Dim-Dong
How it works

How do you play?

One simple rule: brush for 2 minutes, and Dim earns gems and experience. Everything else follows from that.

The timer

120 seconds, the length dentists recommend. A “3, 2, 1” countdown, then the brush starts scrubbing away on Dim.

  • • A gentle buzz at every change of zone.
  • • Pause and resume any time; the screen stays awake.
  • • You have to reach the end to earn your gems.

Gems & levels

+10

per completed brush

To spend in the shop. Every new buddy starts with 30 gems in their pocket.

+1 XP

per brush

One level every 4 brushes. The medallion on the home screen shows the level and the experience bar.

no cap

Morning, night, after a snack: every brush counts. Twice a day is still the recommended routine.

Selling. Anything you tire of can be sold from “My things” for its full purchase price, with a two-step confirmation to protect against distracted fingers. The kimono given at the start cannot be sold.

The belts

Only the judo kimono carries the belt that grows with you. It changes colour every 3 levels, just like in judo. An earned belt stays wearable: pick your favourite on the kimono card.

And they say a grandmaster belt is hidden somewhere… up to you to find it.

Dim’s feelings

A row of buttons sits under Dim: one tap and his face changes. Free, unlimited, and a handy way to say how you feel before bed.

The shop

Shop & things

83 things, from 20 to 500 gems, across four rarities: Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary. One slot per category: one cap at a time, one buddy, one background.

  • A full outfit (ninja, samurai) replaces the accessories being worn.
  • Backgrounds and buddies are not worn: they change the scene around Dim.
  • Every item can be previewed on Dim before you buy.
  • There is a secret item. Shhh.

The profiles

Up to 5 buddies on one device, one per child. Each has their own name, gems, things and belt. Switch player from the avatar at the top of the home screen.

Everything stays on the device: no account, no sync, nothing to set up.
