I am completely new with Wine. I haven't installed any games through Wine. What are the steps to install Bad piggies on Ubuntu 12.04?

You could try PlayOnLinux. It's available in the software center and has nice GUI menus to assist you in installing games like this. If your game is not listed, just choose the option to install a game that isn't listed.

Using wine is not complicated but some games or Applications might not work as expected since Wine is NOT an emulator :)

To install normally you do

sudo apt-get install wine

to install application: wine Setup.exe

then if everything went ok you should have the Application/Game installed on your wine directory which as a similar layout as in Windows.

cd ~/.wine/drive_c/

then go to the path of the Application/Game

cd Program\ Files\ApplicationXYZ

and run wine *Executable.exe*

For more instructions and help on Bad Piggies with Wine, follow this page which the Wine community maintain.

EDIT

Also as an alternative, since Bad Piggies should not have a big 3D and CPU requirements you could also try to run it on a Virtual Machine. This is usually more easy and if you have a powerful machine you should get also a good performance.
