A new game has arrived on the Google Play store that is part of an entire campaign by ‘truth’ which, if you want TV at all, have probably seen those commercial about how bad smoking is and so on, generally ending with a picture of the truth logo.

During Konami’s 25th anniversary Metal Gear Solid event, the company announced a couple of new games that will be coming to the franchise, one of which will be for mobile gamers.

Rovio, through their Bad Piggies Twitter account, released a new video to tease everyone about what we are guessing is the upcoming pig-themed game called Bad Piggies.
