But this game would get a good 4/5 stars if the prestige wasn’t a lie of sorts. It claims you earn +10% more each prestige...but the prices of each tier also increase that much each time. The prestige should be labeled as unlocks a special skin and leave the money part out because the way it is worded would technically mean we could fly through each prestige faster than the other. Just food for thought otherwise I love this game!!!! ### 3/5 — Bad changes *2018-07-12* I have been playing this game so often that I now need 1.64 billion to get more dots on the screen. I was enjoying playing it as a break from all the games where you have to wait for things to load. BUT, there was a recent update where my current score disappears every time I close out the game. It makes it frustrating because I have to restart every single time from zero but still with the 1.64 billion price tag to get enough dots to pop. I am going to have to delete the app because it is no longer relaxing since the update. ### 3/5 — Game isn’t able to function in upper 400s. *2018-07-01* I’ve really enjoyed the game until now. I’m on level 499 and the game stopped functioned properly probably about 10 levels ago. Now, I basically can’t play it, which is sad as I just paid $2.99 to keep the ads off a day or so ago. The leaderboards also don’t function. How can I get my $2.99 back? ### 2/5 — It’s good but not whats Advertised *2018-06-26* It’s a fun game. I play it everyday. My only problem with the game is that the ads on Facebook & on the app store show colorful dots being popped. My game shows popcorn kernels being popped into pop corn. I though that maybe in the beginning stages it was pop corn & then become colorful dots. As far as I know that doesn’t happen. Again this is a great game to kill time but it isn’t whats advertised. I’d give the game 5 stars if it was actual colorful dots. ### 1/5 — Would be 5 stars if not for ads *2018-06-17* When each round of the game only lasts like 10 seconds and there’s an ad every three rounds... it makes me want to throw my tablet. If you received rewards for watching ads and you got to choose when to watch ads it would be tolerable. You might as well always select the “extra pop” button because you’re going to be forced to watch a 30 second ad regardless. As it is right now it’s infuriating because I really want to play the game. Please fix. ### 3/5 — Nice time killer. *2018-06-02* The game is super fun to play and level up but I’m at level 801 and I have 4040 dots on screen and the game lags so bad i get about 1 frame per second. I rarely ever pop any dots now because of the lag. When I do pop some dots it clears the screen and I get the 20x multiplier. Devs if you read this pleas do something about the lag issue. PLEASE??!! ### 1/5 — Just ignore Voodoo as a developer *2018-05-30* Every once and a while, I’ll see an ad for a time waster game like this that looks potentially fun, and then I’ll see this developer on the tag and just sigh. Admittedly? I love watching the sprawling bloom effect that fills the screen up with various colors. What I don’t like is that in each “attempt” if you fail to get all the dots you needed, it’ll try to tempt you with an ad. Of course, you can say no to the ad that gives you the multiplier, but wait three or four rounds and you’ll have to see an ad anyway. Each round takes maybe 5 or 6 seconds, so you’ll be spending more time waiting to X out of an ad than playing. Voodoo makes these cute timewaster games, and while I can understand that every developer wants to make cash off their work, there is nothing special or unique worth the ad revenue about this game, let alone the microtransactions they want to make. The game itself is so basic and lackluster that it might as well be a programmer’s first app. ### 2/5 — Ads *2018-05-25* There is an ad after every three (3) plays. Just close the app and restart. It is much faster that way. The ads are why it got two (2) stars. If they take out the per play ads (they have ads to watch for everything else) the rating could go to five (5). If the make the intro longer I will lower the rating and delete the game. Since I have about ten (10) games by this maker I might do the same on them. ### 5/5 — Found a glitch in the app that unlocks everything *2018-05-22* Just want to say, I love dot pop, and I wasn’t to sure if the developers are familiar with the time glitch. But by changing the time, it will give you instant money. How much? It really depends on how much you make offline per minute ### 4/5 — Fun, I can’t play anymore *2018-05-17* Before an update, progressing through the game made you progress faster and faster. It got to the point where you could level up super fast in a matter of minutes. I now am level 750 and have 3769 dots on the screen. It lags my phone so much I can’t really play anymore and I have an iPhone X so it isn’t as if I am on an outdated phone. Fun game, would appreciate it not lagging. ## Frequently asked questions about Dot Pop! ### What is Dot Pop!?
