The idea of the game is simple: You are building your dream skyscraper, developing businesses with it, earning profit, and competing with other players. Sounds great, but what if you think one skyscraper isn't enough? You're in luck! The developers have got you covered—more ambitious players can create their own cities and invite other players to live there and make theirs the greatest city ever. Want to know whose city is the snazziest? Check the best city rating. If you rank high enough, that will prove to everyone that you've got real business acumen and your city is the cream of the crop. Game features: • PLAY FOR FREE • BUILD the highest skyscraper to be the crown jewel of your city and earn you millions • ORGANIZE your enterprise however you like on every level of the skyscraper. Choose for yourself: Do you want coffee shops, beauty salons, maybe a barber shop or a tailor? • MANAGE your staff. Hire and fire workers, and find everyone's dream jobs, buy goods, and collect the proceeds • CREATE your very own city, become its mayor, and invite your friends to live in it and build a business empire together • ASSEMBLE a complete collection of stars and celebrities to visit your skyscraper and give you a real leg up on other businesses • EXPLORE a labyrinth in search of untold treasure • INTERACT using the chat, and make new friends Gameplay: The game sucks you in from the very first minute. When you enter the game, you are met by a small building of several floors with a few residents. They are dying to work, but pay close attention to them—each one has different preferences. Keep an eye on the elevator. Your skyscraper will occasionally be visited by clients with a VIP status, and their visits will make your wallet a bit thicker! There is also an entire floor of the skyscraper just for celebrities. The more of them who come there, the better your city's reputation will be. Earn your first profits and begin building new levels and opening stores, bars, salons, and shops. If your skyscraper reaches 10 levels, and you still want to do more—welcome to the city. You can ask to join someone else's or you can make your own and be its mayor. Invite other players to your city and work together to improve it. To make construction and development even more interesting, the game includes a general rating system. Do you have the best skyscraper out there? Then you win the gold medal! Is life in your city so amazing that the population is huge and your coffers are overflowing? You're on top of the world, and the other players will know all about it! No time to come and collect your profit? Overmobile has you taken care of; hire a personal manager who can look after things in your absence. Bonuses: The game has two kinds of daily tasks: special and city. When you complete them, you get cool bonuses that will help your business grow. Like keys to the labyrinth. If you open all 10 doors of the labyrinth and never hit a dead end, you'll get a spectacular reward: a chest full of gamer's treasure—gold coins, bucks, and other cool stuff you can use to expand your business. The developers frequently surprise the players with deals and events that make in-game coins and skyscraper and city upgrades a real bargain. Want to consult with more experienced entrepreneurs? Join the chat right in the game and talk with the whole game world. Pocket Tower will whisk you away from the drudgery of everyday life and immerse you in a thrilling world of business and economics, with stunning graphics, realistic interiors, and with a city and characters waiting just for you. Your childhood dreams come true! Build your own skyscraper and show the world that you are the best of the best!
