Nostalgic gem. Makes me so happy. Phenomenal.
Mon Jul 18 2022 AudiFan5140I started plying this game on my dads phone when I was about six. (2014) I enjoyed the game, but I eventually forgot about it due to me having a tiny attention span. I re-downloaded the game in 2021, and I opened it up while sitting in my bed at my grandparents house (we were living here at the time because our house was being built) and I actually cried. It reminded me of the days when I was on top of the world, in fever mode if you will, and everything just worked out. Now, as a 13 year-old surrounded by schoolwork, endless political drama, and other things I would like to keep to myself, the game just hit me with a wave of nostalgia. I was so happy to see it back. Not only did it make me so deeply happy, but the game itself is incredible. No ads, no purchases, no lag. It is such a rare type of game nowadays, where game developers care only about squeezing as much profit out of a game as possible, user enjoyment being an afterthought. This game truly means something special in todays world. It will always be my favorite piece of technology ever created. I can’t thank Andreas Illiger enough for creating this game.
Simple yet engaging! A longtime favorite.
Thu May 25 2023 Quinn WestI became obsessed with this game when I was in middle school when it first came out, before every app had advertisements and in app purchases around every corner. I am happy to say that they have not added that to the game.
This game has simple gameplay yet it feels exciting, familiar and engaging. It always made me feel energized yet relaxed as I learned the rhythm of when to get my bird friend to jump and glide on the hills. A game can be played in a minute or two, depending on how far you are able to get. The artwork and design is beautiful from character designs, scenery, background, music, and even the UI. Every element of the game from the type feels cohesive. Not a thing has changed about the game since I played in middle school, as it was already perfect to begin with. I just love this game and I felt after playing it for nearly a decade, it deserved a review. Thank you to the tiny bird friend who comforted me during school trip bus rides, all the way to just an after work game session.
Two brothers and this game
Mon Jan 29 2024 Remington9089Now feels like a fitting time to write this review my younger brother and I just managed to fly through the fourth island in fever mode It was an exciting and at some points frustrating mission but the feeling you get when you finally manage to sore through that island with stars falling from your birds back the way is well worth the effort put in. The game has gorgeous graphics, fun characters, and simple controls that still allow for many optimizations to be made in every game mode. The unlockables in this game are great weather be completing missions to unlock nest or grabbing coins to hatch eggs.
The local multiplayer for iPads is a nice touch if you want to race your sibling or friend.
I have had a lot of fun and excitement, in flight school climbing up the leader boards, supported by game center. I am slightly annoyed, however at the fact that the world record for clown island is 10 seconds. Which is simply impossible without hacks or glitch in the system. But that’s not the apps fault(please don’t hack)
An instant classic game from iOS
Sun Jun 03 2018 Cho_nRemember well when this game was featured in a Apple Keynote way back in the first years of the App Store starting to thrive with games. The art style really atracted me, and gameplay, promising. Got an iPhone a couple years later and saw why many websites were amazed with the game. The gameplay is very arcade style in you can keep going by skill and rack up points, but unlike many arcade games, its a very relaxing game. The art style has such a happy, feel good, type of setting that gors well with the music and playful physics of jump-sliding through hills. Each hill area also feels like it was random generated, and keeps a feel of variety. Definitely a great example of simple phone controls with depth in gameplay, plus replay value. The race addition mode of playing the chicks to be the first to mama bird is also genius in reusing some assets with new ones, without feeling cheap. I am glad this is still in the app store and will be superior to any other flappy bird ever. Download this instead.
Best game on the App Store
Tue Mar 09 2021 Cornucopia86I recently went back in my app history and downloaded games I was into almost ten years ago when I was in middle school. This game is still A++, it has it all. Super smooth playing, beautiful artwork, the music is high quality and sets a great vibe. The birds are very cute and also funny (the “yooohoooo!” from one island to the next gets me every time). It’s engaging yet relaxing, and all the while uplifting. I love that in you can just compete against yourself, and when you lose your momentum you can build it again quickly, so there’s no real frustration, just potential for getting into an exciting “flow” mode; the perfect level of challenging and accessible that can cater to everyone. And what’s new since I re-downloaded is the flight school mode, where you can race the other birds for a faster and more competitive pace. I’m incredibly impressed and grateful that the developers have kept up this game, it really brings me a lot of joy. Thank you!
Nostalgia.
