If you haven’t played Tiny Tower yet, it’s the new iOS game with 8-bit graphics that’s all the rage at the moment and BitBook is an in-game status update service for the residents (known as Bitizens) of Tiny Tower. Anyway, my bitizens occasionally post some updates that are pure genius! Here are some of my favourites:
- I used up all my sick days, so I’m calling in dead. – Stacey Austin
- Clones are people two. – Sylvia Morales
- If I’m not back in five minutes… wait longer! – G Weaver
- If you see gum on the floor, leave it there. It isn’t free candy. – Jesus Phillips
- When the moon hits your eye that is 1 pixel wide, it’s amore! – Calvin McCoy
- Out of my mind. Back in five minutes. – Julio Silva
- A life? Cool! Where do I download one of those? – D. Franklin
- How many bits would a bitizen byte if a bitizen could byte bits? – G Weaver
- Sometimes I wish I had more resolution. -Emily Sutton
- I know I’m paranoid, but am I paranoid enough? – Misty Obrien

- Sorry I’m late, I’ll leave early to make up for it. – Renee Medina
- I live life by some simple rules: walk around, yawn and blink. – Bernard Diaz
- Scientists have discovered sub-pixels! Mind-Boggling! – Victor Gardner
- Never, ever make absolute, unconditional statements. – D Montgomery
- I love LAMP. – Carlos Stewart
When I first picked up Tiny Tower from the app store, I must admit it came across as a bit of a pointless game that just gets you to do repetitive tasks like operate the elevator for the bitizens and stock up the stores every 5 minutes. But having played it for a while, the BitBook status updates on their own is a fun enough reason to play the game! I now see it more as a game to fill small slots of time through the day; the kind of game you’d play while waiting for the train or in the queue at the supermarket. Did I mention there’s an Apple Mapple Store?
There’s even a store that sells LOLs, LMAOs and ROFLs!
Check it out on the app store and if you’re on game center, my handle is ash.matadeen Friend me up!
