Rovio, the makers of the riveting addictive mobile and Web game Angry birds officially announced a new game Bad Piggies on Tuesday.
Announced as new franchise for the Finland-based entertainment company, Bad Piggies will go live this September 27 for 99 cents on mobile. The game will soon afterwards launch on iOS, Android and Mac – Windows Phone, Windows 8 and PC versions.
“You know you’ll have fun when you have to play as a green bouncy pig, ” Fast Company casts an eye into this latest catch.
“The swine are stranded on a desert island and have to build vehicles and contraptions to make their way to the delicious eggs that they can’t seem to get enough of. Though there is a three-star mechanic at work, there are no birds in sight, and the pigs are bouncy, jovial, and downright likeable–a far cry from the snorting, antagonizing characters from the Angry Birds instalments,” the company said.
“There’s so much more to these pigs than what is seen in the Angry Birds games, and Bad Piggies is the first glimpse into what’s going on in the imaginative and ingenious minds of the pigs,” commented Petri Järvilehto, EVP Games at Rovio.
If the rave and crave over the Angry Birds franchise is anything to go by, piggy right here might just dip us into pool of mud.
