Flappy Kuruvi is our Tamil twist on the classic flappy bird style game. Kuruvi means sparrow in Tamil, and in this game you help a brave little sparrow fly through gaps between temple pillars. Tap to flap, keep the kuruvi in the air, and see how far you can go.
It is one-touch simple and very hard to put down. Every round is short, so it is perfect for a quick break. Play free in your browser, on your phone or computer, with no sign-up. Want another reflex game? Try Snake.
How to play Flappy Kuruvi

- Each set of pillars you pass adds one point.

Tips to score higher
- Use short, steady taps instead of many quick ones.
- Aim to keep the kuruvi in the middle of each gap.
- Look ahead to the next gap, not just the one in front of you.
- Find a calm rhythm – panic tapping is the fastest way to crash.
