Sky Tower Tycoon
Build the tower, idly, in 2018: sapient.raven's Android tycoon, store-dead but press-kit-rich.
by sapient.raven · 2018 · Android (defunct)
Sky Tower Tycoon is sapient.raven's 2018 Android tower-building tycoon (idle.city.tycoon), delisted from Google Play (404 verified with and without region params, the thorough way) and absent from every mirror. What survives is remarkable: the developer's Google Sites page and its press kit are both live, and twenty-three press-kit images came home from them.
What it was
A mobile tower tycoon from the 2018 Android wave, with an unusually professional press kit for a solo Android title: twenty-three magic-byte-verified images, each sidecarred with source, copyright and editorial-use notes. The Google CDN fought back (403s to scripted fetches; browser-like headers and a retry pass got the rest), and the battle is documented in the research.
Disambiguation on record against PozziTiv4ik's Tower Tycoon and the Roblox Skyscraper Tycoon.
The verdict
A store-dead game with the catalog's richest surviving press kit: twenty-three images and a living developer page is a good afterlife.
