According to reports, Apple has prevented Flappy Bird Game creator Dong Nguyen from claiming the title of his own game.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Dong had said he would consider bringing his game back with a warning about the 'addictive' nature of the game.

However, it seems Dong will have a difficult time putting the same name back on the app store.

A clause in Apple's developer agreement says, ""If you delete your app, you can't restore it," reads Apple's developer documentation. "The SKU or app name can't be reused in the same organization," venturebeat.com reports.

Although Google Play does not have the same clause, gamesbeat reported "Apple's TOS agreement indicates that Nguyen forfeited the right to the Flappy Bird name on iOS along with all of the ad revenue (which some estimates put as high as $50,000 a day). Even if he had full claim to the copyright, he couldn't reuse Flappy Bird now that he has deleted it as per the agreement he made with Apple."

To make things worse for Nguyen, "Mobile Media Partners, which is a developer that released Crashy Bird and the mobile marketing game Winsomething, locked up the "Flappy Bird" name on iOS for its own use two hours after Nguyen deleted the original. Mobile Media Partners says it has plans for the title, and it already has a trademark pending. If Nguyen had a trademark, he could sue the developer to stop it from releasing the game, but Apple would still block him from using it again himself," cited an online report.

Even if Dong brings back his game with a new name, he will lost the 50 million loyal fans who have downloaded the original Flappy Bird.
