The Pig House Reviews
“Aside from the wonderfully quirky concept, this is a fun and relaxing build, also if you've lacked pink bricks in your collection until now: Fret no more! The Creeper-Destruction play-feature is cute and works, but the short lever lacks ability to easily transfer enough... More energy to send the heavy house flying satisfyingly.”
BrickFanatics
“The main build of 21170 is a house in the shape of a giant Minecraft pig. The exterior of the abode is almost entirely pink, matching the design of the titular animal. Inside is everything a player needs to survive, a furnace, crafting table, bed, library, and interior... More waterfall, just the basics of course.”
