Soothe your broken heart with one of these:
1
If 8-bit gaming fills you with nostalgia...
"774 Deaths" is a maddeningly confusing 8-bit nightmare that will, like "Flappy Bird," have you questioning whether the game is absolutely terrible or whether you're really that bad at playing it. (Spoiler alert: You're actually just that bad.)
Get it for $0.99 from the App Store.

If you find joy in losing your sanity...
A beautiful, fascinating example of how to make an exemplary mobile game, "The Room" is going to drive you absolutely up the friggin' wall. You must solve all the puzzles in your colleague's study, as you attempt to save mankind from great peril. And you're going to lose your mind in the process, we guarantee it.
Get it for iOS for $0.99 or for Android for $1.99

If you were only playing because everyone else was...
"Flappy Doge" is exactly what you think it is: It's "Flappy Bird," but instead of controlling what looks like a fish with wings, you fly a Shiba Inu.
Very meme. Very viral. Very entertaining.

If you just want to die repeatedly...
"Limbo" remains one of the most highly praised and beautiful games for mobile. We have a feeling you're gonna love it -- well, unless you have a serious problem with cartoon children dying increasingly horrible, graphic deaths.
Get the lite version on Android for free and the full version on iOS for $4.99.

If you just want to relive the past...
We're sorry, but you can't. "Flappy Bird" is gone now; accept it. But you can turn to one of its clones for solace. We recommend "Flappy Bee," since it's kept the signature frustrating "Flappy Bird" gameplay but updated the graphics.
