These extremely old versions are ideal for iOS 5.1.1 but may lack some features (like hoverboards or daily events).

If you want to escape the over-monetized ecosystem of modern mobile apps, hunting down an old is entirely worth the effort. It strips away the noise and leaves you with what made the game a global phenomenon in the first place: simple, addictive, and incredibly responsive fun. If you want to get this classic setup running, let me know:
