No Phone? Where to get Flappy Bird?

Browser Version of Flappy Bird

Although Flappy Bird is removed from the iOS App Store and Google Play, but you can still play it if you had installed on your phone before it is removed. Dont have phone? Phone is not working? Fear not! Today, I'm going to introduce you some website which provide free HTML5 Version of Flappy Bird!

• http://freeflappybird.org/ 

• http://www.flappylives.com/

FreeFlappyBird is designed for those who had played Flappy Bird before. While FlappyLives is for those who dont know how to play Flappy Bird. Also, FreeFlappyBird does not have sound. I would suggest you to try both. Whichever suit you best, use them! I like FreeFlappyBird for it 'light-weight' . However, FlappyLives seem more easy than FreeFlappyBird. Enjoy flapping your wings!:)

Flappy Bird is not going to 'flappy' anymore

Flappy Bird Shut Down

If you are a fan of the famous Flappy Bird, you probably know that it is removed from the iOS App Store and Google Play . Dong Nguyen, creator of Flappy Bird said that there is no legal actions taken against him for using the art assets from Super Mario Bros 

"I can call 'Flappy Bird' is a success of mine. But it also ruins my simple life. So now I hate it."

The twenty-nine years old also said that he will still continue to make games. So, stay tune for his upcoming games!:)
