Loops! is a connect the dot game for the iPhone, other iOS devices, and for Android. The game plays very much like Dots, except with a few minor changes that actually alter the course of each round fairly significantly. Your goal is to clear as many dots, score as many points as you can, and yes, make loops for even more bonuses. Read on for some tips and tricks for Loops! for the iOS and Android platforms!
The goal of the game, and the way to get the best score by far, is to make loops with the combinations. When you make a loop, you’ll add extra time to the counter, which is originally 60 seconds. You will also knock off all of the shapes of that color, which makes it easier to make even more loops immediately afterwards. You’ll earn more points for making loops than for knocking off an equivalent amount of dots without making loops.
You get one coin for every ten points that you rack up. You shouldn’t need to spend them much, but spend them wisely, and use the power ups even more wisely. The yin yang power up is an excellent one, but there is no way you’ll earn back the coins that you spent on it when you use it. The popper is a nice cheap one that can be good for knocking out a random square that’s in the way of a block, and can easily be made back. The board refresher is a good one as well.
Logging onto Facebook when you play can earn you an extra 150 coins in one shot. The game prompts you to do it immediately; however, if you don’t choose to, you can do it at any other time.
Once you do, you can challenge your friends to a game of Loops to see how your score compares to theirs. Remember to go for as many loops as possible just like you would in the single player mode.
Changing the theme of the board can actually make it easier to more quickly find combos and loops. In the stock theme, every dot looks the same besides the color, but in the new themes, the dots are different shapes AND colors.
