Who says that work and play don’t mix? Not us! Play Pocket Boss, the game where you handle lots of fun data and one not-so-fun boss. In Pocket Boss, you’re a remote employee working with business data to make your boss happy. And the boss needs so much done! Increase productivity, boost customer satisfaction, make losses disappear, erase competitors — all with just a swipe of your finger. As you solve ever-funkier data puzzles, your boss watches your progress closely, wondering if you’ve got what it takes to earn that promotion. Well, have you? – Fix puzzling charts and bend the trends. Make your company’s productivity, shareholder value, and customer trust shine — at least on paper. – Pie charts, bar charts, scatter plots: drag, pinch, pull and push all kinds of charts to make them behave while your boss pushes for results. – Chat with your boss. Yes, it can be awkward, and that’s funny – but what if it affects your promotion? – Solve the mysteries of equal pay.   Play time: 30–60 minutes Created by Mario von Rickenbach, based on an idea by Maja Gehrig, with sound by Luc Gut.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pocket Boss⁢ holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: cube farm has 547 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 91% of cube farm's written reviews are positive against 89% of Pocket Boss⁢'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

cube farm ships an update fortnightly, Pocket Boss⁢ every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
