SkyHeart Tower is a Simulation game from SkyHeart Ventures LLC, first launched in 22nd October 2019.
It’s rated 4+ and currently has 51+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes SkyHeart Tower Stand Out
SkyHeart Tower is where realism meets fun. This game puts you in control of one of America's busiest airports. As an air traffic controller you are tasked with the responsibility of controlling over 100 gates and 3 busy runways. We aim to replicate the real world operations of EWR, and with confidence, we can say we have done so with over 90% being replicated in the game.
Features include:
-winter ops
-aircraft deicing
-holdover times
-runway snow plowing
-EDCT's- Expected departure clearance times
-real world taxi routes
-holding points
-runway inspections
-super-tug relocation ops
- multiple camera views
-parallel and intersecting runway ops
-Circle to land ops
You can adjust arrival rates to match your expertise level and then increase it to challenge yourself towards become a true expert air traffic controller.
Created by a real world airline pilot, so expect the best!
This Simulation game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
Its a fun game but we want that when you are going to start playing we want that you can pick any airport like JFK airport and let newark there its our favorite airport and Newark is also like 10 minutes away from our house and we hear and see planes because the airport is close by its only 10 minutes away.
We absolutely love this game but we wish we could pay for an offline version of it. We would love to be able to play this on long car rides.
We love this game and we have been playing for years now, it would be awesome to see this get updated more frequently and new airports added in game. Overall this is an awesome game that we would recommend for anyone who is roughly interested in aviation.
This is an extraordinary game or should we say simulator? It properly simulates Newark airport with details even down to the intersection used for Runway 22R takeoffs. The only aspect that could be improved is the features available for purchase. It took us 3 months of playing the game almost daily for us to even unlock Terminal B which is $20,000! It would be a bit more exciting if the prices were a bit lower so the player could enjoy more a bit quicker.
Good game but it needs more stuff like weather make it night aswell more ground vehicles.
In our opinion it would be a full 5 stars if you could control the planes with your own voice like real air traffic controllers.
Great game. But, this game needs more airports (ex. JFK, LGA, LAX, SFO etc).
Basically doing ground and tower makes the game more complicated whats it should be . Also slow to advance to new gates, Hard to tell if a gate is occupied leads mode to give it a 3 start at this point, if few things improve will be 5 stars.
The ideal is quite good and it does simulated works of atc well. Though the interface is somehow not beautiful but its understandable for a starter. What is really annoying the ads. We understand your wish to make money while attracting new user with free app. But users wont be happy with being forced to wait when they click MOST buttons (in-game pause, exit game, start new game etc we havent tested your app completely tho, might be incorrect). Yes you can add ads to your app but dont be annoying.
Hello we hope the creators of the game see this we just started the game a couple days ago and it took 10 minutes for anything to happen can you please add modes to select how busy you want your airport to be. Thank you.
We downloaded and started playing this game and we were enjoying it, until we stopped receiving outbound flights at around the 10 min mark. We thought this was a fluke and restarted, only to have the same thing happen. Then we started going through the comments and noticed this has been an ongoing issue for over a YEAR now, and its interesting given outbound flights are the ONLY way to make money. Its like people release half baked games in order to earn ad revenue and try to trap you into paying real money for a broken game. Please fix this game or remove it form the App Store.
Can we please see many new airports like LAX, MCO or JFK and new planes…? Why not have A380s. Some new additions would be fantastic.
Te money funds need to go pls we need ads to be gone.
Update: Why did we lose all our purchases in game? We restored a saved game – still an issue? That is beyond aggravating and makes further play pointless, especially when theres an option to pay REAL $$$. Reduced to 1 star. Fix that issue and Ill return.
Great start to a cool game, needs more airports and more prance choices though. Gets boring after time.
The game is great and all but it would be better if you put realistic airliners and liveries into the game.
Very interesting and hands on. Always action on the ground and up in the air. Pros: Every taxiway, runway, gate and apron are exactly like Newark Engine start-up, shutdown, taxi and takeoff sounds Plenty of gates Many different models and liveries Wake turbulence separation Charts to help you Departure and approach patterns exactly like Newark Different runway configurations De-icing Cargo ops Controllable departure and arrival rates Cons (most will eventually be improved): Engine sound quality Airplane model accuracy and quality Fake liveries (like Canada for Air Canada and Unity for United) Terminal and scenery bad quality (will be improved) Steep learning curve (but manageable and fun!) Pros outweigh the cons, and it is improving. This will be a great game when it is ready. 10/10 recommended.
Hello. We were wondering if maybe you could add on sort of like an alert that planes are about to become stuck. This would help make sure you dont have to use the delete button should the occasion occur. We were also wondering if maybe you could cut down on the ads. We were playing the game for 15 minutes today and we got more than 7 ads.
Fairly intuitive, entertaining play. But…it needs some level balancing. You lose points if you look at it wrong, but hardly ever gain points at all. No matter how clean you play it. This makes the upgrades almost unattainable, especially with the long periods of little to no action. The delete option needs to be double confirmation, too. We have accidentally bumped it at least 3-4 times.
The game can be quite addicting but there are a lot of glitches. The worst are after trying to load a saved game when it wont give you incoming aircraft anymore and some that are on the ground are frozen (not moving or responding to any commands given to them). Its frustrating to not be able to pick up where you ,eft off and having to start all over.
Terrible ads. Too many. No instructions or walkthrough.
Its a fun game, can get addictive. The only issue is traffic flow, it hits all at once with multiple pushbacks, departures, and arrivals or your sitting there with nothing happening at all. On the birds eye view it can be very difficult to see smaller aircraft, adding an icon or something to help identify smaller aircraft would be great. Keep up the good work.
This game looks interesting but we cant even get it to load. We press new game, select the only airport open to us, and nothing happens. After a few seconds, game closes on us. Frustrating.
Can you guys please fix the glitch it closes out every time we do anything.
