We Built a Game for iPhone Duo: Satoshi Flight Lets You Fly Through a Decade of Bitcoin History

Full disclosure up front: this one is ours. Satoshi Flight is an iPhone game built by Arnie Miranda, the person behind PCGeek. We built it for iPhone Duo, and it plays on any iPhone with iOS 17 or later. It is live on the App Store today, it is free to download, and this post is an announcement, not a review. We will tell you exactly what it is, what it costs and what it is not.

Download Satoshi Flight on the App Store (iPhone only, iOS 17.0 or later, 6.8 MB).

What it is

Satoshi Flight turns historical Bitcoin prices into a tap-to-fly arcade course. Tap to flap, let go to glide, and keep your bird between two glowing bands that follow the real price chart. Touch a band in a competitive flight and the run ends. Your score is the number of trading days you survive.

While you fly, the screen shows the date, that day’s closing price and where you are on the timeline. Real daily candlesticks show the open, high, low and close. Pause at any point to read about the milestone you just passed, with source links.

Built for iPhone Duo

We designed Satoshi Flight around Apple’s foldable. Closed, it plays as a portrait arcade game on the cover screen. Unfold the Duo and the layout adapts to the bigger screen, so you see more of the chart coming at you. The screens in this post were recorded on an iPhone Duo.

You do not need a Duo to play. The App Store listing says it requires iOS 17.0 or later and is iPhone only, so there is no iPad or Mac version.

Three ways to fly

• History: start with Bisq’s peer-to-peer trades in April 2016 and see how far you can go.
• Daily: one shared 120-trading-day course for everyone. It changes at midnight UTC.
• Zen: forgiving boundaries and no crashes, for when you just want to explore the chart.

History and Daily have optional world rankings through Apple Game Center. You can also keep your scores on your phone. The historical course works offline.

Seven birds, same physics

Magpie and Bald Eagle are included. Hummingbird, Moon Owl, Kingfisher, Phoenix and Guacamaya are optional one-time cosmetic purchases. Every bird has identical flight physics, so nobody buys a better score.

What it costs

• The game is free.
• The five premium birds are one-time purchases. There are no subscriptions.
• Occasional ads appear between competitive flights.

What it is not

This is an educational arcade game. It is not a trading app, a wallet or investment advice. The Bitcoin coins you collect are virtual game collectibles with no monetary value. They cannot be withdrawn or exchanged for real cryptocurrency. After a flight the game shows what your collected coins would hypothetically have been worth at that day’s close, and it labels the number as hypothetical.

The price data comes from published Bisq BTC/USD peer-to-peer trade statistics from April 2016 through October 26, 2026. Days with no reported trades are skipped. Bisq prices can include payment-method premiums and can differ from big exchanges, so this is one venue’s history and not a global price index.

On privacy: the App Store listing says the app may collect location, identifiers, usage data and diagnostics. Read the privacy section of the listing before you install, as you should with any app, ours included.

PCGeek’s take

We are biased, obviously. We made it. What we can say honestly is why: Bitcoin’s price chart is one of the wildest lines in tech, and flying through it one trading day at a time teaches the story better than staring at it. It is brand new, so it has no App Store ratings yet. If you try it, an honest rating helps, and bug reports help more.

How many trading days can you fly? Post your best run and tell us which bird you picked.
