If you've never played the game, you've at least heard of it. And by hear of it, we mean you've played the game. This insanely addictive game has been literally everywhere, and yes, I mean literally. The simple gameplay and unimpressive graphics have given Flappy Bird an unexpected and overwhelming amount of success. I remember the first time I played the game and struggled to get past my high score of one for the first hour (I'm at a 76 now if anyone was wondering). That was only about two weeks ago, and now after boasting around a $50,000 daily ad revenue, Dong Nguyen, creator of Flappy Bird and ruiner of lives has decided that he is going to remove the highly popular app from the app store.

On so many occasions I have been flying (if you can the pathetic flapping that demon bird “flying”) and despite appearing to be in the center of the pipes, he dropped like a stone, leaving me with a blank stare on my face.
