Description
Dotu is a logic puzzle game that blends the number strategy of Sudoku with the grid-solving satisfaction of Picross. From peaceful beginnings to intricate challenges, each new Room offers new mechanics to keep your mind engaged.
Place the right number of dots in each row and column to match their totals. Simple to learn, endlessly satisfying to solve.
Across 7 rooms, each one adds its own clever twist like:

- Linked Squares – One move can change them all.
