Dinsun Review
Dinsun. This isn't your typical gallery shooter. LONEWOLF has a mean streak, and it wears its mature rating like a badge of honor. The art style—all harsh lines and muted colors—perfectly suits the cynical story. It actually tries to tell a tale, which is more than I can say for 90% of the shooters on this platform. The shooting itself is solid; you have to worry about distance and wind, which adds a layer of professionalism to the 'hits.'
However, it’s quite rigid. You're either sniping or you're watching a cutscene. There’s not much room for improvisation. It’s a very 'conservative' approach to the sniper genre—do the mission exactly as intended or fail. I found the energy system a bit annoying—a classic mobile trope I wish we’d move past—but the story kept me coming back. It’s gritty, it’s dark, and it doesn't apologize for it.
