Celebrate Lunar New Year with firecracker dragons, lucky oranges and your mum as the hero. Your mum will pretend she doesn’t know how to play it. Then she’ll top the leaderboard by Tuesday.
Our pick: flappy flyer with the Lunar New Year theme. Your mum dodges firecracker dragons, grabs red envelopes and oranges, and the game finishes with a group hug ending carrying your own message. Every line is pre-written and funny out of the box, and you can change any of it.
