About Flappy Bird
Flappy Bird is a free one-button arcade game in which you keep a bird airborne by tapping to flap, threading it through gaps in a series of green pipes. Gravity pulls the bird down constantly, each tap gives one short upward beat, and touching a pipe or the ground ends the run immediately with no second chances.
The whole game is a single mechanic executed precisely. There is no acceleration, no power-ups and no difficulty curve — pipe gaps are the same size at score 1 as at score 100. What changes is you: the game punishes over-correction, and most runs end because a player panicked and tapped twice when one tap was enough.
The rhythm that works is a steady, unhurried tap that holds the bird at roughly the height of the next gap, adjusted a beat before you reach the pipe rather than at it. Players who try to fly through the exact centre of every gap tend to score worse than players who aim slightly low and let the flap carry them up through it, because the bird's upward arc is far more predictable than its fall.
How to play Flappy Bird
Tap, click or press space to make the bird flap upwards once. Between taps the bird falls. Guide it through the gap in each pair of pipes without touching the pipes, the ground or the top of the screen. Each pipe you clear scores one point, and there are no lives — a single collision ends the run.
Tips and strategy
- Tap in a steady rhythm rather than reacting to each pipe. A consistent cadence holds a much straighter line than bursts of correction.
- Aim for the bottom third of each gap. The bird rises predictably after a tap but falls faster than most players expect.
- Look at the gap after next, not the one you are entering. By the time you can see the current gap clearly it is too late to adjust.
- If you find yourself double-tapping in a panic, stop and let the bird fall a little — recovering from too low is far easier than from too high.

What is a good score in Flappy Bird?
Anything above 10 puts you ahead of most first-time players, 30 is a solid score, and scores above 100 are rare. Because the pipe gaps never change size, a high score is purely a matter of sustaining a consistent tapping rhythm.
Does Flappy Bird get faster?
No. The scroll speed and the size of the pipe gaps stay identical for the entire run. The difficulty is entirely in maintaining concentration and a steady rhythm, which is why runs usually end to a lapse rather than to a harder obstacle.
