Dots: A Game About Connecting

The game itself is extremely fun, but I have experienced two major problems. 1) There is no way to block or report someone who sends multiple rematch games or has a racist, sexist, anti-semetic, or otherwise offensive screen name. Game developers do not reply to emails or make upgrades to deal with these problems. 2) If you buy upgrades or have rematches on one phone, EVERYTHING GETS LOST when you get a new phone. It's really hard to justify spending points and dollars to get everything back when the owners do not care about the user experience.

I like other Dots games, too, 'cause they all have their advantages. This one is simple that is more than perfect for chilling and relaxing while refreshing my brain a bit without any complexity, quests or complicated score systems. Graphics are simple yet beautiful and UI is totally easy to understand. Dots is a casual game in its best form. 👌❤️

The power-ups are located at the VERY bottom of the screen, where my phone controls are (I have a Galaxy S10), so everytime I leave a game by touching 'back' or 'home' I might accidently use a power-up. This is a DARK UX PATTERN (those power-ups could have been ~1cm higher - there's plenty of room). The game/app is full of such patterns. I remember playing it about 6 years ago - it was so much fun back then. Recently re-installed it out of nostalgia. Sadly, un-installing it now...

Why you have a dots game where you aren't able to go diagonally is odd to me. I understand the concept and perhaps adding that option would make the game too much like others or the scoring too easy or just defeat the purpose of matching them up as you go, I just found it weird to do, but perhaps that's the point. I thought the graphics were good, but maybe some better instructions/demo mode?

I used to love playing this game, & so since I found it again I decided to play it again. But now it seems that endless mode must be bought? I remember all of the modes being free. I'd be fine with other little things having to be paid for (such as earning double dots or even pallets), but I loved endless mode & don't understand why it was taken away.

I remember playing this game a long time ago and just playing it for long sessions. But things have changed and... endless mode is a payed mode now?? And there's things you have to pay for? Which I dont remember. The endless mode should be free tho, its weird. But I uninstalled bc its just not that much fun anymore :/

The game itself is entertaining, but the advertisements are every 10-20 moves (ish) and it started eating up my data because of the damn ads. I believe Devs should certainly make an income off of apps, but not at the expense of game quality. On to the next one...

The developer don't bother about the paying users. I bought the endless mode, and can't activate. I am being Sendt back and forth from the game and the app store, without the possibility use the mode I payed for. When I go to support this particular problem is mentioned. It say I must email. But when I click the "contact Us" link and fill the form I can't submit. A dialogue box say "Something went wrong!" Extremely annoying, because my kids nag holes in my head over the lack of this mode.

Love it! No ads, and after paying for the unlimited level (though you dont have to!) there aren't thousands of microtransactions that ultimately make you delete the app in annoyance. Perfect little time waster :) in the best way. It does drain your battery a bit but all games do.

Only disappointment is that endless mode needs to be paid for, but I'm not complaining too much seeing as the interface is clean, graphics are sleek, mechanics are simple yet addictive, and the game isn't chock full of ads and paywalls. Good job devs!

Complete cash grab. You have to pay to change colors of the ui. You have to pay to unlock a mode. Also the game revolves around you having to use the dumb powerups which can be bought with real money, and it takes too long to aquire them through the game for free. And after a few moves, the board just becomes groups of 2 dots, and no large clusters appear, forcing you to use the paid powerups if you want a better score than your previous.

When I just want to play something simple and relaxing, I play this game. I've never gotten into it enough to buy things or play matches, because it doesn't hold my attention for long enough to justify money spent or commitments made. But it's great when I just need a soft distraction.

I like this game, but after spending a lot of time trying to get the achievements, I noticed the dot bonus doesnt show up. I spent a good amount of time doing the barrel roll one for 8,000 dots, and I got nothing. 👎👎👎

Used to play this game and enjoyed it. Had to uninstall several apps and didn't get around to reloading it...until now. Loaded it and attempted to open it several times with no luck. Waited up to five mintes and waited, but nothing.Unloaded and will find something else. Game isn't worth anything if you can't play it😕

Uninstalling. Try being Upfront and saying this is a Pay Game? Lovely addictive game.... until you realize the Only Way to advance past the mid levels is Cold Hard Cash to buy coins etc (which can add up to $100s a month guys!).... and what you get for your money is shamefully little. Found another series of awesome games in which you can advance without spending a dime or watching incessant ads... and i am happy to Donate to them though i don't need to for their honesty.

Primary reason for uninstalling is somehow the app eats massive amounts of battery with background operations. This was topping battery usage after removing from my charger and it wasn't even opened today. I've also seen a subjectively lower battery life since installing before I actually checked the stats. 2nd reason for removing is you won't get far into the second area before you will definitely have to buy power-ups or pray you get lucky. Progression stops and 5 life timer is rediculous.

Paid $2 to unlock endless mode. Next time I launched the game, I could no longer play it. Total ripoff, no indication that you have to pay each time you want endless mode.

Dots and TwoDots are basically the only phone games I play. They are challenging enough to keep it interesting and fun but simple enough to play mindlessly, there are plenty of levels, and they are BEAUTIFULLY designed.

Love the game but the sounds is terrible. Like electronic reverb. I don't remember this game sounding like this. Two Dots sounds normal but for whatever reason, this game sounds terrible. Please fix!

Its a nice relaxing game, and I like that you can buy the premium themes with in-game currency, but I hate that you have to pay for endless mode, and the "dot-doubler" is way too overpowered and a little pay to win.

Great casual game, just a few bugs; after buying endless mode, the achievements you earn, do not give you the "extra" dots. And you cannot reset the endless mode...

Upon emailing the developers about restoring my doubler purchase they gave me a run around about not being able to and offering compensation instead. Why would you offer dots equal to a doubler in value at a loss instead of just enabling the doubler for those who purchased it. It seems like bad business practice and extremely redundant. I've played this game for years but now this long-time fan is shutting this developer out. It's sad companies care more about the buck than the buyer.

Pretty good over all. I really find the whole game to be very relaxing and fun to play, but is the music and fx 𝙨𝙪𝙥𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙚𝙙 to sound that way? My audio sounds choppy, almost like it's being badly stretched. Im using a oneplus 7 pro if helps.

Simple yet great way to distract me for a few minutes. Different game modes depending on how you like to challenge yourself. Biggest plus is you don't have to wait to earn energy to play games. Play when you want for as long as you want.

I've been playing this game for years and I still reach for it when I'm bored in transit or listening to a podcast while unwinding. My go-to mind quieting tool for the last 7+ years. I love this silly game!

$3 dollar customization is extremely limited. Still no black background option when it's in app under another theme already. Seems like a deliberate choice
