Like Pokémon Go, it was originally an April fool's joke, but it's not too hard to find out how to play it well. Earlier today, I had some free time and decided "I'm going to learn how to be good at Flippy bit!" I made a quizlet to learn the hexadecimal to binary conversion, and after half an hour, I got between 10 and 20 points every time. 😀😀😀 ### 5/5 — Love *2015-11-30, version 1.0* I found this game around April Fools day and was so happy to find it in the store. If your a developer or artist and want to learn I grain hex into your brain play this! ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2015-11-21, version 1.0* After learning how to quickly convert 4-bit binary I used this app to help me learn to quickly convert to hex. I was able to convert to hex with great speed in my recent exam. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — FlippySavage *2015-09-19, version 1.0* This game is so fresh yo, just look up lessons on how to do the hexadecimals and you'll be good 👌😏 ### 4/5 — Interesting experience *2014-11-19, version 1.0* I wanted to see how well I could learn how to play this game and bitshift, and at first I got frustrated by dying over and over as I tried to figure everything out. It became a lot of fun though once I knew what I was doing. It would be really cool if there was something where you could put in your age and compare how you did to people in your age group and people outside of it like the kids from the study. I'm curious to see if I (an adult) learned how to bitswitch as quickly as the kids did. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Garbage *2016-04-18, version 1.0* There are no instructions. Maybe it's good, but I have no idea how to play ### 2/5 — Confusing... *2014-11-01, version 1.0* If I understood what it was completely about that would be good but it is too weird for me. ### 3/5 — Super fun, bad performance *2025-05-21, version 2.0* This game is addicting, but it bogs down even on modern hardware. Any chance the developer is willing to figure out why it goes so slow with more than like 5 enemies on screen? ### 4/5 — Great Game! Just needs some TLC *2023-01-21, version 2.0* There are some micostutters which can be annoying and throw off your rhythm (iPhone 14 Pro MAX). It’s a great way to learn otherwise. Suggestion to maybe add a quick pop up or mini tutorial to remind folks how hex to binary works. I had to google to refresh my memory since I was barely getting 1 each try. ### 4/5 — One bug that ruins the game *2022-11-02, version 2.0* the game works well and is fun to play but at random times the game will just freeze and not work. the rockets that show up when you a button hover up and down, but everything else is frozen in place ### 4/5 — Great game but buggy *2022-04-06, version 2.0* Lots of fun (I played in my browser). However, there is a game breaking bug I’m experiencing that causes it to crash often. I know the devs probably won’t see this, and if they do they won’t fix the problem because they have better things to do, but anyone who wants to play I suggest you just use your browser! Thanks for your time :) ### 4/5 — Great concept, but it hangs *2022-04-06, version 2.0* I would play this all day if it didn’t hang every couple of rounds. Please fix it! ### 4/5 — Needs update *2017-11-06, version 1.0* I love this game, but it doesn’t work on iOS 11. Please fix that ### 4/5 — It's too nerdy for you *2017-04-11, version 1.0* Fun but unfinished. There's too much lag between getting the bit and launching the missile. There should be a free play mode. The buttons are a little slow to respond sometimes. I hope they make an update in the future. The object of the game is to make the 8-bit binary number that corresponds to the 2 digit hexadecimal number on the back of the bad guys. ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2016-04-30, version 1.0* I downloaded this app so I could learn hex better. It did the trick, but I found out how addictive flippy bit is. My annoyances are, not being able to flip two or more bits concurrently. I play it two handed, come on, let me type in both numbers at the same time. Second, the missiles take way too long to fire. The animation is annoyingly long and I keep watching myself get a game over even though I typed in the correct value. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-11-26, version 2.0* Counting in binary has never been so fun! This game is a perfect 0000-0101! ### 5/5 — Not Working on my IPad *2023-12-08, version 2.0* Love this game. Works perfect on my IPhone but my IPad has stuttering and only the first bit calculates. Pressing any others causes Flippy and all numerical values to disappear. Super fun and addictive. ### 5/5 — A simple yet fun game *2023-08-14, version 2.0* What more is there to say? I love playing this game. It’s a great way to kill time or to just have fun. ### 5/5 — Great for binary lovers! *2023-01-19, version 2.0* A thrilling and fun game! Great for binary lovers 01100111 01100101 01110100 00100000 01101001 01110100 00100000 01101110 01101111 01110111! ### 5/5 — Best game evaaaaaaaa *2023-01-19, version 2.0* Literally the best game to play with friends ### 5/5 — SAMPLE TITLE *2022-05-19* No longer crashes (I don’t know how to edit) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2020-07-28, version 1.0* Long live Flippy Bit !!! ### 5/5 — Needs update!! *2017-10-16, version 1.0* This game is awesomely amazing and I’d like to see and iOS 11 version of it please!! ### 5/5 — Just do it. *2017-09-19, version 1.0* Basically this is the reason I passed my Cisco Networking classes. ### 5/5 — If you don't understand it it isn't the games fault *2017-09-08, version 1.0* I love this game. It is addictive and fun, but some people don't understand it. That does not mean that it isn't good. So don't give it a bad review. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
