How to Play Barter Bird

Barter Bird is designed to be simple to learn but tough to master. The objective is to guide your bird safely through gaps between pipes while collecting points for each successful pass. With quick reflexes, steady focus, and a little patience, anyone can play and improve over time.

Basic Controls

Each fly gives the bird a small boost upward. If you don’t tap, gravity pulls it down. Timing your flies to navigate the pipes' gaps is the key.

Scoring

You earn 1 point each time you successfully pass through a set of pipes. The game continues endlessly until you collide with a pipe or the ground. Your score is shown at the top, and your progress accumulates as Barter Bird Tokens.

Unique ID (UID) System

When you start, you’ll be asked for your name and email to create a Unique ID (UID). This UID tracks your progress and lifetime token balance across devices.

Barter Bird Tokens

Tokens accumulate over time, representing your lifetime score. For example, scoring 20 points in one game and 15 in another sums to 35 tokens.
