Dinsun Review
Dinsun here. This is the kind of indie creativity I live for. It’s incredibly simple—one room, one character, one goal—but it’s constantly surprising. It forces you to think outside the game itself. Without giving too much away, you might find yourself messing with your phone's volume or brightness just to solve a stage.
It’s short, and once you know the solutions, there’s zero reason to go back. But that first playthrough is a masterclass in 'less is more.' The aesthetic is grim and minimal, which fits the repetitive nature of the puzzles. It’s a bit of a 'one-trick pony,' but it’s a very good trick. This is a must-play for anyone tired of cookie-cutter mobile games.
