## Description

You are the tower. One thumb, one airport, everything moving at once.<br><br>■ Swipe, don&#39;t draw<br>Hold an arrival and carry your finger to the runway you want it on. That is the<br>clearance. The aircraft then flies itself onto that runway&#39;s approach procedure.<br>Dangerous clearances are colour-coded before you let go, so you can change your<br>mind while your finger is still down.<br><br>■ Takeoffs are a timing game<br>Swipe a departure from its gate to a runway to start taxiing. It will not launch<br>on its own. At the hold line, swipe it onto the runway again and it goes - so<br>pick your gap between arrivals.<br>Depart from the runway that matches its exit heading for a DIRECT! bonus.<br>Alternate a landing and a takeoff on the same runway for a RUNWAY FLOW bonus.<br><br>■ Never unwinnable, never easy<br>- Speed control (SLOW / NORM / FAST) lets you build your own in-trail spacing<br>- Let them bunch up and you get a spacing go-around. Out of options? DIVERT<br>- LAND BY slots, fuel states and emergencies keep changing what goes first<br>- 13 operational events: runway inspections, closures, wind shifts, rain cells,<br>  snow removal, bird activity, FOD, taxiway closures, priority flights and more.<br>  Every one of them is announced before it happens - nothing turns into an<br>  accident out of nowhere<br>- Night operations cut your visibility, and taxiway lights can fail<br><br>■ 26 airports, 1000 levels<br>From a two-runway training field to a mega hub built only for level 1000.<br>More runways, crossing runways, and wind that flips which direction is in use.<br>Every layout is original - no real-world airport is copied.<br><br>■ Modes<br>- PUZZLE: 18 handcrafted problems. Wrong order, no solution<br>- DAILY CHALLENGE: one shift a day, the same for everyone<br>- RUSH HOUR: how many aircraft can you clear in 90 seconds?<br>- WEEKLY CHALLENGE: a longer special shift, new every week<br>- ENDLESS: traffic keeps building. Go until it breaks<br>- FINAL SHIFT: the last shift of each airport - night, weather and inspections<br><br>■ Collect and progress<br>Controller Rank, 28 achievements, 14 badges, Airport Mastery and a world map.<br>An 8-category aircraft collection. Coins only buy looks (airport themes,<br>aircraft skins, towers, runway effects, trails) - never difficulty.<br><br>■ Also<br>- Plays offline (ads need a connection)<br>- English and Japanese<br>- Reduce Motion and small-screen support<br>- Stars: 1 for clearing, 2 for a clean shift, 3 for the bonus goal<br><br>This game is a work of fiction. It is not connected to any real airport,<br>airline, flight number or air traffic control service, and it is not intended<br>for real controller training.<br><br>Contains ads (rewarded video and interstitial) and in-app purchases<br>(ad removal, coin packs and cosmetic packs).
