Dinsun Review
Dinsun here. Cubicatch is the kind of game I actually respect. It doesn’t try to distract you with flashy graphics or 'live-service' nonsense. It’s just you, a cube, and a series of increasingly difficult spatial problems. The perspective-shifting mechanic—toggling between 2D and 3D—is clever and, more importantly, it’s executed cleanly. I appreciate that the developer didn't feel the need to clutter the screen with microtransactions. It’s a bit dry visually, maybe a little too clinical for some, but for a gamer who values a good mental workout, this is solid. It reminds me of the old school logic puzzles we used to play on PCs in the 90s. No hand-holding, just pure geometry and logic.
