## What is DodgeDot?

Ask yourself how many games have enthusiastic players who are still playing and competing weekly for five years, six years, seven years, or nearly eight years?! Very few, unless you’re talking about DodgeDot™! What on earth can make a game so simple, yet so compelling and addictive? Why is the DodgeDot™ player community so fanatic and dedicated?

DodgeDot™ is truly a game for everybody with players around the world from 2 years old to in their nineties. With over 22 miliion games played to date, it’s incredibly simple to play. DodgeDot™’s basic rules can be described in less than a minute and many players learn the basics just by jumping in and quickly discovering them by trial and error. It's a game that can be played at a gentle and relaxing pace and yet also provides plenty of challenges for players that want to develop their dexterity, playing strategy, and overall game skills for competition. 
DodgeDot™ is elegantly simple, yet produces infinitely rich gameplay:

- Drag the moving colored dots to matching goals to score points
- Clear all moving dots from field to advance to the next level
- Avoid colliding with dots of different colors
- Avoid contacting unmatched goals of different colors
- Join dots of the same color to earn bonus points

The nature of the game's dynamics are infinitely variable, with its dots moving in different directions and speeds, and with time and every player interaction affecting the subsequent dot movement patterns and point values.

DodgeDot™ is also a visually pleasing game of colors.  Choose your favorite four-color schemes to play with, from a large selection of palettes.

- New Game Rounds with fresh starting patterns for Levels automatically start every Monday!

- Built in leaderboard network where you can have your own profile, see rank listings for players, friend other players,etc.

Here’s what DodgeDot™ players have to say:

“Total Addiction!!!!  It’s hard to put it down.... The game is mesmerizing…. I have come to the conclusion that the best games in the App Store are those that concentrate more on the gameplay and concept, and less on having the fanciest, largest game around. My favorite games are the simplest and most elegant … and DodgeDot™ tops the list”

“I’ve been playing DodgeDot™ for over 3 years and still enjoy it as much as I did then. If people would only try it, they would be pleasantly surprised why it’s such a great game that’s hard to put down”

“This is truly one of the few games I absolutely cannot bring myself to delete, no matter how low I become on memory. This is a definite must buy!!!”

“This is great for all ages (at age 63, I should know) and the video instructions are beautifully done. …worth way more than you’re payin’. As a retired teacher, I view this as a fantastic opportunity to both develop... and retain thinking skills. These folks put a lot of thought into development and execution! Don’t pass it up!”

“This game has all the makings of a timeless classic. I find myself always coming back to DodgeDot™.”

"Soooooooo Addicting. Seems easy till it blows your mind and you throw your iPod/iPhone at the ground. Either way great game I simply can't stop playing.  "

"Excellent game. Entire family from 3 to 83 loves it"

"This may be the winner on my list of 'Most addictive games for the iPad.' My daughter is addicted, I'm addicted and my mother is addicted! Love it, love it love it"

"Deceivingly simple at first, and gets challenging pretty soon. Reminds me of Tetris."

### 1/5 — Won’t connect

*2025-01-05, version 1.8.5*

I’ve had this game on my iPad for years. All of a sudden, it’s telling me I do not have Internet connection. When in fact, I am at home on my home Wi-Fi with five bars showing on my screen. Tried to go to app support, and I got a 404 error, page not found. So between no support and no connection, this game stinks.

### 5/5 — Somehow still functional??

*2022-03-03, version 1.8.5*

Ok, little hit of history: I played this quite a bit about ten years ago. On an iPod Touch 2nd gen.

Anyways I was clearing out apps on my iPhone XS (we’ve come so far) and this one was still, somehow, working. It hasn’t updated in four years. There’s some visual glitches, spacing weirdness, but nothing gamebreaking. There’s a handful of people still topping the leaderboard every week.

I fully expected it to break on contact. But it’s fine?? It still works??? I am highly impressed.

Creators, if you see this, can you push an update just to keep this thing functional the next time Apple radically changes its firmware?

### 5/5 — DodgeDot - Best Game Ever !!

*2017-09-09, version 1.8.5*

Love DodgeDot !!    I've been playing weekly for nearly 8 years since it's creation.   It's still the BEST GAME EVER !! Give it a try and then then keep trying.   The levels increase in difficulty to keep you on your toes.   There's is a definite strategy to this to keep you engaged.   Each week is its own mini tournament of sorts against everyone.    Continue to beat your personal weekly best and you'll see how it's hard to put down.   Let's make this game famous !!

### 4/5 — Fun, but...

*2015-05-13, version 1.5.1*

A great game that's lots of fun to play but it's not random every time. After you play it a few times you start to notice a pattern. This would be a five star game if each level was new every time.

### 4/5 — Good game! Worth getting! FUN! But wifi issues...

*2015-05-02, version 1.4.18*

Good game, and definitely worth getting this one! However (constructive criticism) I get a bit tired of having to 'restart from scratch' every time the game ends (because I ran out of lives). Yes, I realize that this is the game's basic format, but it is pretty boring to have to go back through all the 'baby levels' just to get back to the more challenging ones you actually want to face! You might get more long-term users if you came up with a way to deal with this issue - some of us just want to play challenging levels, and are not as concerned by our overall score. Thanks for the game, though, and keep up the good work!!
Update: find it irritating and kind of creepy that the game won't come up and run unless you have the wifi on. Goodbye, airplane entertainment! But seriously, not everyplace you go has wifi, so please fix this. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Love it!!!

*2015-01-24, version 1.5.1*

This game rocks! Whoever made it, and put it out for free is awesome!!! Endless hours of fun!!!

### 4/5 — Fun game!

*2013-12-31, version 1.5.1*

This is such a fun and addicting game! Can't put it down!

### 5/5 — Hours of Fun!

*2013-11-23, version 1.5.1*

This is a great game and the time passes quickly when playing it.

### 5/5 — Addicted

*2013-10-12, version 1.5.1*

Love it ... Cannot stop playing it

### 3/5 — Won't open....

*2013-09-03, version 1.5.1*

I love playing this game, but hate the fact that for some reason it has to be connected to the Internet in order for to open.
