Pros

Entire game is available for one up front purchase.
Pro Playable in portrait or landscape mode
Transitions smoothly between the two. It's helpful for navigating or backtracking across a level to orient the screen depending on your direction of travel.
Pro 16-bit graphics
Much nostalgia - but this also lowers the bar for required specs, meaning your old Galaxy S or whatever can run it.
Pro Challenging and fun
For what is a 20 year old game to still hold in gameplay, story and presentation is quite a feat and an enjoyable one at that.
Pro Great remake
The newly added HD graphics show that much time was spent creating a fantastic remake of what was a very iconic game.
Pro Controller support
Another World features controller support for MOGA devices as well as the Xperia Play.
Cons
Con Shop is difficult to navigate
When using the shop to purchase items, the windows overlap each other, which forces constant tapping back in forth from the players inventory to the shops. For characters that are highly dependent on the shop, this can become irritating fast.
Con Some issues with the control scheme
Touch controls for movements such as jump can be hard to pull off as the swipe gesture needs to be very exact.
