Dinsun Review
Dinsun here. I’m not sure what I’m supposed to say about a checkers app. It works. The pieces move when you slide them, and the AI doesn't cheat, though it’s predictably efficient on higher settings. It’s as dry as a desert, which is fine for a board game, but don't expect any 'royale' excitement despite the name.
It’s a 60 because it’s a utility more than a 'game' in the modern sense. It’s good to have a clean, ad-free version on the phone for when the internet goes out or you're waiting for a flight. But there’s no soul here. It’s just code and a checkered board.
