From SKYWORKS® and Garry Kitchen, the creators of the hit iPhone/iPod touch game ARCADE HOOPS BASKETBALL™, comes our most addictive game ever, SKYSCRAPERS™!
In this Action Puzzle game, players build Skyscrapers from the bottom up by aligning the building’s floors as they slide across the screen. The higher up you go, the faster the new floors come in. Bonuses are awarded for how accurate your timing is and how fast you complete the floors. The buildings may start small but in the higher levels they are soaring majestic Skyscrapers. Each time you complete a building it gets added to your “Cityscape View” that displays your progress as you try to complete the dramatic Skyline.
Designed by former Video Game Designer of the Year Garry Kitchen, a co-founder of SKYWORKS, and critically acclaimed Activision designer! Garry’s hits include major titles like “Space Jockey”, “Keystone Kapers”, “Garry Kitchen’s Gamemaker”, and the Atari home-version of “Donkey Kong”, to name just a few.
SKYSCRAPERS combines incredible architecture with unique fast-action game play to create our most addictive SKYWORKS’ title yet.
Other great features:
- CAREER MODE: Play through 12 buildings of increasing height and difficulty - QUICK PLAY MODE: Allows you to select and play the individual buildings you’ve completed in Career Mode - CITYSCAPE VIEW: Displays your city skyline featuring the buildings you’ve completed - SOUND and MUSIC volume controls - LOCAL HIGH SCORE BOARD - GLOBAL HIGH SCORE BOARD: compete against builders from all around the world
After you play SKYSCRAPERS, try other top selling SKYWORKS arcade-style games like WORLD CUP PING PONG™, ARCADE BOWLING™ and ARCADE HOOPS BASKETBALL, or puzzle/strategy games like MENTAL BLOCKS® or MATCH 3 POKER™. Or just search for “SKYWORKS” in the App Store search bar to find your favorite games, and have fun!

8 of 25I got up to level 8 it is a awsome game and I'm 8 so I'm working on getting all the level's AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really like this app
WOW CMON PPL BUY THIS APP!>:(
How can you have a game about skyscrapers without the burj khalafia? Also need ability to save rather than start over
This game is really addicting! Definately pick it up while it's free! I can't seem to out this game down, there's just something about it that has me playing it over and over again!! Totally worth more than 5 stars!! Great job!!!! Only thing I wish was added was have it be Open Feint enabled, more levels/skyscrapers, and the possibility to skip through the slow "congratulations! Skyscraper complete" screen
Nice game. Fun to pick up and play.
This game would be so much better if it had buildings from all over the world instead of mainly the US. Please think about including Burj Dubai, Petronas Towers, Shanghai World Financial Center, Jin Mao Tower, CN Tower, Eiffel Tower, Great Pyramid, Neuschwanstein, The Leaning Tower of Pisa, Big Ben, and so on. Also could include more US buildings like the Flatiron Building, the Freedom Tower concept, Statue of Liberty, Washington Memorial, or maybe even Frank Lloyd Wright's Mile High Tower Concept. Heck, while you're at it, you could do the taller of the Ancient Wonders like the Alexandria Lighthouse- use your imagination for details there! Or... the one you would need 200 levels for... MT. EVEREST!!!!! Anyway, this is a really addictive and fun game but it would benefit from more buildings!! Then, one more thing- career mode would be better if you didn't have to start over at the beginning each time. Even so, I think it deserves 5 stars as is.
I've played this game on my old iPod touch 3G 64GB, and it is wonderful. I know on an iPod touch 5G 64GB, and it lacks Retina Display updates, let alone full screen compatibility. It's been over 2 years since the app last updated. Skyworks, PLEASE, update your game.
