Pros
Pro Each playthrough is unique thanks to the procedurally generated levels
Out There procedurally generates the game by generating random modular elements on each playthrough, making for a unique experience on every play through.
Pro Fun turn-based resource management where you are always juggling items on the fly, which requires a lot of quick thinking
Out There features a great mix of turn based strategy with complex resource management. The resource management works by only allowing you so many slots to store needed materials. These materials are collected on and around planets, and vary depending on where you are. So it makes for a situation where you need to carefully manage your inventory in order to have the necessary materials on hand to survive, which is no an easy task.
Pro Beautiful art that shows off tons of polish, making for a gorgeous looking game
The game has beautiful hand drawn graphics as well as a great score with lonely overtones, which creates a fantastic and original feeling atmosphere. This sort of polish in a mobile game is not always the norm, which is why Out There tends to stand out above many other options.
Pro No in-app-purchases
Entire game is available for one up front purchase.
Pro Playable in portrait or landscape mode
Transitions smoothly between the two. It's helpful for navigating or backtracking across a level to orient the screen depending on your direction of travel.
Pro 16-bit graphics
Much nostalgia - but this also lowers the bar for required specs, meaning your old Galaxy S or whatever can run it.
Cons
Con Uninspiring gameplay
There is an extremely limited number of actions to undertake. Playing it sometimes feels like a grind.
Con The graphics are a power-hog
While the graphics are beautiful, the 3D graphics are a hog and if you're going to be playing this on the go you should probably grab a powerbank if you want to play it for any extended periods of time.
Con Each replay feels very similar
There is a multitude of ways to die in Out There, and being that the game is a roguelike, there will be a lot of restarts. Each and every death brings the player back to the beginning, to do everything over again. This can be frustrating, and a cause for lulls in play at each beginning.
Con Shop is difficult to navigate
When using the shop to purchase items, the windows overlap each other, which forces constant tapping back in forth from the players inventory to the shops. For characters that are highly dependent on the shop, this can become irritating fast.
