Border Control Tycoon: Airport

Now arriving: you. Stamp passports, sniff out smugglers and keep the queue from boiling over in a cosy, chaotic airport tycoon and border control simulator.

Start at Bramblewick, a sleepy regional airport with one desk, £300 and a queue that never stops growing. Build desks and e-gates, hire officers, make the calls, and work your way up a career that runs across five cartoon border posts, all the way to the nation's busiest hub.

HOW TO PLAY • Build and hire: tap a green + to build a desk or an e-gate, then hire an officer. Faster officers cost more. • Keep it moving: long queues mean grumpy travellers and honking drivers. Tired officers slow down, so send them for a coffee. • Follow your hunch: when an officer has a funny feeling, read the clues on the passport, then search the bag or wave them through. • Earn your stars: hit the day's goals for stars, cash and upgrades, then climb from Trainee Officer to Director General.

FIVE BORDER POSTS, ONE CAREER • Bramblewick Airport: planes land all day. Get every passenger through passport control before they lose patience. • Frontier Road: cars, vans, coaches and lorries queue at your booths on the border with Norvalia, and long waits make them honk. • Kingsbridge Rail Terminal: a grand Victorian train station. Get everyone through the ticket gates, security and your booths before the train leaves. • Saltmarsh Ferry Port: each ferry rolls a whole deck of cars off at once. Clear every sailing before the next ship is due, through fog and storms. • Albion International: an arrivals hall, a departures hall and transfers in between, all at once. The final stop of your career.

FEATURES • Border patrol by air, road, rail and sea: pass day 5 at one post to open the next on the world map • Smuggling rings, police dog patrols, VIPs, diplomatic bags, inspectors, jammed e-gates, snow, fog and storms • Officers who learn on the job, get tired and need their coffee • A tycoon and management game at heart: upgrades, prestige projects, 33 medals and eight career ranks • Free play after day 15, with fresh events at every post • Big, chunky buttons, and on a tablet the whole hall in landscape • Plays offline • No ads, no in-app purchases and no personal data collected
