Flooding Dots challenges players to do a simple task: drag dots to their appropriately colored "Dot Centers." As different colored dots flood in over the screen, the player has a limited amount of time to drag as many dots as possible to their appropriate centers.

The Powerups include:
* Blue: freezes all Dots on the screen and destroys all Red Dots on the screen
* Yellow: destroys all Dots in the region around the Powerup, giving points for each Dot destroyed
* Orange: doubles all points earned for the next 5 seconds

The Items include:
* Dot Debilitator: permanently slows all dots by a small amount
* Purple Persister: causes Purple Dots to switch colors less often
* Combo Catalyst: gives the player a combo (and thus a multiplier) to start the game with

Flooding Dots supports two game modes: Singleplayer, where players play against the clock, and Multiplayer, where players play online against friends or other players.

* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 7.0 or later
