In every stage, players are tasked to assemble a working contraption that can ferry pigs across the terrain, using a wide variety of automated elements (such as engines), manual items (rockets, wings, umbrellas, balloons, etc.) that can provide power and gliding capability, and special powerups that are found in chests. The players must also think about the general stability of the vehicle, with wooden and metal elements breaking in certain conditions.

In addition to the central puzzle campaign, Bad Piggies also features an engaging sandbox where players can unleash their creativity and create spectacular contraptions and vehicles of all sizes in nine special levels. Special challenges can also be found in special Road Hogs levels (racing against the computer) and Cake Race levels (special item collection stages).
