A few weeks ago Nimblebit announced they were in the midst of creating a massive update for their mega-hit tower building game Tiny Tower (Free) in anticipation of its 5-year anniversary. At that time they were seeking beta participants to try out the new update, and apparently that testing has gone well as today Nimblebit announced that the 5th Anniversary Edition of Tiny Tower will be available on May 26th. As mentioned before, this update will include improved visuals, streamlined tower manageent, tons of new missions and floors to build, and even the ability to share Bitizens between friends.

It’s crazy to think that it’s been almost 5 years since the original Tiny Tower launched. I have spent more time than I’d care to know building up towers and managing a community of Bitizens. However, with the original Tiny Tower, the sequel Tiny Tower Vegas (Free), and even the ill-fated Tiny Death Star, I always got to a point where I lost interest or my tower got so huge it became more of a chore to play. I’m hoping this injection of new content will reinvigorate my love for Tiny Tower. If you’re in the same boat or you simply missed the Tiny Tower phenomenon that began almost 5 years ago, then check out the 5th Anniversary Edition update on May 26th.
