    This is a weird bug. So I tried skipping the Vader quest. I have 3 Bux and the quest allows you to skip for the same amount but the game responds saying I don't have enough Bux. That's something to fix in the next update. Also, making Bux easier together would be helpful as well.

    what happens when it's released in our local app store then? does the game save sync or what? i'm sure it used to be held on a server somewhere.

    i like that game, although it crashes almost every time i go back into the game and try lifting a bitizen to a level. quite frustrating as you usually lose progress

    I suggest not skipping any imperial level quests. There are a limited number of them. I think I only finished 4 or 5 and skipped 1 or 2. Now it says "You've done all the quests".

    The payout for these quests was pretty good so I prioritized building imperial levels. Now I have 6 useless levels which have raised my new level cost, but don't earn me any coin. I assume there will be more in updates, so I'll start stock piling.

    One question I have is about the question mark elevator characters.
    As far as I can tell the only difference is that they sometimes go to imperial levels and occasionally trigger a scene. It that all there is to them? Seems pretty weak.

    I'm on the mission "According to my design, you must build 2 IMPERIAL level(s)". I built them. Then I started up the game after they were finished and it crashed almost immediately. When I started it again I didn't get credit for the mission :(. I guess that's as far as my missions go until it is fixed. I guess I could try building two more imperial levels to make sure...

    Oh - and I now have 8 imperial levels - no Communications level yet lol.

    Edit: haha I started building 2 more Imperial. That makes 10/16 and still no Communications.

    Is this a game 10 yr old will like? My son loves Star Wars so I was going to get it for him once it is released. We have never played Tiny Tower. The game just didn't look fun to me. Judging by its popularity I guess I could have been wrong. :)

    Wow!! Really pissed off with this... I started up the app today and it didn't show the part that tells you how much you've made while away, so I thought that was a little odd....then I noticed that the bloody game had sent me back to where I was about 3-4 days ago!! :(

    If he gets the basic mechanics and how you restock / populate floors, then he should enjoy it. The little events and recognizable characters give it a nice feel.
    My local 10 year old loves to watch me play and played Tiny Tower a while ago, too.

    I am having trouble seeing the point of the missions. I have been following them quite closely in my choices of floors to build. They seem pretty random and are not helping to build a balanced set of floors. The reward is also minuscule. In 47 floors, I have only 3 food (he never asked for food) and 7 service and I am short on people. Now he wants me to build 2 more service. I think I will ignore his instructions for a while.

    I also don't see the point of the missions. It's not as if they are an indicator of what should be built next. They don't even provide a story line or a goal to work towards. I've now decided to ignore them unless they just happen to coincide with the levels I'm building.

    I'm playing on an ipad3 running ios6 and I'm having a lot of trouble playing due to constant lagging where approximately every 10 seconds the game will freeze and pause for a second or so. Menus transition very slowly as well. I've tried removing game from memory and rebooting the ipad. This has not helped with the problem. Is anyone else having similar issues?

    Yep I'm using an ipad2 with ios7 and have similar issues. It's jerky like you describe (especially after a celebrity is used), slow and laggy. I wish I could turn off the UI animations to speed it up a bit. It also crashes often immediately after launch. Occasionally crashes after a long session of play.
