Description: A VR version of the classic Bird jumping game in first person 3D virtual reality for Google Cardboard.

Review: Just when you thought Flappy bird couldn’t get any harder or more annoying, in comes VR Flappy for Cardboard to prove you wrong! Played in a first bird perspective style, you have to do the same thing as you did in the original name. Only this time in glorious VR 3D! Once again you will find yourself comparing your high score with your friends and family to see who is the ultimate virtual reality flappy bird VR player!

While you can indeed play this game using nothing but an NFC button and a mobile VR headset it is best played with a gamepad tethered. While a lot harder to play than the original it is still amazing fun for the whole family and a great example of a quick fun VR game. With cartoon-style graphics and a good frame rate, it will soon have you flapping with VR frustration over and over again. Fun for a short while, but does get frustrating very quickly.
