Pro Interactive distractions obfuscate the screen, creating more challenge on top of the base gameplay
There can be a number of distractions that will try to cover or make less visible the control panel of the player. Ooze will cover parts of the screen, and panels will slide out of place. The player needs to stay on top of these by putting the panels back in place or by swiping away the ooze, in order to clearly see the controls they are required to interact with. These distractions create an interesting challenge to the players, as they make the gameplay more hectic than it already is.
Pro The amenable design lends itself well to small or large gatherings
The game can be played locally by 2 to 4 players usually, whereas with an experimental massive mode it can be played with 8. Different play options allow the game to be played by a small or large number of people, so regardless of the size of the party or gathering, the game can still be played.

Pro Three modes of duels keeps the gameplay fresh, as you can just switch it up when one of the others gets old
Users can choose from three different modes of play, Diamond Duel, Chase Mode and Regular Duel. Diamond Duel works by having the match concentrate on who collects the most diamonds in a match. Chase Mode is where there is only a single weapon and only one player has it. Regular Duel is just that, a regular duel mode where each player tries to kill the other.
Pro Stylistic 2D graphics gives the game quite a bit of charm

Pro Intuitive gravity control in each map allows the actual on-screen controls to be paired down to the most basic form of left and right movement

Pro You can easily play on a single device due to the game being designed for this function specifically
Gentlemen! (multiplayer!) is a 2 player game where 2 users pay on the same device battling each other in platform based combat. Each player on their own side of the screen will use the stage to their advantage by getting close to the other player in order to kill them.
