Ratings and reviews

It's a very adorable little game that encourages you to get out and do things such as walking, socializing, and other fun activities. -old post. New- It's been a while, I flew from California to Maryland and I think the map is permanently broken, it fails to fetch other dots, and doesn't show anything on the map but a blank screen with attachments and your marker in the middle/ none of the map loads in and I can't find other people and places. what can I do to fix this? It won't affect my rate♡

I wish it could drain less battery and while I'm trying to tame a Dot, it becomes very laggy when the creature starts to move around. This causes me to loose time since catching it is a bit tricky. When I'm facing the floor the Dots go into the wall and become transparent. I don't have offline WiFi/hotspot and this app looks like it requires so if I want travel somewhere, it's not accessible. Aside from those I like the idea of the game and it gives me motivation to move around. 😁

Would be 5 stars but my biggest problem? The prices. Nests and egg rays should be alot, alot easier to get. My second issue? A better way to play on the go as a passenger. As for things I'd want to see other then that? I'd love if there was a way to trade dots with people. Buy or add genes to your existing dots to make them fully customizable. Lastly I'd want more ways to play with the dots, like giving them toys, Lazer pointer, tug of war etc. Otherwise? Lovely game.
