Game mechanics

Collect goodies for points
Contact with an enemy costs a life
A power-up weakens enemies for a short time
Eat weakened enemies for extra points

Dot Chaser is a classic maze game with a clear risk-reward mechanic. The goal is to collect as many goodies as possible before all lives are lost. If an enemy touches the chaser, the player loses a life. Collect a power-up and the enemies are weakened for a short time, so the chaser can eat them.

The power-up creates a role reversal: first you flee, then you hunt. That makes Dot Chaser highly repeatable and a great fit for challenges and high score campaigns.
