It's easy to forget that, before the launch of Zynga's Dream Heights – and all the fallout that resulted – almost all of the press attention focused on NimbleBit's Tiny Tower simply detailed how well the title was doing.

Indeed, in the midst of the studio's tussle with Zynga, it's pleasing to report that Tiny Tower is still ticking over nicely, with the studio announcing the game has just passed 10 million downloads on iOS.

Virtual goods

In celebration, NimbleBit co-founder has revealed the studio is in the process of a virtual currency giveaway.

"To celebrate Tiny Tower reaching 10 million iOS downloads we're giving away over 10 million Tower Bux to players," said Marsh in a tweet. "Log in today."

Given Tiny Tower launched on iOS in June, that means the game is clocking up an average of around 1.25 million downloads a month.

Back in January, NimbleBit claimed the game was attracting 1 million daily active users, all amassing a total of 10 million play sessions a day.
