## What is Tower Handler?

Run the tower at real airports.

Every runway, taxiway and gate is built from real map data — LaGuardia, JFK and Newark rebuilt as living pixel-art miniatures, from the terminals down to the taxiway signs. Planes keep calling in. You decide who lands, who waits, who crosses the runway and who takes off next.

SHORT, TENSE SHIFTS
Each shift is five to eight minutes: a morning bank, an evening thunderstorm, fog rolling off the bay, a wind shift that flips the whole airport around, a MAYDAY on final.

REAL AIRPORTS ARE THE PUZZLE
• LaGuardia: two crossing runways — release a takeoff the moment a landing rolls past the intersection
• JFK: two pairs of parallel runways, widebodies and heavy wake turbulence
• Newark: arrivals crossing the departure runway, a hub connection bank and runway 11 crossing 22R

EASY TO PICK UP
Clear to land, approve pushbacks, draw or pick a taxi route, clear runway crossings and takeoffs. A guided training airport teaches everything one step at a time.

A LIVING MINIATURE
Day and night, rain and fog, runway and taxiway lights, pushback tugs and fire trucks, radio calls with real phraseology. Climb the tower, pick a viewpoint, take photos — or sit back in spotter mode and watch the airport run itself.

• Free: the training airport and all 8 LaGuardia shifts
• One purchase unlocks JFK and Newark — no ads, no subscriptions
• Collect aircraft types, airlines and rare liveries; design your own livery
• English and Simplified Chinese
