More than 10,000 players are building their dream towers in HappyTowers. Join a lively online world where one empty floor can become a home, a shop, or the start of a city landmark.

Every new floor changes the rhythm of your city — and every business needs the right people to make it flourish. Residents have their own talents and preferences. Match employees to the work they do best, improve sales, collect income, and keep your tenants happy. Coins and banknotes help you plan the next expansion, but smart choices matter just as much as resources. As your tower rises, so do the challenges. Balance income and expenses, decide which business to develop next, and turn a modest building into a thriving skyscraper. Start with one floor. Build without limits. Make it yours. An internet connection is required to play.
