The Bird Game, by pilots for pilots, out now on iOS & Android

by

  • The Bird Game is a new flight sim built ‘by pilots for pilots‘
  • Rather than simulation dense aviation mechanics, it focuses on simplicity and fun
  • Trade energy to climb, use altitude to gain speed, and so on, through seven procedural environment types

Many fantastic games like “The Bird Game” are fueled by both passion and expertise. The source of the talent behind this game is Candlelight Development, a one-person team that specializes in aviation (though in this case, they mean birdhouses). This engaging, high-speed flight simulator has an unusual bird theme and can be played for free on iOS and Android devices.

The fundamental idea behind The Bird Game is that you assume the role of a flying bird. Your mission involves soaring through the air and gathering feathers from other birds, all while keeping an eye on the energy you expend by flapping your wings and climbing. If you’ve dabbled in basic flight simulations, you’ll likely recognize the balance between height, speed, and managing these factors to accumulate enough resources to maintain your energy level.

Absolutely! Even though this game was created by an airplane fanatic, you can relax knowing that there won’t be any confusing aeronautical jargon or technicalities to grapple with. Instead, simply enjoy navigating through seven distinct, randomly generated environment types. As you progress, unlock more than 16 bird characters and enhance your bird for faster speeds and heightened excitement!


Flappy Bi- oh, wait, wrong game

The Bird Game is reminiscent of numerous Flash games with similar mechanics I’m fond of. However, it doesn’t merely replicate those games; instead, Candlelight Development has managed to create something that exudes both passion and skill. Yet, it doesn’t prioritize being an exact or intricate simulation at the expense of casual gamers.

You can find The Bird Game right now on Android and iOS, free with in-app purchases.
