Despite being a simple 2D game, Flappy Bird became an addictive mobile game in 2013, garnering over 100 million downloads. However, in 2014, original developer Dong Nguyen decided to remove the game from stores, citing personal reasons.
A decade later, Flappy Bird is returning on iOS, Android, and other platforms, along with several new game modes, characters, and multiplayer challenges. But there’s a catch. The original developers, Dong Nguyen have not been developing this version, but the Flappy Bird Foundation, who acquired the legal rights to reinvigorate the game.
