Cons
Con Pocket PC origins still show
A game originally designed for Pocket PCs, and it shows in the graphics. Very dated looking.
Con Lots of waiting around
Many portions of the game require waiting for events to unfold, even with the inclusion of a fast forward button, there will be a lot of waiting. This may not appeal to people who wish to play in short spurts of downtime, as not much will be happening when the player needs to wait on the game to finish tasks.
Con Expensive
How much for a mobile game?! Err, no thanks.
