Hate Flappy Bird? Play these brutally difficult games instead

Tell me if this sound familiar: Everybody you know is talking about Flappy Bird, so you gave it a download. Two minutes later, you erased it from your phone (along with the contact information of everybody you know who recommended the damned thing).

You like a good challenge, but you’d prefer something with a little more polish. A little more substance. Something that you’d be proud recommending, but at the same time, something that will kill you in seconds without hesitation. Something that keeps you coming back for more. Worried you won’t find anything that’s both difficult and divine? Don’t worry – we’ve got you covered.
