Dinsun Review
I don't even know if I can call this a game. It's a utility. If you have the physical board game, this is fine, but as a standalone app, it’s basically just a random countdown. Back in my day, we used a real potato and someone played the piano until they felt like stopping. We didn't need an app to tell us when to be nervous. The UI is loud and clearly aimed at children, which is fine, but there is zero depth here for a real gamer. It does what it says on the tin, but that's not saying much.
