Tower Bloxx New York

Tower Bloxx New York is centered on building towers block by block, in the most precarious way possible: by a swinging crane. Each block dangles from a crane arcing in an elliptical loop, and it's your job to tap the screen to get the block to fall as precisely as possible.

If you don't lay your blocks straight, the tower will begin to wobble, making the process even tougher. Your score is based on your residents' level of happiness, and getting blocks to land perfectly straight will give you a happiness multiplier. The more stable your tower, the happier your residents will be.

Even though tower building is the basic gameplay, the highlight is "Board Game" mode, which functions as a campaign, and tasks you with building entire city blocks full of residential towers, commercial towers, monuments, and skyscrapers. The SimCity-esque part comes in when you realize how each building relates to one another.

The goal is to gain maximum happiness from your tower residents, and naturally, people in residential towers like to have a commercial tower next to them. Who wouldn't like an Apple store or a Gamestop on their block? Building a residential tower might yield you 200 happiness, but having a well-built commercial tower adjacent to it will multiply its happiness by three. Deciding where to place your towers to gain maximum happiness is a crucial element for success.
