Line Up: Dots! Game

A number sits inside every dot, and your job is to trace one unbroken line from the lowest to the highest without lifting your finger. Line Up: Dots! turns that simple rule into a puzzle that gets sharper as the grid fills in: the straight path from 1 to 10 rarely exists, so you're constantly rerouting around dots you've already used while a star or two waits just off the direct line.

Each level hands you a fixed number of moves, and the three-star rating watching from the top of the screen is really a par-time in disguise — connect every numbered dot with moves to spare and you clear it in style; scrape through on the last move and you still pass, just without the shine. The forest-and-mountain backdrop stays calm throughout, which suits a game that's really about a few quiet seconds of thinking before you draw.

Controls

Click or tap dot 1 and drag through the rest of the sequence in order — the line follows your cursor or finger until you either complete the run or run out of moves.

Tips

• Scan the whole board before you draw. A path that looks obvious from dot 1 can dead-end once the higher numbers are boxed in.
• Stars are usually placed to force a detour — grabbing all of them and still finishing efficiently is where the real challenge is.
• If a level won't click into place, count your remaining moves against the dots left unconnected; running out one move short is the most common way to fail.

It's a good fit for short breaks — each level is a one- or two-minute puzzle rather than a long session.
