Dinsun Review
Dibs takes the old 90s grid-flood formula and polishes it into something genuinely entertaining. You pick colors to expand your territory across board tiles before your opponent cuts you off. The single-player money progression loop is relaxing, and adding a 2-player pass-and-play mode makes it a great staple for long flights. It’s simple, respectful of player time, and executed with care.
