Cute cozy game
This game has been around for so long and I still love it to this day. Such a fun & chill game to wind down with.
Data Did Not Transfer
I recently purchased a new iPhone and thought that my Game Center data would sync or transfer over to my new iPhone. I feel silly for putting money into this game and nothing saved! :( I’d appreciate a refund.
more floors pleaseeeee
please make more of each floor of each type!! i beg
Bad VIP change
Worked great for many years until the recent change to the VIPs. I go from 80% gathered and easily half at multiple levels. To getting a bunch of keys for them that got me enough for 10-12 at level 1. Then I opened it on my second device and it wiped out those 10-12 and gave me enough keys for 1 VIP. Very not cool.
Tiny tower events are kinda buns now
K nimblebit pls put more effort into the events like for this summer event u collect beach balls monthly rewards and that’s it except for the wheel it’s in every event and nimblebit you might be burned out of tiny tower but please there are still ppl who play
VERY FUN
I love this game. It’s so underrated. I Iove how you get to customize each floor and character! I get to make my tower fit my aesthetic
ADS DONT HAVE EXIT BUTTONS
dont watch any ads for rewards they never let you leave the ad and dont give you your reward most of the time 🤦
Return player!
I played this game faithfully back in high school. Many years later as an adult i am back!! I missed it
Ugly - American flag thumb image
Deleted app after they updated the thumb image to American flag. Not going to keep that on my phone.
Unbelievably slow
The game has an excellent shell but everything takes so long.
Love it!
I loved playing this game as a kid and playing it more as an adult is still super fun. I appreciate the ability to listen to ads for rewards while still being able to play the actual game, it’s one of my favorite features. I love the classic gameplay of Tiny Tower as well as everything else NimbleBit puts out, I couldn’t be happier to support a mobile game :)
Slow updates
This used to be nice and entertaining. Now it’s just a very boring game. No new updates lately. I’m not wasting any money to purchase anything from this game.
A pleasant waste of time
A game that never really ends, but is a nice diversion ever now and then. If you’re patient, you shouldn’t have to buy anything.
I've been playing for years...
I just updated this game from whatever the last update for iPadOS 14 was, this game is riddled with ads now. I went to bed and the price for anew floor went from 420K to 682k, I don't know who bought out nimblebit to stay relevant but I can say that I only played this latest release for all of 1 minute because of this.
Awesome game plagued with ads
I wanna start this off by saying the gameplay itself is great, quite and enjoyable and chill gameplay loop and lots of customization and decent sense of progression, but thats when you’re actually playing the game. The majority of the gameplay is just ads, and this is coming from someone who paid for an in-game purchase that claimed to remove ads. Every other parachute guy prompts you with an ad, even with video ads turned off. Audio ad balloons float up, you can watch ads for vip, you can watch ads for chests, ads for dice rolls, ads for random stuff, it’s just ads ads ads… I understand companies need to make money, I have no problem supporting companies who deserve it, like I said I’m a paying customer, but the gameplay suffers massively for me from the amount of ads they shove down your throat. Without the ability to completely disable ads I cannot really recommend this game, despite the gameplay being fun. I paid under the assumption I could play without constant ad pop ups, but I feel cheated. TL:DR good game but greedy company and too many pop-up ads that seemingly have no way to be removed drastically taking from the gameplay experience. Wish I could give this game review.
classic
loved this game for years and it’s in my regular mobile game cycle. you can get so creative with what universe you want to build. it’s awesome
Older devices
I’ve played for 12 years and sadly cannot visit some of my friends because my device is too old for an update. Wish y’all could fix this :/ its such a simple game, what could possibly not run on the iPhone 7???
More
You need to make more business floors. I cannot make my tower taller without more business floors. Thank you in advance.
Too many balloon guys/ad opportunities.
I remembered playing this game years ago so I was so excited when I found it again on the App Store. It’s still a fairly fun game, but I uninstalled it because of all the ads. You’re almost constantly bombarded with guys on balloons floating from top to bottom of your screen. Sometimes it’s two at once. I’m not even kidding, it’s about 30 seconds or less after one disappears that another one comes. You don’t have to click them of course but they just became too annoying for me to ignore.
Left Side of the Screen is a MESS!
The entire left side of my screen while playing tiny tower is FILLED with interactive windows that take me to other screens! They cover almost the entire elevator shaft and it’s just too cluttered! Other than that I like this game.
The best game
I told my class that I thought it was a great way for financial life
Used to love- now unplayable ad trash- not even a game anymore
I used to love this idle game that you could easily check in and out of throughout the day to check on your tower. I left for a few years and recently redownloaded only to find every tiny thing has been fully monetized by requiring you to view a long, intrusive, screen freezing add. Every few seconds a guy floats down or up your screen offering you coins or bux for viewing an add or even worse, listening to an add in which the game FORCES you to unmute your phone and listen for the reward. Almost every single action has the option of watching an add in order to increase your money/speed/ect. The entire game has been re-adjusted so that the amounts of coins/ bux earned through just normal gameplay is GROSSLY inadequate if you want to move forward at all in the game without literally waiting weeks to accumulate the money needed to advance floors. The only way to move forward is to CONSTANTLY be watching the same terrible adds over and over and over. And the adds themselves are awful. Some lasting 3 to 5 MINUTES long just repeating the same terrible ai generated slop over and over until it will finally let you click to another page to wait AGAIN for the exit button. This isn’t even a game any more, it’s a sit there and watch adds and generate add view money for the creator. 0 stars. Creators greed has fully destroyed any playability.
