Flappy Bird is one of those games that looks easy—until you try it. You control a little bird that flaps through a series of narrow pipe gaps, and your goal is simply to get as far as you can without crashing. It sounds simple, but one mistimed tap and it's game over.
Just tap the screen (or hit the spacebar) to flap. Let go, and the bird drops. That’s all there is to it. The tricky part is finding a rhythm and reacting fast enough to slip between the pipes. Miss by a pixel and… well, you’ll hear that crash sound a lot.
