Dinsun Review
This isn't really a game, it’s a tool. The glow effects are cool for about five minutes, and the playback feature is a nice novelty. But as a creative tool, it’s very limited. There are no layers, no advanced brush settings—just a few neon pens and a black canvas.
My biggest issue is the 'free' aspect. The ads are constant and aggressive. Every time you finish a drawing or try to save, you're hit with a video. It’s clearly designed to farm ad revenue from children who don't know any better. If you want a drawing app, get Procreate or even Tayasui Sketches. This is a toy, and a cynical one at that.
