Dinsun Review
The core mechanic here is actually solid. Figuring out which screw to pull first so the plate slides out of the way is a satisfying spatial puzzle. It reminds me of the old physical puzzles I used to play with. But the developer has taken that good idea and smothered it in 'free-to-play' filth.
You’ll hit levels—like the infamous Level 314—that are mathematically impossible to solve without spending premium currency on hammers. That's not a puzzle; that's a toll booth. To make matters worse, the ads are frequent and the game often cheats you out of rewards unless you sit through even more commercials. It’s a shame because there is a genuinely good brain-teaser in here, but you have to dig through a mountain of frustration and greed to find it.
