I have had to play with this so called “robot” because this stupid game says I don’t have enough coins. And there is a button that says “free coins” but it literally doesn’t work which is seriously beyond annoying. It’s a great concept and I downloaded because I like playing on game pigeon on iMessage but my friends are sometimes busy. THE WHOLE STINKIN’ REASON WHY I GOT THIS IS SO THAT I COULD PLAY WITH OTHER PEOPLE AND I CANT EVEN DO THAT BECAUSE I HAVE 0 COINS. ### 3/5 — Easy yet boring *2019-04-16* To be honest I forgot I even dowloaded this for the longest time. The game was fun at first; however, I wish the difficulty was higher. Even when set to “crazy” this game is extremely easy. I always win 21 to 4. There is simply no challenge. Needless to say, I got bored very fast. ### 1/5 — What a terrible game *2018-11-11, version 1.2* This game could be a lot better ### 1/5 — Have to earn coins to play with people. stupid. *2017-06-18, version 1.2* I wanted to play this game with my kids and it won't let me without earning coins every day. Dumb. Deleted. ### 1/5 — Worst game I ever played *2017-05-09, version 1.2* This game is terrible it has a ton of bugs and it only lets me play against robot because it doesn't let me earn coins ### 3/5 — It's okay *2017-05-09, version 1.2* Why can't I go vs my friends makes no sense please help ### 2/5 — Time limit😵 *2017-04-02* There are better apps. This one makes you have a time limit and if you don't move before the time is over, the robot wins. It can have a setting where you can turn on or off the time limit, but it doesn't have that setting. The robot can wait. It's not going to kill the robot if it has to wait. Please fix this. ### 1/5 — Rules are wrong *2016-10-06, version 1.2* In the children's game of connect the dots, a player cannot be skipped and there is no time limit. Therefor, in this case it skips a player after 8 seconds and gives the other 2 turns which is totally messed up. Learn the rules then code a game. ### 2/5 — Bad online game *2016-07-29* It wouldnt connect with any online players. And half of the draw to this is the coins you get from playing online (at least to me) so i dont recommend it. Its probably just not popular enough yet ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2015-11-06, version 1.2* It's similar to tic tac toe only much harder and you have to think much farther ahead. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Horrid *2024-12-07* Can't even play with friends because you need coins and the daily coins you're supposed to get don't even show up. >:( You can only get coins if you pay real money for them!! DO NOT RECOMMEND!!! ### 1/5 — Bull crap *2021-10-23, version 1.2* You need coins to do anything but play with robot. So stupid. ### 1/5 — Terrible game *2020-10-26* Garbage game, don’t even download it ### 1/5 — No coins *2020-06-06* Just want to vs my friends however despite the game saying ‘free coins everyday’ it hasnt given me any, so i can play online or vs mates. ### 1/5 — I HATE THIS GAME *2020-01-13, version 1.2* THEY SAY YOUR ON EASY MODE BUT THEY PLAY YOU HARD MY DAUGHTER KEPT LOOSING AND SHE GOT UPSET AND BROKE MY PHONE DO YOU THINK THATS GOOD? HUH ### 1/5 — Annoying *2019-12-08* Sends me notifications saying I’ve been sent free coins so I can now play with friends but when I go into the app it says I don’t have enough coins to play with games so pretty rubbish ### 1/5 — Doesn’t give free coins! *2019-08-07, version 1.2* Not only does it get boring after a while playing a robot, this game doesn’t give me the free coins “daily” like it’s supposed to, and i’m not buying any. So here I am stuck playing a robot. Really gonna go ahead and uninstall. ### 1/5 — This is crap *2019-06-26* This is crap ### 1/5 — Why do you need coins for this *2019-01-13, version 1.2* So im over the robot its boring but yet i click on the play with player and it says i don't have enough coins, tbh i don't see why they needed this and i think they should really fix it. ### 1/5 — Free coin, not working *2018-12-22, version 1.2* It’s a great game but the free coin is not working for me so I have no option but to buy coin. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Excellent *2019-07-23* Certainly pushes your brain! x ### 5/5 — It cool *2017-05-18, version 1.2* Gucci yeah man ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2015-10-15* Great classic dots game. Very nice graphics and very easy to control. The game has different kinds of game modes where you can play against computer, friends or online. Very entertaining game. ### 5/5 — Love It *2015-10-08* I am a sucker for these kind of games. I love strategic games and games that requre a lot of skill and thought. Perfect for those who enjoy the same kind of genre. Love the app and love the challenges! Keeps me glued easily, haha. ### 5/5 — Great Game! *2015-10-08* I used to play this game on good ole paper all the time when I was younger. I love this app because it's the same old game but you can play against a robot, a friend, or a random player! It's harder electronically because the game goes pretty quick especially when you're playing a robot! ### 5/5 — Love the challenges and a good time waster *2015-10-08* This is one of the most played game on my phone, I completely recommend if you like to play most beautiful and challenging game. Thumbs up from me. ### 5/5 — I like it. *2015-10-08* I don't really play much games but as I was scrolling, this one caught my attention. You either face a friend, online, or a robot trying to connect as many dots as possible to make squares. I'm liking it more and more. It's getting more and more challenging as well! ### 5/5 — great game *2015-10-07, version 1.2* my son love this game and he always win it’s fun when you have time to kill great game and i love it !!! ### 5/5 — Addicting *2015-10-07* At first look I thought the game was bland, but as I started playing it, I instantly got hooked! Premise is simple, but it is so challenging! Great game to play when you're feeling competitive ### 5/5 — Childhood ❤️ *2015-10-07* I used to play this game with my sister as a kid with paper and pens and am so excited to see that it is an app, it brings back so many childhood memories. I love challenging my friends and other online players, it is tons of fun! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
