Great news gamers! Rovio's popular Bad Piggies game has been named App of the Week by Apple, meaning you can download the iPhone and iPad versions of the title for free during the next 7 days.

Rovio’s ‘Red’s Mighty Feathers’ update combines Angry Birds and Bad Piggies

A while ago we stopped posting stories about episodic updates to Rovio's Angry Birds bird-flinging series because we felt these games have run their course.

The approach has resulted in an all-new gameplay that sees you shooting down wave after wave of pesky pugs advancing in their 73 crazy contraptions, including wacky flying machines...

Bad Piggies update lets you record and share gameplay footage

We're growing increasingly tired of Angry Birds here - that's why we've stopped telling you about each and every content update Rovio puts out. This one, however, is newsworthy as it allows iPad and iPhone users to exclusively capture and upload gameplay videos straight from their devices.

Bad Piggies cookbook app lands on the iPad

From the apps to the merchandising, Rovio appears to be making money hand over fist. Yesterday, the brains behind the popular Angry Birds physics puzzler series updated their original game with 30 new levels.
