Controls
Space or Click to flap, P to pause, R to restart
Tips & Strategy
Tap with a steady rhythm rather than rapid tapping — each tap gives a small upward boost. Focus on the gap between pipes, not on the bird itself. Stay near the center of the gap vertically. The hitbox is smaller than it looks, so don't panic if you're close to a pipe. Try to maintain a consistent altitude by tapping at even intervals. After passing a pipe, immediately start preparing for the next one.
Game Features

How Scoring Works
You earn 1 point for each pair of pipes you successfully pass. There are no bonus points or multipliers — pure skill determines your score. Your high score is saved locally so you can track your personal best across sessions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is Flappy Bird so hard?
The difficulty comes from precise timing. The bird drops quickly due to gravity, and each tap only gives a small lift. The narrow pipe gaps require consistent rhythm. Practice makes perfect — most players improve dramatically after a few attempts.
Can I play Flappy Bird on my phone?
Yes. Simply tap the screen to flap. The game is perfectly suited for mobile play and works on any modern phone or tablet browser.
Is the pipe pattern random?
Yes, pipe positions are randomly generated each game, so every playthrough is different. This keeps the game fresh and tests your adaptability.
