Dots Mania

Dots Mania is built on a single gesture: connecting colourful dots. You link as many as you can, and there is one extra rule to remember — dots can also be connected into a square, and the description makes a point of reminding you about it. The mood is relaxed, and the bright board is designed for calm, steady play.

Three modes give the same idea different flavours. Time attack puts a clock on the board, limited moves makes every connection count, and endless mode simply lets you keep going. Switching between them is the easiest way to change how demanding a session feels without learning anything new.

Scores are turned into cups, and cups are spent in the shop. The bonuses on offer each match a mode’s pressure: dot removal, extra moves, extra time and even removing a whole colour. Saving cups for the bonus that suits the mode you play most is a small strategy of its own.

1. Choose time attack, limited moves or endless mode.
2. Connect as many colourful dots as you can.
3. Close a connection into a square when the board allows it.
4. Spend the cups you earn on bonuses in the shop.

Match your bonus to your mode. Extra time is wasted in limited moves, and extra moves do nothing against a clock, so buy for the mode you actually play.
