About

Exploding Piggies

Features
Read full description

Exploding Piggies is a fast, one-touch arcade experience built around controlled chaos. Pop pigs, build streaks, and trigger explosive chain reactions before 20 misses end your run. Easy to start. Hard to master. Completely ad-free. CHAIN THE CHAOS Pop nuclear pigs to blast nearby targets, unleash ultra strikes, and turn a single tap into a screen-clearing combo. BATTLE FOUR BOSSES Take on the Hog-Ship, Sky Hog, Cyber Hog, and Fortress. Each encounter changes the rules with armor, weak spots, escorts, split phases, and a ticking clock. LEARN EVERY PIG Some pigs need multiple taps. Others unleash nuclear blasts or electrical bursts. Choose the right target before the board overwhelms you. DYNAMIC POP DEBRIS & JUICE Watch hats, goggles, helmets, and mud splats tumble in 2D space and land on the background floor with every pop. MAKE IT YOURS Give your piggies custom names, add your own cropped photo, and discover or unlock 14 playful skins—from Ninja and Cyber Neon to Celestial Monarch. POWER UP YOUR RUN Spend earned rubies on Nuclear Strikes, Ultra Nuclear Strikes, and Refills when a run is on the line. COMPETE AND COMPLETE Climb the global Game Center leaderboard, unlock 50 achievements, and chase goals for scores, streaks, flawless runs, bosses, special pigs, and more. SYNC YOUR PROGRESS Keep high scores, rubies, unlocked skins, power-ups, and challenge progress seamlessly in sync with iCloud. WATCH THE WORLD REACT Hand-illustrated skies shift from bright days to sunsets, eclipses, and deep night while expressive sky mascots celebrate your streaks—and panic when pigs slip past. SEE HOW YOU DID Every game-over summary shows your score, level, pigs popped, special-pig counters, and best streak. ACCESSIBILITY BUILT-IN Native support for Reduce Motion and Dim Flashing Lights preferences for a tailored visual experience. No ads. Just piggies.
