Dotty Bingo

A glass six-pointed board floats over a night sky, and glossy marbles leap along arcs from one point to the other. The game is told here in tempo markings, from slow to quick. Largo · The idea A board of 121 holes with six points of ten. Bring all ten of your marbles into the point across from where they start before anyone else. Tap a marble, glowing lime rings show where it can go, then tap a ring and it travels. Adagio · Setting the table Face 1, 2, 3 or 5 bots in games of 2, 3, 4 or 6 players, at Easy, Medium or Hard. Hard bots look one move ahead before they play. Andante · Friends on one phone Pass and play seats 2 to 6 people around a single phone, each with a colour: coral, sky, amber, mint, violet or rose. Allegro · Chains of jumps Step to a neighbouring hole, or jump over any marble into the empty hole behind it and keep going as long as the line allows. The last move leaves a glowing trail so nobody misses it. Vivace · Trophies and history Twelve glowing trophies, from a first crossing to chains of five and seven and a hundred jumps in total. History keeps your last 20 matches with totals for matches played, first finishes and your fewest moves. Presto · The quiz Twenty-four true facts about this marble game, its history and its board-game cousins, served ten questions at a time with an explanation after every answer. Fine · Settings Haptics, the rules, a reset, and the animated backdrop of five drifting colour spheres, which can be switched off in Settings. Plays offline, with no account and no ads.
