Pros
Pro Deep amount of content keeps the strategy of the game interesting and fresh, as it will be difficult to to quickly see and do everything on offer
Even though the core gameplay is simple, the amount of power-ups and enemies create a massive amount of ways to play the game which keeps the puzzle solving aspect fresh.
Pro Daily tasks/quests gives the player something new to do each day
There are daily tasks/quests that can be played, that rank the users completion against their friends and an online leader board. This way you not only have something to strive for (a high score), but gives new tasks to the player, so they are sure to not run out of fresh content.
Pro Mixing of puzzle and roguelike gameplay elements makes for a pretty original experience
The game gets its roots from roguelikes, and the complexity of the combined genre really enhances the puzzle solving side of the game.
Instead of being real time, or taking place in a large expansive world, Desktop Dungeons games take place on a small 20x20 dungeon. Although the map is small, there is tons of strategy to figuring out the optimal way to clear the dungeon. Unveiling tiles is how you recover health and mana, so the game is fundamentally about efficiently using the tools and resources available to you in each map and coming up with unique strategies in such a small space. You must balance the risk between trying to get experience from exposed monsters and exploring deeper into the fog of war.
Cons
Con Tablet only
Even though there is no indication on the Play Store that the game is tablet only, it is in fact only currently available for tablets.
Con Hidden map means you can't solve the puzzles on logic alone
The map is hidden by fog of war until you explore it, meaning you can't devise a solution from the start. Because revealing the map regenerates your health and mana you can't explore everything at the start. You need to spend most of the game not knowing the state of the rest of the map.
