The Third Piglets Tower — Play Free Online

Jump & Platform

The Third Piglet's Tower is a relaxing idle game where three piglets build a tower to the sky. Play it free in your browser.

The Third Piglets Tower is not a jumper at all, even though it sits on the jump and platform shelf here. It is an idle management game: three piglets want to build a tower that reaches the sky, and you decide where their effort goes. The studio behind it is Airapport, the same team that made Babel Tower and Farm and Mine.

A session is calm and mostly about planning. You send the piglets to pull stones out of the ground and chop trees, turn those raw materials into bricks, and sell goods to pay for upgrades. Each upgrade makes the next round of work faster, and the tower slowly gets taller. If you come to Doodle Jump for the "just one more climb" feeling, this scratches the same itch with a different kind of height: you climb by optimising rather than by timing jumps.

It runs in the browser with nothing to install, and it suits short check-in sessions as well as longer sittings.

How to play

The whole game is played with the mouse or a finger. Click or tap to make a choice: pick a task, start production or buy an upgrade. There is no movement and no aiming, so the arrow keys and WASD are not used here, whatever other jump games on the site may ask for.

The loop is simple. Gather stone and wood, craft them into bricks, sell what you can spare, and spend the money on the upgrades that improve your production chain. As more of the work becomes automated, your job shifts from doing tasks to deciding which part of the chain is holding everything back.

Tips

Look for the slowest step in the chain. If bricks are waiting on wood, extra stone-gathering upgrades will not help.
Prefer upgrades that automate a task over ones that only speed it up slightly, since automation keeps working while you are not clicking.
Do not sell everything straight away if you need the materials for crafting.

Similar games on Doodle Jump

If you want something with a tower theme but more action, Day D Tower Rush is a good next stop, and Bloons Tower Defense 2 turns tower thinking into strategy. For the actual jumping, Doodle Jump itself, Helix Jump and Bird Jumper are all about reflexes, which is the opposite of this relaxed builder.

It works on desktop, phone and tablet, and a mouse or touch screen is all you need.
