Built by mobile developer Nimblebit, the creator of the Tiny Tower game, Star Wars: Tiny Death Star puts you in charge of a huge space station that you can build out and then use against planets that are friendly to the Rebel Alliance. The alliance between Disney and Nimblebit is reminiscent of Disney’s collaboration with Imangi Entertainment, which built the Temple Run games.
