Dot Product 4+

When the App Store pushed me this 4+ year old game with 0 written reviews, I knew I had to provide some context for anyone in the same curious situation. TL;DR:

There is little reason to NOT try this game. There are no ads, no menus, just a button and a game.
The gameplay is simple yet engaging. That being said, it will likely have bugs; my experience on an iPhone 11 included digital artefacts and occasional crashes (though it saved my progress).

Now, here’s what I REALLY wanted to say:

The game is simple, and just as the app description describes. It is visually appealing, and the gameplay is straightforward and fun to a point. It aims to help improve spatial skills, and seems to have been custom-built for an ‘Andrew’. From what I can tell, this game was beautifully crafted for a single person on a single device, so once the game fit those needs, I doubt the developer saw the need to update or fix any bugs outside of those parameters.

Regardless, the app is well-made, with beautiful graphics and a simple yet compelling gameplay experience that can hold your attention. It’s probably been the better part of 5 years since it’s been touched by the developer, and yet I applaud them for their work nonetheless.

The game has a simple gameplay loop that is fun and challenging. It’s really great how there’s no ads at all. The only problem I have is that even on my iPhone 13, there’s a issue with the game causing my phone to heat up quite a bit.

The game is fun, but when my shot goes over the boundary, the game force closes. I deleted and reinstalled the game and still no luck. I’m using an iPhone 11 Pro Max with iOS 17.1.2.