Mon Aug 06 2018 JainaellisMy mom got this for my first-generation iPod was I was seven years old, and I LOVED this game. I got to island ten once or twice when I was eight, and it’s been quite a while since I’ve been able to match that. Now I’m back to occasionally hitting islands eight and nine, but I haven’t gotten back to ten yet! I still remember how all the islands (up to eight) are laid out, so it’s even easier for me to play this. When I was seven, I got through the level in which you had to pass through island four in fever mode; it’s not really that hard (you just have to know how the land is laid out). I remember the racing mode, but I’ve never really cared all that much about it.
Now I’m fourteen, and I still love to play this on my phone. The game is not glitchy at all, and it never has been. It’s such a beautifully simple game. The colors are amazing, the gameplay is awesome and the nostalgia is MAJOR. Now that I’m a sophomore, looking back at my second-grade self playing this game, I get odd sensations (especially if I’m playing 2008 Taylor Swift or Cyndi Lauper in the background 😂). It really makes me feel warm and safe.
As I’ve already said, I’ve loved this game since I was a little girl, and it’s still as great as ever. It’s a classic! Thank you for so much fun over the years!
(Ignore your negative reviews, because they’re mostly misspelled. Those people don’t know what they’re talking about 🙄😏😆)
Brings back memories
Sun Jul 29 2018 FablehavenLoverI’m now 13 years old, but when I was around 7-8 my mother downloaded this game for me. Of course I didn’t really get it, and just though the bright colors were cool. We ended up deleting it, simply because of my short attention span as a little kid. I recently downloaded it again, and was surprised at how smooth the gameplay was. One tap controls make the game nice and simple, while rolling hills make you feel warm and fuzzy, almost. I highly recommend this game!
Also... I’ve read a lot of reviews about the objective ‘reach island 4 in fever mode’ being too hard. I finished it in one try. The objective is to simply be in fever mode (starts with a perfect slide) while transferring to island 4. Not being in fever mode nonstop on islands 1-4.
Additionally: these aren’t fake reviews, like people are saying! SOME people just don’t understand the simple beauty of the game!
The update is awesome!
Mon Dec 18 2023 Kiki needs a WikiI somehow managed to stumble upon the update only 6 hours after it was released - a very joyous surprise for me, as I never thought the app would ever update again! This charming game is as pleasant as ever, and all of the new additions are fantastic! My nitpicky mind is *especially* happy that doing flips between islands actually effects the trail now, haha! I’ve only just begun unlocking the birds (including the sunbird) and I have noticed that the dark blue bird with spikey hair and orange stars all over it is unusually uninfluenced by the clouds, which I think is a bug. It usually keeps the birds from going to high with a pretty notable push, but this bird in particular practically ignores it! I think I could learn a thing or two from that bird…
If you guys ever plan to update again, I have a little wishlist. I think the game could use a handful of new songs, new coins, maybe the birds could have a brief exasperated expression when a combo breaks, and finally I think being able to add your own noises to a custom bird of sorts with your voice would be very neat.
All in all I’m glad to this game freshened up. It was one one of the first iPhone games I came across before I ever owned one, and I always have respect for childhood joys that can endure the test of time.
Your game is beautiful. 👍
Gold Standard for Mobile Games
Sun Apr 25 2021 consistentfailureIt’s always sad to come back years later to a game you used to love as a kid and find it filled with ads, microtransactions, and obnoxious unlockables that are clearly trying to frustrate you into spending money. Fortunately, Tiny Wings is not one of those games. The game is just as fun as I remember it being with none of the annoying updates that many older mobile games have received over the years.
Even then it was a great game. Great music, satisfying gameplay, and perfectly simple controls all make for a game that is easily worth the asking price. Objectives add a great amount of replayability, as if it was needed, and the racing mode is a great way to make the gameplay feel fresh without adding any new mechanics.
This is exactly what every mobile game should be.
Tiny Wings review 💛
Mon Jul 23 2018 laureen123456890Tiny wings is an addicting and fun game you get to fly and race and travel to all different islands. But when it comes to the races it’s not always fun because your running against COMPUTERS. The odds are not in your favor. There is no luck it’s you racing against computers. So yes I love this game I’m addicted to it because it’s so fun and you want to win the race so you go over and over again, but eventually it gets so frustrating because you just can’t win and if you don’t get a fish you can’t move on to the next island, and if you can’t do that you can’t keep moving on with the game. So please unless you want to get frustrated ALOT don’t get this game. I’m sorry tiny wings but it’s just to much. Tiny wings creator if your seeing this improve your game by making the people be able to move on even if they don’t get a fish do something to make them be able to move on. Thank you in advance, love your game but it gets frustrating.
