Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
For about 6 hours. Then you realize everything is behind a paywall. You cant even earn the gold you need to play half the game. Levels so hard it takes 40 times to beat them, unless of course you have goldThe scavenger hunt is fun, until you want to finish it. 7 coins to continue, 10 coins for the second to last level, 10 coins to finish with the prize of 15 coins. Could have been an amazing game, a real bummer.
They have really bought into ads, wow it's a lot.
We have played this game since it came out a while ago- the graphics are beautiful, its not visually overwhelming like other games are. However, Ive noticed that recently the dots and mechanics are moving at least twice as fast as they were before, which completely kills the vibe of it being a relaxing and calming game. It feels like Im being rushed and the animations are chaotic to watch now- it would be great if there were a way for users to adjust the speed, or to slow it down a little so it feels like an experience rather than trying to get through your moves.
Was really enjoying reconnecting with this game after several years of inactivity. Great gameplay, satisfying haptics, etc. But, man, has it gotten bloated. Totally disrupts the experience to have to wait for all the in-game modals and ads before being able to select a level or just move onto the next level after beating one. All of the tiers and progress meters and power-ups are so over-engineered which at first just seemed annoying. But when we opened the app after some time away and saw that we were DEMOTED in our player tier (and losing power-ups in the process), Id had enough. Why overcomplicate it so much? Why punish users at both the level of micro-interactions AND the broader user activity level? Honestly just.weird decisions tbh. The game is good enough on its own already without all that bloat and noise.
We really do love this game and one of the best parts of it is the music and sound effects. However, the game has gotten so glitchy that the sound will go out mid-level until we close and reopen the app. But the sound for ads works perfectlywhich is extremely frustrating. We want to be able to hear and appreciate the music and sounds that the creators have put time into developing! We would love to continue enjoying this game, but based on the other reviews, there are quite a few things that need to be fixed asap.
Updated 2 days ago, and the side bar game ended 3 days ago. No updated games?? We need to win some advantages to get past a level Im stuck on for days.
Too many in-game pop ups, takes too long for them to load and exit out of, levels arent beatable, booster boxes dont give you the boost they once did. All in all Im disappointed at how annoying this once addictive and fun game has become in just a couple years (Ive had it on our phone consistently for a decade!).
Ive been playing two dots since about 2016, it used to be so calming and exciting. Now every time we open it there are a billion pop-ups we have to click through, nothing makes sense, its laggy. Its so sad because the game used to be so beautiful and simple. They added too many features. Cut back.
We like two dots. Its a little bit Frustrating, but download it and try it anyways.
Note to the devs, unless this is on purpose which we suspect it is. There needs to be a confirm button on using Gold coins! The amount of time we have mistakenly press to use the coins instead of play again. Bad UI design.
This was our go to game for years and when we say years, we have been playing this game since 2009? We guess we should be happy that it took this long to have ads, but the search game with ads is pretty sad and terrible. Just make it a separate game if youre going to make people pay to do all of the levels.
Its a fun game and all but we just wished we could just play Hidden Objects by itself and nothing else.
We enjoyed playing the game, but we spend more time trying to get through the ads than we do actually playing the game.
Our Wife speaks in her own language, we knowstrange, sometimes we ask for a translation but she says, just connect the dots. The only dots we put together are-: %.
We've just redownloaded this game, and the first thing we noticed was how glitchy the game is now.. It freezes on sometimes and we have to close the app for it to run again. We also realize it's way more ads then when we had it before, we understand the app needs to make money but let's not make it unplayable. Overall, it's a solid game, just glitches and ads need to be fixed.
Ive been playing this game since inception. It has hands down been our most favorite game. However now it seems levels cant be won unless you use a reward and earn an award its seems like you have to pay for them now. We like how the game was previously operated when you had the option to earn free bonuses but also could buy a package if you wanted to. Now you get demoted when you dont rank high enough and it just seems more stressful than a stress reliever when playing this game. Feels like we will need to retire this game and find a new fave.
Why doesnt evrything cost coins its so annoying. The rario of prices to how easy it is to get coins is so bad.
This game makes it so clear they want you to spend real money in order to play. They create levels that are impossible to beat because they want you to clear so much of a color that they dont even put that many color dots in the level. Plus having only 5 lives and having to wait time to play makes us not want to play at all. We used to play this game all the time but its gone too far with extra stuff in the way. Its so obvious you need to spend real money in order to enjoy the game. Shame on the creators.
Loved the game until the new update that sped the game up. Our friends all played together, weve since stopped because the speed-up makes the game frantic and messy and not fun.
We love the game but the amount of in game pop up's that happen is absolutely ridiculous and so annoying.
This was our go to game for killing time but the recent addition of ads have ruined the games flow. Ads will pop up and interrupt actual gameplay, often when your thumb is on the screen. That causes your browser to open the pop up ad because youre already in contact with the screen. Im not opposed to ads and dealt with them when rounds were cleared. Allowing them to pop up during live gameplay is aggravating.
