Don Nguyen took his Flappy Bird game offline on February 8th, saying it's too addictive, alluding to causing behavioral problems among gamers who play the game.

Mr. Nguyen from Vietnam took down the Flappy Bird which reeled in a whopping $50000 a day and online gamers can't understnd why he did that. He removed it from the App Store, Play Store for iOS and Android.

Despite warnings from Google and Apple that clones of the original game will be taken down, it's a safe assumption to make that there are too many Flappy Bird clones to track them down. So, maybe Apple and Google are just closing their eyes for a while.

No doubt, everyone is watching to see how popular this game can really get.

Since app stores say that clones are considered spam, imitating the Don Nguyen version, hundreds of Flappy Bird clones have surfaced and they mimic everything from the Sesame Street styles to a pink quail that flies over stumps instead of a bird.

Reports say that clones represented a third of new game uploads by the end of February, which also means a lot of people were 'addicted' to the game, as Dong had warned.

Would you believe, there are YouTube hacks that teach users to play continuously and get maximum scores with little jailbreak and cydia tweaks? If not reade this. There are also cheat codes where you can download the Flappy Bird game for free and by activating a cheat you can play an unlimited number of times and obtain unlimited scoreing as well.

Zedge, an app that monitors data from Google's Play Store, there are approximately 864 Flappy Bird clones available on the Play Store since Feb.24. At its peak, there are as many as 70 Flappy Bird clones introduced every 24 hours and 37 were launched the day Mr. Nguyen took down his version of the game.
