Pros
Pro It's a "clicker" game you can actively play
Once you get to a certain point, AdVenture Capitalist becomes much more interactive than the average clicker game. You can restart your game and receive "angel investors," which will allow you to buy certain upgrades. The Moon level in particular is one you can constantly re-start and challenge yourself on.
Pro Tongue in cheek comment on capitalism
The primary goal of the game is to earn as much money as possible while doing as little as possible. Which in and of itself is quite the comment on the current capitalist system in society. Basically this boils down the system to it base form while keeping a sense of humor about it.
Pro There's different ways to play
Invisible, Inc. offers you a few different choices on how to play the game. Maybe you want to have a team full of stealthy people and sneak your way toward your goal, or maybe you just want to run in and beat the bad guys down. Both of these options are perfectly viable, even though the game is more favored to the stealth style.
Pro You get to choose which missions to take
When playing the game, you're presented with options of several different missions to take, and they all result in different perks. For example, you may need some extra money, so you take a mission with a much higher payout than the rest. Or maybe you need new gear, so you set out on a mission with a new piece as a reward.
Pro Excellent difficulty progression
As you take longer time during missions, the general difficulty level increases gradually. Time and mission profits must be balanced wisely.
Cons
Con Has had issues with updates in the past
There has been game breaking updates to the game that have wiped players saves and progress. This was never acknowledged by the devs other than rolling back the release.
Con Very static story
While the gameplay is randomized and meant to be played repeatedly due to the randomization, the story is still static, so after every mission there will be cut scenes that are always the same. After a while this becomes annoying due to familiarity, while they can be skipped, it would be nice to turn them off completely in order to save time.
