Free Online Dot Flow

Draw paths to connect each pair of matching coloured dots on the grid. Paths cannot cross, and every cell must be filled to complete the puzzle. A satisfying connect-the-dots logic game — no download needed.

How to Play Dot Flow

  1. The grid contains pairs of coloured dots. Each colour has exactly two dots.
  2. Click and drag from one dot of a colour to its matching dot to draw a path.
  3. Paths must travel through adjacent cells (horizontally or vertically — no diagonals).
  4. Paths of different colours cannot cross or share cells.
  5. Every cell on the grid must be covered by a path — no cell can be left empty.
  6. Connect all pairs while filling the entire grid to win.

Dot Flow Tips & Strategy

  • Start with dots in corners or along edges — their paths have fewer routing options, making them easier to place first.
  • Work out which colour must pass through a region to fill it, then route accordingly.
  • If a cell can only be reached by one colour, that colour’s path must go through it.
  • Avoid trapping empty cells in pockets that only one colour can enter — plan the path to sweep through those areas.
  • Redraw a path by clicking its dot again and dragging a new route if you get stuck.

Frequently Asked Questions

Must every cell be filled?
Yes — the puzzle is not complete until every cell on the grid is covered by a path. This constraint is what makes the puzzle challenging.
What happens if paths cross?
Crossing paths are not allowed. If you drag a new path over an existing one, the old path is erased at that point.
Are puzzles randomly generated?
Yes — each game generates a unique puzzle with a guaranteed solution.
