Like many of the best mobile games, Dots is deceptively simple. The app was created in the spring of 2013 by Patrick Moberg and Paul Murphy as part of a Hackers in Residence program at Betaworks, a four month development session meant to create new projects and see which ideas are worth pursuing. But in the world’s biggest mobile market, China, Dots hasn’t had an impact at all. While copycat games have been raking in the cash, Dots was basically ignored by Chinese consumers.
