Bad Piggies is a puzzle video game developed by Rovio Entertainment, and was the company's first spin-off to Angry Birds. The game launched on Android, iOS, Windows and Mac on September 27, 2012.

Unlike the Angry Birds games, the player assists the minion pigs in building contraptions that travel on land and in air to collect pieces of a map to ultimately capture and take away the Angry Birds' eggs. As of October 2012, Bad Piggies was the fastest-selling game on the Apple App Store, and the quickest one to reach the top of the app list in just three hours.
In June 2016, Rovio made Bad Piggies free-to-play, since it previously had a purchase price.
