslimfordy Bonus Purple Levels :P
@Josm I thought so, but I’m color blind, so I always avoid referencing colors when I can ;)
But even Rovio talks about “blue” levels (in Came Center), although they are purple.
I like it how the Halloween mask blows off the piggy when you are going very fast in the vehicle. Love the update!
The Pigs are celebrating Halloween with their Costumes….time to get some stars…or treats…maybe both!
Played a few levels and all the curves and circles of travel are fun. Fast travel and is going to interesting on obtaining all the stars.
Absolutely love the ballistic arcs and loops, yes!
Anyone else notice that the trash bin is a LOT closer to the contraption? I’ve deleted my whole contraption several times when I was only trying to move something to the left.
Never happen to mine.
@mvlna2, the Same happened to me.
It may be dependant on screen resolution? Smaller screens are much more congested (hint that’s why I do the serious stuff on PC).
No, i play on iPad.
I also play on iPad, and the distance between the trash can and the contraption space is larger in the older levels.
Here’s the Halloween update trailer: http://youtu.be/B7Egeq5Tumk

Pssst, The zombies… are coming. (Hope you got that reference.)
plants vs zombies refernce?
Yes, New Halloween themed weekly tournament is coming to AB Friends.
It starts from Monday (Acc. to official tweet)
NEW! Angry Birds Friends Halloween Tournament:

Can’t wait for PC or Kindle update! Looks amazing! And as always great job to Angry Birds Nest!
According to prior discussions there is going to be a combined PC update from 1.3 to 1.5 pretty soon, or at least Official Pork has noted the discrepancy between mobile and PC update timings that has been growing bigger and bigger since V1.2.
The PC version is crucial for some YouTube based Bad Piggies communities so rest assured there is priority allocated to the task.
Is the Dessert Mode still available with this update? I can´t find Cake in the new levels yet!
Yes, they’re around.
Ok thanks, but i cant find cakes in the new levels, only in the old levels. Did Rovio forgot to add them into the newest chapter or the cakes only appear in the previous chapters up to Rise and Swine?
I’ve seen plenty in the new levels, but remember that they are generated randomly.
Because the entire environment is the interior of a cake, spotting the collectible desserts can be difficult while speeding around. They are definitely present though not in very huge quantities.
NEW! Bad Piggies Power-Ups are ABALIEVE FOR MAC! :D also includes Dessert Mode :P
Thanks Rovio!
PS: There’s no Power-Up shop so I hope you can only get them by feeding King Pig
PS 2: Evindence! :D

Awesome! The only major platform that still needs the Feed level update is PC.
Agreed.
@les-toreadors @pokemonguy93 they confirmed about 2,5 months ago, that this mode will be available in the PC version.
Like always game is great but I hate colors.
BP v1.5.0 update is available now for PC!
Good. I was starting to worry that they weren’t going to get it out before Halloween. And then because it would have been weird to release it after they would have held it back until next year.
PC version out! Got thingies to do for my Youtube Channel!
I dont see the PC notification.
You can always download manually from download.angrybirds.com.
So…there are no more notifications in the game?
No, there still are. For unknown reasons it just doesn’t work sometime.
Not quite, @orangepower. But the in-game notification runs on a delay and may not check every time you open the app. I’m just providing you with an alternative method.
Got update now. Thanks AMs. Now lets steal eggs.
Feed the king pig mode on PC is giving me a lot more Power-ups than Mobile versions… Or is this just me?
I noticed that to. I would guess the chances are better in the PC version since PUs can’t be bought. Although I feel like, in the mobile version, I was getting more early than I have been lately.
i am playing bad piggies on windows desktop.
the problem is that i dont see any king pig mode and i am not able to get any power ups,please help.
@sujith16 Have you updated your app? Click the gear in the bottom corner of the front splash screen, then click “i” to view the credits. The first thing should say the version number. Make sure it’s up-to-date.
sorry but i have now found it.
i hadn’t played the first level of rise and swine due to which i couldn’t see the king pig mode.
