Why it has caught fire comes down to the pull of trying again. With every gap your bird clears, your score climbs higher — but so does the pressure. Will you beat your friends' high scores? It is a challenge you take on again and again.
Tappy Bird in a Nutshell
There is nothing to memorise. Press to make the bird rise, then let it dip and tap again. Each gap you fly through adds to your score. The longer you last, the bigger the number. Tap too hard and you fly into the top the run ends in an instant. Easy in theory, nerve-wracking in practice.
Best of all, there is nothing standing in your way: it is completely free to play. No accounts to create, no downloads to wait on — the fun starts the moment it loads. Anyone can pick it up and dip in whenever the mood strikes.
