Imagine having to pop bubble wrap as fast as you can or it would explode! This fast paced addictive game is exactly that. Click the bubbles as fast as you can as they randomly countdown to zero. If one hits zero it will blow up and you will be done. To play the game you simply select a board size and begin. The board will start off with all dots at 10 and randomly perform a countdown on each dot. Once a dot hits zero it will blow up and the game will end. To stop that from happening, you press the dots and it will increase by one. You can press each dot as many times as you want, but it will stop increasing once it reaches 10. You will get one point each time a dot decreases. The longer you can hold out the higher your score! Good luck!

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Wacky Jelly at Free against Dotting Challenge's $0.99. Wacky Jelly also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (41K vs 2). Dotting Challenge's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
