If you loved Dots (Free), and couldn’t get enough of Two Dots (Free), you’ll be happy to know that Playdots, Inc has made the series into a trilogy with the recent release of Dots & Co (Free). Alternatively, if all this Dots business is news to you, and you’re at all into really well done minimalistic but still brain-breaking puzzle games… You really need to download one (or all three) of these games. Like previous Dots games, gameplay still involves connecting dots, but this time around there’s new characters and super powers to go with them.
Check out the trailer:
There’s also a gameplay video if you’re less into animations and more into, well, how the game actually looks when you’re playing it:
All three games are free to play, with supremely optional IAP. Between the super minimal aesthetic and the gameplay that’s been tested through two different popular predecessors, it’s easy to be excited for the latest Dots game. Definitely give it a look.
I'm right with you on your opening sentiments, Rob. I know Kairosoft are good at what they do, but I'm only in if I like the setting. And this one might get me.
That, and the fact that the subtle All Your Base/Zero Wing reference in the use of "for great justice" in that promo pic might indicate some self-aware cheekiness.
I would love game reviews like this on TouchArcade to include an info window. For example, this game. It's free-can you buy the whole game or is it FTP with ongoing purchases? Does it require an internet connection or will I be bored on the plane unless I give them money for bad wifi? Game creator company and publishing company so I can compare to their record (Square got a reprieve from me but I'm really tired of apps and games going incompatible or disappearing.)
TouchArcade has the best reviews on the internet, with consistent info like this you could become a serious gamer resource.
For Great Justice!
Confirmed-game is online only
Confirmed-game is free to play and not unlockable like other Kairo games
Confirmed-money is power; $12.99 gets you a man's dream, a status bar that never goes down
Seems like a grand game, but I hate online only with my current life.