Good game, held up well over the years
Game is good, played it a few years back and it’s still relatively the same, not a whole lot of ads and they’re optional (much better than shoving ads in your face like most other games do nowadays).
Progress from 3 years wiped
I installed the game after 3 years of inactivity on new phone, clicked activate in cloud, entered original email, etc, but just synced email to the new account instead. I used to be at 80 level tower, 2 gold tickets.
Great for a while then dies
Once you max out everything there’s nothing left to do but farm tickets. Please add more content!
IMPOSSIBLE TO STOP PLAYING
WAY TO GOOD AND CANT STOP NO MATTER WHAT I CANT SLEEP OR EAT HELPP ITS TO GOOOOOOD OF A GAMEEEEE!!!!
More Ad than game
I understand the need for ads, but they make it unplayable compared to the original. Ads in your face constantly. Don’t waste your time on this.
Great game
Love this game! I’ve been playing on and off for a few years, and the only criticism I have is they haven’t added many new bitizen customizations. The ones they have added aren’t anything realistic (ones like a candy cane or apple pie). It would be nice if they added some that fit the commercial floors types (volleyball & hockey players, artist, gamer, bowler, tailor, singer, gardener, gym goer, etc.).
Ads galore!
This game has turned into an ad farm. Was great 5 years ago. Very sad.
Played for years. Not as fun as when it started.
This is was a fun game. When I started it was possible to advance without spending a lot of money. Now there are special events that offer little reward or cost a lot to succeed. The best add on is now about $15. So plan to spend that much to play and enjoy. I’m going to stop playing because I have achieved what I want and the special events are all dissatisfying.
An OG classic
I loved this game 10 years ago and I still love it now. This game respects your time, yes, it has ads but you don’t need to watch any of them. You have a few minutes before restocking a floor? Watch an ad and get some coins or cash (used for upgrades or building new floors). GG devs, great little game 😎
Purchase or watch ad
Game tried to get you to watch 1+ ads at every turn. Or make absurd purchases which don’t go far. By the time you get to level 15 the cash accumulation becomes so slow it takes half a day. Horrible cash grab game.
Meh
It’s good but nothing will beat tiny Death Star bring it back please for the OGz
Give up
I have played this game for probably 15-17 years but had to step away from it recently. All I’m doing is waiting for adds to finish playing. I love the actual game but now I’m just playing an ad game. It seems like every 6 months a new add is installed in the game. NOT FOR ME. Shame on you
Ads ads ads!
I love this game, have played it on and off for many years, love how easy they’ve made it to get certain currencies, but HOLY ADS. You don’t NEED to watch them, but when you decide to, they’re EVERYWHERE. They aren’t even the easy ones that you just have to watch, I think some of them require interaction in order to close, and them some of them have multiple ‘x’ buttons you have to wait for. I get the purpose of them, but just, sheesh
Towering over the competition
My girlfriend suggested I play this game with her so we could be “neighbors” and I became hopelessly addicted to it. I am also a little OCD, so the game calms me down as each person is banned and dressed a specific way. My girlfriend is good at the game, but I’m better 😂
We need more floors
I’ve been playing for years and really love the game but for the love of god, ADD MORE FLOORS instead of boring events.
This game is awesome
Been playing this game for years. So nostalgic for me now, and still always fun to come back to! TINY TOWER FOREVA
Greed
This game was so good a while back. But now, it’s plagued with in-app purchases, begging for ads, and it’s simplicity is gone (which used to be what made this game good). And you have to pay for the original, better version!
decent but used to be way better
i swear back in the day it was peak cus there were no ads and i swear restocking floors was free theres a bunch of stuff they try to shove down your throat to pay but you can still play w/o it
I love Tiny Towers
I love Tiny Towers
Pop ups and over 60 second ads for almost useless items
Always enjoyed the game I’ve deleted and come back many times but the amount of ways you try to make the user pay for is ridiculous and can’t even close the ads when they give the to you 60+ seconds of ads then have to close the app to be able to play the game
Good but ads too long
It’s good, I used to play this on my ipod touch, and I’ve had it on every phone I've ever owned since! But when you want to collect a reward by watching an ad, the ads are now 60-90 seconds long instead of 15-30! I really want to support you guys and watch the ads, but they’re so long that they’re not even worth the reward sometimes. The capitalism is real. It’s really frustrating. Why aren’t 30 second ads enough? :/
Frame rate
I remember why I stopped playing this game before; it absolutely drains your battery and for some reason struggles with framerate issues constantly even though it’s a pixel game. And now it has loot boxes.
Fun but broken
Recent updates have made the game quite laggy/choppy. Why is that? On a brand new phone too…
Aaamazing
This game is so good. I used to play this game but like honestly it’s a five star game.
Fix glitches
Constantly freezing
Pretty good I’ve been playing for a while but I think something is broken
It says in the tech tree you get 10% more coins for each floor adjacent of the same type, and whenever I do that for the entire tower, the coins per minute always stays the exact same, I have the entire tech tree maxed so I don’t really get this option unless it’s broken
Worst update
The chests update just ruined this game. I used to love how clean this game is, they are not like a game, but some real little guy in the tower. Now this legendary lounge make it no different to other games, it keeps reminding me to spend money. I guess I’m not the target user of this game anymore.
Downgraded into adslop
This game has completely optional marketing, which is cool, but the in-game rewards for watching ads, etc. is ENDLESS and at least triples your production. It was a lot more tame before, but even the classic version of Tiny Tower is 13$ soo... Aside from that, good mobile game, good for both idling and actively playing. Was 5⭐️ before over-marketing, now 3⭐️.
