Pros
Pro It's really unique
Something hard to find today.

Linux, Windows, OSX
Pro Fast and smooth
Graphics not resource intensive. Compared favorably to Unreal engine.
Pro Free
Available under an open source license
Cons
Con Open source does not equal free
You can download the game for free, however it's an online game and you must pay for an account. You could make your own server, but unless you get several amount of people to play it would never work because of the game mechanics.
Con Crafting too complex for how simple the game-play is
Max of one hour of game-play in each run must be hard for who like playing more leisurely.
Must you spend 2 years of your life cooking a pie?
Why is crafting everything, especially the cooking, so hard (and occupies so much space)?
