Snapdots is a puzzle about one small pleasure: five dots falling into line and snapping away. Tap a dot and swipe. It slides until something stops it. New dots keep feeding in around the edge of the board, so the space you just cleared never stays clear for long. Line up five of one colour, across, down, or on either diagonal, and they go. Close the ring of a 3x3 box, or build a plus, and they go for more. Keep clearing without a pause and the multiplier climbs to x3. Let the board fill up and the run is over. That is the whole game. It gets hard anyway. TWELVE BOARDS Three sizes (7x7, 9x9 and 12x12), each with 3, 4, 5 or 6 colours. The small three-colour board is a two-minute break. The 12x12 board with six colours is not. SIX THEMES Flat dots, glossy spheres, POKE, sweets, gems and owls. Switch from the menu; each theme brings its own sounds. LIGHT AND DARK Follows your device automatically. Nothing to set. LEADERBOARDS Every board size and colour count keeps its own Game Center leaderboard, so a 7x7 score never has to compete with a 12x12 one. PICK IT BACK UP Leave in the middle of a run and the board is waiting exactly as you left it. No ads. No account. Plays offline.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Gilly Connect at none against Snapdots's 1. Gilly Connect also leads on ratings volume (14 vs 1). Snapdots's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 8 months). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
