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.
Pro Tons of fan service
For those that are fans of the Neptunia franchise, Action Unleashed should be appeal quite nicely. While not a main franchise game (this is a spin off made by a different studio), the game retains all the fan service one would want in a Neptunia game. Plenty of inside jokes and familiar references.
Cons
Con No multiplayer
A match 3 game that focuses on fighting opponents is perfect for a multiplayer game but sadly there is no multiplayer available, locally or online.
Con Broken and not supported
The android version keeps crashing and not saving progress.
Con Weak plot
The plot of the game is no one of the series best, while this is a side game not pertinent to the main franchise, it would have been nice to see a stronger story.
