Pros
Pro Optional modes for extended gameplay
Along with the main story mode (which is the meat of the game) there are optional modes of play such as Endurance mode and a way to access all mini-games found in the story mode to be played at ones convenience. This extends the gameplay by allowing the user access to modes that are quicker in play or a side distraction to the main story.
Pro Deep gameplay for a match-3 game
The RPG mechanics add a lot of depth to the play as the player is able to not only upgrade their player but to collect new weapons and armor which requires some thinking and constant management of their player.

The android version keeps crashing and not saving progress.
