Pros
Pro The first proper AAA game on Linux that was not a Valve title
Metro: Last Light was the first AA game released on Steam that was not a Valve title.
Pro Alternating gameplay
From mission to mission the game will alternate from action to slow and methodical, creating a nice pace for the player.
Pro Addictively challenging gameplay where "just one more game" is a constant
You will die, a lot, and that is the point. The game is challenging, but fair. It is as much about memorization as it is about precision of movement. This makes for a game that needs to be practiced, quite a bit, which should appeal to those who enjoy working for their achievements.
Pro Aggressive aesthetic that forces the player to adapt to succeed, which keeps the gameplay interesting
The visual design of the game consists of basic geometric shapes in bright colors that turn and blink, all while you are trying to stay focused on a little triangle in the middle. This can be distracting and is by design in order to try to trip up the player in their goal of continuing as long as they can.
Pro Great soundtrack that complements the gameplay perfectly
The soundtrack is done by BossFightSwe, who is very well known for their video game sounds.
Cons
Con You'll have to get the DLC if you expect to get more than 8 hours of gameplay out of it
There is only about 8 hours of gameplay in the base game.
Con May cause nausea
The fast spinning graphics could cause some people a bit of nausea.
