Dinsun Review
Dinsun here. Prop Hunt has been a staple in PC shooters like Garry's Mod for years, and Hide Online tries to bring that same charm to mobile. Conceptually, it works. Turning into a hamburger and hiding on a table while a Hunter runs past is genuinely funny—the first ten times.
However, the mobile implementation is plagued by a 'young' player base that often leads to lobby chaos and a lack of teamwork. The controls are a bit clumsy for a shooter, and the monetization is aggressive, pushing skins and emotes constantly. It’s fine for a quick laugh, but it lacks the polish or mechanical tight-ness I look for in a competitive game. It feels more like a playground than a tactical stealth-shooter.
