Dots: Simple, But Effective

Dots is a new and very simple puzzle game that has quickly surpassed 1 million downloads to reach the “Top 5 Free iPhone Apps” and the “#1 Game in 8 Countries”.

From the App Store marketing, to the games look and feel, this game is incredibly simple and upon playing it you can see why it has become so successful in such a short time.

The apps description simply reads:

“Dots is a game about connecting the dots. Top 5 free iPhone app. #1 game in 8 countries.”

That's it! No fancy description with lists of features or quotes. The description is explicit, simple and entices the user to find out more.

Combined with a simple, yet beautiful design, the app is pleasing on the eye and keeps the user engaged for hours. The longer the string of dots you create, the more cute sound effects are combined to create a tune. This is strangely addictive and as a user, you find yourself playing for hours, just to see how many dots you can connect.

Dots was created by Betaworks One and the company is already working on iPad integration and other improvements to the app.
