It`s a fascinating word that you came up with, `brainwashed crowd`. Angry Bird`s popularity can be attributed to the following reasons:
-
1. It was being played by everyone so I thought, “Why is everyone playing it?”
2. Everyone was hooked and praised it like crazy.
3. It was so easy to learn how to play it that I didn`t even need to read it.
4. The story was easy to follow.
-
5. You felt a sense of accomplishment when you cleared a level with three stars.
6. It was easy (to clear the level) and hard (to get 3 stars).
7. You wanted to complete all levels with 3 stars because there were so many (like a novel that you don`t want the end of).
8. You will need to think of creative ways to get the level cleared.
9. Human psychology allows you to seek revenge on anyone who does you any harm.
These are all factors, along with simplicity and good design, that have made it a phenomenal success.
Marketing can be deceiving. But, as my friends shared above, to become addicted to something you need to do it again, you must have the cocaine.
