Hidden Loot Crates

The Hidden Loot Crates are objects in Bad Piggies, being released in the Custom Contraptions update. Three crates of random types can be found daily. There are 7 types of them, listed in a section below. They are also known as Boxes. One must find one via looking at levels, watching a video, buying one in the shop, or winning them in the Cake Race. They can feature alternate items (see Custom Parts), cakes, scrap, Power-Ups or disguises for Ross and King Pig. You can get a 1-star, a 2-star or a 3-star object, as well as an alien one. A wood crate can be purchased for 160 Snout Coins, and the silver and gold crates can be purchased by real money. The loot crates have to be tapped 3 times to open them. Loot Crates reward a certain amount of XP when earned.

The Icon for where the Loot Crate is located is not precisely where it is, it's an image of the level it's located with a Loot Crate. The Loot Crates are often found in locations where it's almost impossible to get them. A wooden loot crate can be found in the credits, Similar to Angry Birds, where you can find a Golden Egg in the credits. However, this loot crate will reward no XP. The Hidden Loot Crates can also be attracted by the "Magnet" power-up. The first time before you purchase a wooden crate with coins, you  get a free crate. Purchasing Field of Dreams will give you a free Gold Loot Crate.

If you get an item you already have, then it will be replaced by a number of nuts. The scrap (nuts) can be used in the Scrap Machine to get custom parts.
