The Bird Game, developed by the solo dev team Candlelight Development, has just hit the Android platform, and it's free to play. Don't let its simple appearance fool you—this game is a strategic challenge wrapped in a delightful flight simulation experience. Dive deeper to discover everything you need to know about this engaging new title.
What’s The Bird Game?
At its core, The Bird Game is a flight simulator where you navigate through various obstacles. You'll climb, dive, glide, dodge, and dash your way through each level, aiming to reach the finish line without getting caught in thunderstorms or sucked into tornadoes.
Your primary objective is to collect seeds, which you earn by popping clouds, snatching fruit, and covering more ground. These seeds serve as your currency for upgrades, allowing you to enhance your bird's speed or agility.
Seeds are also crucial for leveling up your gear and fusing three identical items to create a superior version with improved stats and a higher level cap.
With infinite levels spread across eight unique environments, The Bird Game offers a vast playground. At launch, you can unlock over 16 different birds and customize their flight capabilities with various items.

You Can Even Get Feathers from Other Birds
It might sound a bit unusual, but in The Bird Game, you can obtain feathers from other birds. By flying close enough to trigger your bird's chirp, other birds will drop feathers for you. This feature adds a dynamic, interactive element to the sky, making every flight an engaging experience.
The game world is dotted with hidden treasures like bird feeders and birdhouses. Fly by these to collect items or feathers. Additionally, you can gather gems from daily quests and seasonal challenges, which can be used to unlock even more of these hidden caches.
The Bird Game creates a compelling gameplay loop of collecting feathers, evolving your birds, and unlocking new abilities. Each evolution not only boosts your bird's stats but also grants it a new power. If this sounds like your kind of game, you can find The Bird Game on the Google Play Store.
