Cons
Con Poor story in second act
The second act of the game has an increasingly incoherent story that explains very little of what is going on. Considering the first act ends with a cliffhanger and many questions to be asked, to see the second half explain almost none of it makes for a frustrating story.
Con Some issues with the control scheme
Touch controls for movements such as jump can be hard to pull off as the swipe gesture needs to be very exact.
