About this game

Flappy Bird

Flappy Bird is the one-tap flying challenge. Flap to stay aloft, thread through pipe gaps, and rack up points until you clip a pipe or the ground, which happens faster than pride would like to admit.

This is an independent tribute version of the well-known original created by Dong Nguyen, in the same spirit as the many other unofficial browser versions that exist across the web. What sets this one apart is context: it lives inside a bigger free games collection, so a frustrating run is one click from something less rage-inducing.

How to play

  1. Click, tap, or press Space to flap.
  2. Stay airborne without hitting the ground or ceiling.
  3. Thread through the gaps between pipes.
  4. Rack up one point per pipe passed, and try to beat your best.

Tips and strategy

  • Small, frequent taps beat one big flap, tiny corrections keep you centered in the gap.
  • Watch the upcoming gap rather than your bird's current position, reacting a beat ahead helps more than reacting in the moment.
  • Accept that this game is deliberately, famously unforgiving, a low score is not a reflection of your reflexes in general.

What you get

  • Tap or click controls
  • Endless pipe gauntlet
  • Personal best saved
  • 3-2-1 start countdown
