Flappy Bird was pulled from both the Apple App Store and Google Play in February 2014 as its creator, Dong Nguyen, blamed himself for the game’s addictive nature and didn’t appreciate the fame the title’s worldwide success brought him along with allegations that he stole art and character designs from Nintendo.