We've been playing this game for years and really enjoyed it in the past. However, we think we may delete now as even opening the game to play a level necessitates that you click through 5-6 different pop-ups and the ads are very annoying.
We had this game for a few years and it was great until recently. The ads got completely out of hand. Our last straw was when ads interrupted game play like three times on a single level. Very disappointing because we really enjoyed this game.
This is at its core a great puzzle game. However, over time it has become flooded with more ads and more events that just jam up trying to play the game. Used to be a game we enjoyed playing while waiting in airports. Now you have to click through 30 ads for their stuff before you can ever play the game. Makes even opening the game a frustrating experience.
We have been playing this game for years. We have accumulated 49,251 keys and am an expert explorer 104 and your latest changes to the game may end our use of it. We have always been given opportunities to earn the powers needed to move forward in the game on a regular basis through watching ads, the occasional contest, but the daily quests where you were given rewards for completing daily tasks was the most reliable way to advance in the game. You seem to have eliminated that option and now are requiring us at a minimum to win 100 games to collect a point for each star for some unknown reward and asking us to spin a slot machine repeatedly to get a simple timed reward. We are not impressed. If things dont improve, we will retired the game and you wont get the ad revenue either.
We enjoyed this game for many years; however, we were recently presented with a message that we would have had to accept that said they would track our activity across other apps so they could market to us. We always click "Ask app not to track" on our iPhone, but there was no option to not track, so we ended up deleting the game, which was a bummer because we were in the 6000s level. Oh, well, we'll find something new to waste our time with.
Love ittttt. Been playing this game since 2015 wow I0 years. It calms our nerves and so relaxing! We normally play three times a day. Especially after work to decompress. Im on level 3,600 haha after all these years and still addictive. This is our number one game though Ive tried to compare to many! This is still TOP TIER 10/10.
We like this, one of the few games we want to play ourselves and share with our second grader.
The best connect the dots game ever created.
There's nothing to hate about it.
We have been loving this game for over 10 years. We play everyday on our phone and iPad and we still find it fun. The side game with the crazy things to find is super amusing, kudos to the illustrator. It perhaps could have less ads, but we feel that way about several games. Great game.
Honestly, we only play for the scavenger hunts. Please just make an app for those! There should be a way to earn coins to finish the hunts as well.
Our only complaint- when you look at the ads for hints or for an extra gift, you cant go back to the game. You wont get the item and you wont get the hint after viewing the entire ad! Please fix asap.
This game has had us in a chokehold for 2 years!! Im on level 7546 and just hoping more levels keep coming! Best game ever.
Used to be the best game ever, but they have been ruining it bit by bit, day by day and now we have started to hate it!! So sad. We loved this game but they seem intent on destroying it. Now its a gambling game, a competition game, a greedy game that really tries to get money. We hate all that and wish they would go back to the game we played for years.
Too many to count. Id pay to remove them if we could. Ridiculous that even after you watch them you cant x out.
Love this game only complaint is cant earn coins fast enough.
We love this game. It also offers mini games. We dont know if it really pays or not. We havent tried to cash out yet.
Ive been playing Tow Dots since it was released, and for the most part, its really great. Ive been playing it longer than any other game Ive gotten over the years. But, please, developers, please fix the flaw that causes the volume to cut out after watching ads. We first noticed this issue on our iPhone 11Pro, and it hasnt gotten better in the years since.
Please make a separate app with just the scavenger hunt. We would pay for a no-ads version.
Two Dots is a fun game to play. It is challenging and a blast to play.
Literally the only game app thats stayed in our phone for years. Love the regular updates, fun elements, and look of game.
Great game! Its fun and challenging. Good job on this, seemingly simple but doesnt disappoint. It takes skill, coordination and patience to conquer the increasingly harder levels.
We love this game and it is so much fun to play when you are bored or when you are waiting for your food to come out. We feel like there is nothing we would change and this game is so much fun to play in the car or ANYWHERE!!!!! You should definitely get this game.
First,you can play two games in one. Next, the two games are optional. Then, there isnt constant adds. Finally, both of the Games help with your brain.
So many levels and fun games within one app. So addictive.
We like the scavenger hunts the best, although within the past couple years they did add a new artist who seemingly puts a lot less effort into making a difficult scavenger hunt than the original. We wish there were somewhat fewer event announcements every time you open the app. Its like before you can actually play the game and try to find squares you have to find at least 5 exit buttons. That being said, we do enjoy the game once you get to it.
Its a nice relaxing game but the sound audio always cuts out for no reason.
We would give this app five stars. We really enjoy playing. But there are so many things to click out/away from when you log in. We find ourselves not wanting to deal with that so we look for something else to play even when its the game we really want to play. There seems to be more pop ups when we log in each time. Its just annoying. We dont want to spend so much time trying to get to actual game play.
Ive been playing this game for years now, up to level 2300, and its always been a favorite because there werent a ton of ads (if any) like every other phone game. Now suddenly im getting ads all the time and its becoming unplayable. Considering deleting the game at this point because that was what made us like it over all the other games oh our phone.
