Cons
Con Expensive for what is on offer
While the game has endless community content, the in-game content is lacking and may not be worth the sticker price of $19.99.
Con Single player puzzles are frustrating
Many of the single player campaigns are difficult due to frustrating puzzles that can take many tries to complete. As much as it is nice to have a single player campaign the real meat of the game is meant to be in the multiplayer, which shows in the design of these single player missions.
