When people ask what the most challenging game out there is, a few titles come to mind. Dark Souls, Cuphead, Sekiro, Returnal and even the age-old classic Contra.
There is one title, however, that infamously hit the scene and then disappeared as quickly as it took you to die. That game is Flappy Bird.
Now, almost ten years later, and after some ownership handovers, the world’s most difficult game, or at least close to the world’s most difficult game, is back!

The game is planned to re-launch itself in 2025 with a host of new features, including the original Flappy Bird character as well as some new ones, a couple of new game modes and even some multiplayer challenges. One challenge looks to be a mode where you compete against 99 other Flappers shooting Birds into hoops.
