Been playing nimblebit games since my first gen iPod touch, Pocket frogs and Tiny Tower, been playing this as long as I can remember. Still can play offline after many years! even after multiple device transfers. I would love to see a pc Google store integration for all their games so I can play them all my favorites at once. Bux is pretty easy to earn once you get it going. I'm level 19 with more than a thousand bux waiting from collecting VIP and earning for the next planes.

I do like this game, and watching ads does give small bonuses, but the ads themselves are horrible. They constantly open apps, open the app store, stop showing progress, randomly pause the progress, make you watch more than the 1 or 2 ads it's supposed to play, and the exit button for the is so small and shoved into the corner that I can't click on it with my phone (pixel) because it's not cropped to my screen correctly. I've even had it tell me I've received my reward but refuse to close the ad

This may be the greatest mobile game ever created! Seriously, just read some of the other reviews and how excited people are that this finally made it over to Android. I previously played many hours of this on iOS, but was sad to discover it missing from the Play store. Now, it's here, and it's exactly the same as I remember it! It's fun to build your own little airline empire, and the semi-idle factor means you can play for as little or as long as you want at a time. Thanks, Nimblebit!
