Over the past week, I’ve become obsessed with Tiny Tower. The premise is simple: create an ever-growing skyscraper with varying floors, equal parts business and residential, that generate money when the building’s occupants are optimally maintaining said floors. Essentially, the main goal is total Authoritarian control. And that’s it! Sounds monotonous, right? Try ridiculously addictive. I have never come across a gaming stronghold quite like this before. I play this game while I’m walking on the street, when I’m on the subway train, and at the dinner table. I check to see that my stores are fully stocked just before I fall asleep at night and first thing when I wake up in the morning. I have ignored loved ones while watching Bitizens pace aimlessly and I have forgotten obligations amidst maximizing the use of my VIPs. I’ve even googled it — searching for tips, scouring this wiki site and that wiki site, and checking the latest statistics. Hell, I’m playing it RIGHT NOW.
If you play, you understand (and likely share) this addiction. But if you don’t, I’ll try my best to explain myself. Here are my Top Three Reasons Why I Love Tiny Tower
