Every version of Android has featured a variety of hidden treats and features, commonly called "Easter eggs." Android 5.0 Lollipop, which is due to arrive on devices in the coming weeks, might have the most ambitious Easter egg of all: it has a knock off of the Flappy Bird game accessible via a series of taps in the phone's settings menu. In place of the 8-bit bird and Mario Bros. pipes are the Android mascot and lollipop obstacles that you must avoid.
The Flappy Bird-like game is available on the developer preview of Android 5.0 Lollipop, as demonstrated in the video above by YouTuber Sam Nalty. There's no reason for us to suspect it won't be in the final version of the software however, so those with Nexus device will likely be able to get in on the flying Android mascot fun in the near future.
