Trap The Dot Game
Relaxing Puzzle Game
$1.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Trap the Dot is a clean, elegant puzzle game built on a hexagonal grid with two ways to play.
Trap Mode — Place blockers to cut off the dot's path to the edge. The dot is smart — it finds the shortest route to freedom using real pathfinding. Think ahead, close the gaps, and trap it before it slips away.
Escape Mode — Now you are the dot. Navigate the grid and race to the edge while a minimax AI opponent tries to box you in. It thinks multiple moves ahead, just like a chess engine — can you outsmart it?
