"The Bird Game: Pilots' Choice Now on iOS & Android"

by Emily May 03,2025

The Bird Game, developed by the solo team at Candlelight Development, is a unique flight simulator that brings the passion and knowledge of aviation enthusiasts to mobile gaming. Unlike traditional flight sims that might bog you down with dense aviation mechanics, The Bird Game prioritizes simplicity and fun, making it accessible to everyone.

In this engaging game, you embody a bird, navigating through the skies with the primary goal of collecting feathers from other birds. The gameplay revolves around managing your energy to flap your wings and gain altitude, which you can then convert into speed. It's a delightful twist on the classic flight sim formula, where you trade energy to climb and use altitude to gain speed across seven diverse, procedurally-generated environment types.

Despite being crafted by an aviation aficionado, The Bird Game keeps the jargon and complexity to a minimum. Instead, it invites you to race through the skies, unlock over 16 different bird avatars, and upgrade your bird for enhanced speed and thrill. This approach strikes a perfect balance, appealing to both casual gamers and those with a keen interest in flight simulation.

Flappy Bi- oh, wait, wrong gameThe Bird Game evokes memories of classic Flash games that utilized similar mechanics, yet it stands out by infusing the developer's love for aviation without sacrificing accessibility. Candlelight Development has masterfully created a game that's both fun and infused with expertise, yet not overly focused on simulation accuracy at the expense of casual enjoyment.

You can dive into The Bird Game right now on both Android and iOS platforms, available for free with optional in-app purchases to enhance your experience.
