Flappy Bird

It disappeared just as quickly as it came to fame. For those of you who don't know what Flappy Bird is: Its an app found in the App Store or Google Play store on iPhone and Android devices. As you tap the screen, the little bird "flaps" up and down. The object of the game is to navigate the bird through Mario-like green pipes. If you hit them or the ground, the game is over. A few months ago, this simple game came out of nowhere, and climbed to the top of the charts in both stores. It's not an easy game, so it quickly became a bragging right if you could get very far. Now, out of the blue, the Vietnamese-based creator pulled the game from both stores, cutting everyone off of this addictive game. His reason? He claims it's because "the game is too addictive" and "it causes stress." However, it is rumored that the creator was receiving death threats from angry players! Whatever the reason, our beloved Flappy Bird is gone forever. Unless of course, you go to http://flappybird.io/?game. You're welcome!
