You’re not wrong, but it was also kind of a cultural moment and it’s weird that it was disappeared entirely. Most games like that have long tails of focus creep, neglect, crapware, or irrelevance, but Flappy Bird went out with a pop.

Because it should have NEVER BEEN a pop in the first place. It didn’t go anywhere because OP correctly points out, it was done long before. The fact that it went anywhere in the first place is just a testament to humanities mob mentality. We are very easily swayed.
