Dinsun Review
Dinsun here. Sometimes you just want to sit down and watch something pretty. Frost isn't a game in the sense that you're 'winning' or 'losing' in any stressful way. You're just nudging light. The particle physics are beautiful—watching them swarm and flow like a school of fish is genuinely hypnotic. It’s the kind of game you play to decompress after a long day.
That said, if you're looking for a challenge, you won't find much here. The puzzles are fairly simple, and the lack of any real 'fail' state might bore some people. It's a conservative design that knows exactly what it wants to be: a calm, beautiful interaction. It’s a bit of a one-trick pony, but it’s a very nice trick.
