Slow down. Connect the dots. Watch a picture appear.

DotCalm (Dot Calm) is a calm connect-the-dots game for grown-ups. Drag from number to number and a quiet line follows your finger; finish the picture and it gently fills with soft, muted color. That's it. No score, no stars, no clock.

How it works
Start at number 1 and keep going. The line follows your finger, so there is nothing to aim at and nothing to get wrong — touching the wrong dot simply does nothing. When a stroke ends, a small ring marks it — just keep dragging to the next number, or lift your finger and carry on from there. Not sure where to go? Tap the question mark and it points straight at the dot you need — free, as often as you like.

What's inside
• 96 pictures in six packs: Animals, Flowers, Vehicles and Forest are free, and Ocean and Birds add 24 more each as one-off purchases — you can play the first picture of each for free.
• From around 70 dots to more than 230 — the swallow is done in minutes, the owl takes a good while.
• Every picture fills with color once you finish it.
• More packs are on the way, and the home screen already shows which ones. Each paid pack is a single one-off purchase — no subscription, no ads.

Why it feels different
• No ads. Ever. Nothing interrupts you.
• No timers, no penalties. Take all the time you want.
• No streaks, no leaderboards, no daily goals. Nothing is waiting for you and nothing nags.
• Gentle by design — soft haptics, quiet sounds, unhurried animation. Nothing flashes, nothing startles.

Easy to live with
• Zoom with two fingers, or with one: double-tap and drag. It works one-handed, on the sofa or on the bus.
• Light and dark themes that follow your system, or pick your own.
• Available in 35 languages.
• Plays fully offline. No account, no sign-up.
• Your progress saves by itself — put it down in the middle of a picture and come back days later.
• Your music or podcast keeps playing while you draw.

When it comes in handy
In the evening, when the day has been loud and sleep is still a way off. In a waiting room. On the train. Any time your hands want something slow to do and your head wants quiet.

Connect the dots. Disconnect from the noise.
