For just the medium difficulty setting there is hours upon hours of content, and that's even if you skip all the side quests and just focus on the main story.

Pro Pleasing graphics that show off a well designed and polished game
The graphics look nice and you can tell time has been put into designing them. While not the most flashy, there is a certain style to the whole game that makes for a very cohesive experience.
Pro Pick up from your last save, no matter the device you are using, thanks to the built in cloud saving
Playable on Android, iOS and PC you're able to transfer the one game between multiple devices (on same or different operating systems) and take it with you anywhere you go. with a Butterscotch ID (the devs self implemented cloud save system).

Pro Hundreds items to craft in a deep and varied crafting system that will keep the user busy for hours and hours

Pro Great soundtrack that suits the humor and setting of the game quite well

Cons
Con Bomb upgrade system confusing
The upgrade system for bombs can be confusing as there is nothing in game that explains it.
Con Cloud saves not through Google services
An extra account will need to be used in order to take advantage of the cloud saving as it does not work with Googles solution to cloud saves. While this does allow for the cloud saves to work cross platform, people may not want to take the extra step to make a new account with Butterscotch Shenanigans.
Con Not free game
