Pros
Pro Fun even without beer knowledge
Great business model game similar to Kairosoft games.
Pro Great depth of beer brewery gameplay that yields quite a lot to explore
There are a huge selection of recipes for beers, that need the correct amounts of specific ingredients that can be made with the correct equipment by the correct staff and sold to the market that demands it. Make a mistake in balancing any of these points and suffer the consequences.
Pro Variety of gameplay elements keeps the player engaged
To break up the monotony of constant stale management of business there are challenges and events that happen, usually in the form of a goal that you have to reach in order to get a reward, that you can take on or ignore. Additionally, you can exercise your fingers by trying to catch mice that run around your brewery, these mice will give you money and recipe scraps.
Pro Immersive mode
DuckTales: Remastered features immersive mode support for full screen gameplay on hardware with software navigation buttons.
Pro Non linear gameplay with branching paths and hidden areas
The original DuckTales for the NES was created with the MegaMan engine by the main MegaMan design team. This allowed for a non linear gameplay design as well as many hidden areas, paths and treasures. The HD remakes still has all of this included in the game.
Pro Plenty of nostalgia for 80's kids
One of the main staples of having grown up in the 80's was Disney's after school cartoons. One of the more popular cartoons in this series was DuckTales, a tale about a rich uncle and his three nephews. To capitalize on the cartoons popularity Capcom created a platformer game from the franchise for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Unlike a lot of branded games of the time (E.T, Goonies) DuckTales turned out to be a very good game. One that just about anyone who grew up in the 80's should be familiar with, and even if not is at least familiar with the cartoon itself.
So now that 80's children have grown up and have jobs and money, the current trend is for companies to capitalize on that nostalgia. DuckTales: Remastered is an effort in that direction that sees the original NES title remastered with HD graphics and released on every platform known to man.
Pro HID controller support
DuckTales: Remastered has built in HID bluetooth controller support. This makes for a great game to play on tablets and Android box tops for the TV.
Cons
Con Can get dull
Fiz tends to be a slow game, which means it can lead to loss of interest while playing.
Con Not a lot of variety in visuals or music
The 2D sprite graphics are a little generic, just as the music. This can get tiring after a while as little of the aesthetics of the game change as you progress.
Con Weak - Game dev tycoon like game
Content of the game is poor. It consists of setting up a brew of a special beer and sell it at a place for that beer. There are a few~3-4 upgrades for 4 parts of your brewery and you can recruit employees. Buy a new recipe for beer and restart the brew. I love the genre - but this title is without love and without content. Instead get GameDevTycoon, Graveyard Keeper or Potato weaponshop for example.
Con Not a free game
Con Expensive
While some people may not agree, to see a 2 year old remastered port of a port be released at a price point of $9.99, the price is not really justified. While it is great to see more up front priced console quality games released for Android, 2 year old ports priced at premium prices (for the platform in comparison to other titles) is only showing Disney's greed at taking advantage of the fact that there are so few currently.
