Flappy Bird
Tap to flap and weave the bird through the gaps between pipes. Simple, addictive, and brutally hard.
How to Play Flappy Bird
Flappy Bird is a one-tap arcade challenge that's easy to learn but famously hard to master. Tap to make the bird flap its wings and rise; let go and gravity pulls it down. Guide the bird through the narrow gaps between pipes without touching them or the ground. Each pipe you pass earns a point.
Controls
- Click, tap, or press Space to flap
- Each flap gives the bird a short upward boost
- Gravity constantly pulls the bird down
Tips & Strategy
- Use small, steady taps instead of mashing — rhythm is everything.
- Aim for the center of each gap to give yourself the most margin.
- Keep your eyes on the next pipe, not the one you're passing.
- Stay calm — most crashes happen from over-correcting in a panic.
Frequently Asked Questions

How is the score counted?
You earn one point for every set of pipes you successfully fly through.
Is there an end to the game?
No — it's an endless game. The challenge is to beat your own best score.
