Dinsun Review
Look, I grew up with Tiger Woods PGA Tour on consoles. Trying to play golf on a watch face is, frankly, an exercise in squinting. The developer did a decent job squeezing 3D environments onto such a tiny screen, and the physics aren't half-bad. However, Dinsun doesn't have the patience for finicky touch controls on a device meant for notifications. It’s a novelty. It works, and it’s arguably the best golf game on the Watch, but that’s like being the best chef in a fast-food joint. It’s limited by design, and after three holes, your eyes will want a divorce from your wrist.
