Help for Pigpen, and the way to reach a person about it.

Common questions

How do I play?

Tap a tile to place a fence, or press and drag to lay a whole run at once. Start a drag on a fence you have already placed to pull a run back out. Enclose the pig — and enclose as much ground as you can while you are at it. Water walls a pen for free. When you release the pig it tries every route, and one gap to the edge of the board lets it out.

I'm stuck on a level.

Every level can be solved with the fences it gives you. Undo steps back one press at a time, and clearing the board counts as a press, so a single undo brings it all back. Any pen that holds scores, so start with one that simply works and grow it from there.

How do I turn the daily reminder on or off, or change the time?

In Settings — the gear on the home screen — under Daily puzzle reminder. If the switch is on but nothing arrives, notifications for Pigpen are off in your iPhone's own Settings; the card says so and gives you a button that takes you there.

How do I stop the game collecting anything?

In Settings, under Privacy, turn off Anonymous usage. The privacy policy lists exactly what is and is not collected.

How do I start over?

In Settings, under Game data, tap Clear all game data. It forgets every star, every level you have unlocked and every daily puzzle you have finished. You are asked to confirm, and it cannot be undone.

Can I watch the cut scenes again?

Yes. In Settings, under Cut scenes, tap Watch every cut scene to play them all in order — including ones from worlds you have not reached yet.

What does Pigpen cost?

The download is free, and it includes the whole first world — Mudlark Meadow — plus a new daily puzzle every day. One purchase, The Full Game, unlocks the other eleven worlds and the whole daily archive. It is a one-time payment, not a subscription, and it is yours for good.

I bought the full game on another phone.

Open anything still locked and tap Restore a purchase. The purchase belongs to your Apple account rather than to a phone, so it restores free on every device you are signed in to.

Does my progress follow me to another phone?

No. Your progress is saved on the phone you played on, and there is no account to make or sign in to. The purchase itself is the one exception — see above.

Is it suitable for children?

Yes. It is a game about a pig getting into and out of mud: no violence, no chat, and no links out except this page and the privacy policy. The only thing for sale is the full game, behind Apple's own purchase sheet — on a phone set up for a child, that means an approval request goes to whoever manages purchases.
