VGUtopia writes, "Starting up Pocket Planes felt a bit like visiting an old friend. For those of you unacquainted I have a long history of Nimblebit games, starting with Pocket Frogs. However, my affection for Nimblebit really took off with the release of last year’s freemium hit: Tiny Tower. In it I managed to get into the top 80,000 players out of 4.5 million. It was with Tiny Tower that I fell in love with the pixelated people and their lives via BitBook. Admittedly when I first started Pocket Planes, I was a bit skeptical. I wasn’t sure what to expect, I mean after all what more could I want after becoming the tallest tower in my “city”? My answer became clear; I would no longer be in charge of towers but entire cities. I would be flying high above the “Tiny Towers” in an effort to spread my kingdom not only across a city, but through the entire world."
Chris Buffa (Modojo): Here we are, the best iOS games of the year. We started with a list of 200, whittled that down to about 100, then the gloves came off, as we fought to include certain titles and said painful goodbyes to others. The result is a snapshot of 2012, the 50 iPhone and iPad games that stood out the most. That said, join us each day as we make the countdown. On that note, it's time for games 30-21.
"NimbleBit has just slashed the in-app purchases for Tiny Tower, Pocket Planes, and Pocket Frogs by 50 percent until this Sunday. That means users have the ability to buy some extra coins or bucks to grow their plane and skyscraper empire at half the usual rate." - Charles Ferrendelli
