Good but prestige system is not right

I get that prestige typically takes the same time kinda like call of duty how it resets. 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!!!!

Bad changes

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.

Game isn’t able to function in upper 400s.

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?

It’s good but not whats Advertised

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.

Would be 5 stars if not for ads

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.

Nice time killer.

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??!!

Just ignore Voodoo as a developer

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.

Ads

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.

Found a glitch in the app that unlocks everything

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

Fun, I can’t play anymore

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.

Glitch and frame problems at high levels

So I’m addicted and am at level 429 (2 days later). Frame rate is at nearly 1fps. Now I understand that 2166 dots is a little excessive but everytime I play it will only Register as popping 0 or only up to 1700 dots at a time. It’s kinda lame now but if you were to somehow add a gamemode?

Don’t get too many dots!

I really enjoyed the simple joy this game brought me. But now I have 2598 dots and I think I broke it... the app keeps crashing, I can’t even get a chain reaction to start.. it’s kinda upsetting because I even spent 2.99 2 days ago to get rid of the ads. (I got so many dots by upping the dot/offline earnings and watching the 30 second videos to double/x10 my earnings).

Want To Disable Ads?

If you don’t like how many ads there are just turn off your WiFi/cellular data, you will get 0 ads and will be able to play infinitely without getting interrupted by an ad.

Bugs

The game is a bit buggy, sometimes the game doesn’t refresh and doesn’t load in more “dots” forcing me to close the app and reopen which is quite annoying, also the 10x score multiplier doesn’t provide reward after watching the video most times but overall if those bugs get fixed the game is quite fun and addicting just like most Voodoo games

Holy Ads, Batman!

Way too many ads! You tap on the dots, it take about 5 seconds to do what it does, then it’s followed by a 30 second ad. There’s about 1 add for every 3 or 4 taps/attempts.

To increase your income from a tap, you can choose to watch an ad ... so many times there is an ad, immediately followed by another ad.

That being said, I really like the simplistic nature of the game. It’s addicting and it appears that there’s no end in sight. I decided to delete the game because I was spending more time watching ads then playing the game.

Game is crashing on me, but I love it!

I’ve made my way to Level 488 and the game lags and sometimes crashes when I try tapping the screen to place a dot. There are so many dots and reactions I think it’s too much for the app to handle, but up until this point I LOVED this game!! I really
Hope you guys find a way to either fix it or stop making it lag at such a high level because I actually paid to have this game! The only true complaint I have is that after passing level 200+, the game said there were 300 balls onscreen, but I highly doubt there were that many onscreen. So my question is how is the game calculating how many balls are being popped when there’s no way there could be 2500 dots onscreen at level 480+? Thanks and I hope you guys fix this and add more skins too!

It lags when you get to a certain point

So this is a neat little game if you’re trying to just pass the time, but after the dots start getting into the thousands it starts to lag. I mean I got up to about 1,400 and it just lagged when you pop the dots, and I ramped up to about 1,700 and it lags so hard that it leaves a few hundred unpopped. So if you’re gonna play this don’t keep it around for too long.

Amazing in every way but extremely glitchy

Bigger Update: I cannot do anything on the app. A suggestion could be assigning a certain power to each dot. Instead of having 3000 dots, having 300 dots with a power of ten (having 1 dot = 10 dots). I don’t think any device can handle this type of giant quantities.

Update: Too glitchy to even play now. I have 2663 dots and ~$255 CG. It won’t even collect dots anymore. I think I have broken the app. I can’t play anymore but it was super enjoyable when I could...

First review: This game is literally so addictive, like I can play it for hours on end. I’ve had it for a day and I’m currently at level 256 with ~$500AV. It gets super glitch this far in, I have an iPhone 7 Plus and my phone cannot handle it. I have a fair amount of storage left so I don’t know why it’s like that. My favorite game on the App Store though.

Fun while it lasted

After a week of playing i can conclude that this game can end. I currently have 3470 dots and the easiest way to obtain money is through offline earnings. It was a zen game at first watching the dots disappear in a wave, but as my curiosity drew to see how far I can go, the game now crashes. I have too many dots now, and they no longer flow across the screen but instead lags across the screen. Had fun though lol

Update issue

Well not an issue since it all sadly works but now there is adds even when I don’t click to multiply them. I can’t justify the adds with out more skins or a point. I got all skins and only kept playing in hope for an update. Sadly it was an ad update and basic settings to pay for no ads. So honestly all n all it was a fun game then it was over got an update and it was a selfish update with no justification. If there was more upgrades I would be fine and said nothing and I don’t normally make comments on these games. Just sad y’all did this.
