## What is Dot?

Connect all dots to reveal a beautiful color picture! Each puzzle consists of a collection of color dots with clues next to each dot. The object is to reveal a hidden picture by connecting the dots in ascending order and according to their color starting with 1 and ending with the highest number.

Dot-a-Pix are an advanced adaptation of the classic dot-to-dot puzzles which provide high quality color pictures when solved. Starting with dozens and going up to several hundreds of dots, Dot-a-Pix puzzles create beautiful detailed pictures and provide the satisfaction as if you drew them yourself.

The game features a Bring to Focus button to help locate the active dot, and an option to instantly move the active dot to any number for faster solving. 

To help see the puzzle progress, graphic previews in the puzzle list show the progress of all puzzles in a volume as they are being solved. A Gallery view option provides these previews in a larger format.

For more fun, Dot-a-Pix includes a Weekly Bonus section providing an extra free puzzle each week.

### 5/5 — Daily puzzle

*2026-06-21*

I’ve been playing this and other games by Conceptis. I love them all. Please please please can we have free daily games rather than just weekly?

### 5/5 — Nettes Spiel

*2026-04-08*

Wie alles aus dieser Reihe ist das ein unterhaltsames Spiel in verschiedenen Schwierigkeitsgraden

### 2/5 — Dot-a-Pix don’ts

*2025-08-31*

Let me say I love dot-to-dot. It kept me happy for a long time as a child. I really liked this one as you don’t just tap on the dot, you get to drag the line yourself. More like the real thing. So it popped up a “rate me” window and I gave it 5 stars. Big mistake because I no sooner did that then it stopped letting me drag my finger and pretty much stopped working at all. Don’t see a place anywhere to find out how to fix it(in case it was just my hitting the wrong button or something). Sigh. Always wait a long while of successful game play  before you rate it. I knew that, but they caught me on a generous day. Now to find another one that works.

**Developer response:** The problem you describe should not happen. If you are still having this issue, please send us a screenshot to support@conceptispuzzles.com with some explanation what you are trying to do. We will look into it and see how we can fix it.

### 5/5 — Dot

*2025-07-12*

I like it because I don’t have to carry a book.

### 5/5 — すげえ〜

*2025-04-20*

タップしただけで点繋げるしイライラした時するとさっぱりする

### 5/5 — ヒラタニヨシカ

*2025-03-30*

楽しいです

### 3/5 — Im

*2025-03-18*

It’s ok big deal

### 1/5 — Dot a pix

*2025-01-02*

Very babyish pictures not that realistic . You also don’t really get to pick which picture you want to do.

**Developer response:** Have you tried solving the huge puzzles with several hundreds of dots? Some of them are quite challenging and you may find the pictures not so babyish as you describe

### 5/5 — 楽しかったよ

*2024-12-08, version 2.2*

すごいあし

### 2/5 — 面白いけど

*2024-07-26*

メンが少なすぎ

**Developer response:** 宜しければ、問い合わせメールに詳細をご説明いただけましたらお調べさせていただきます。
