Pros
Pro By earning souls, you get to purchase character upgrades, which gives a good sense of progression
All slain enemies earn the player souls, which can be collected to use in increasing the players stats. This allows for the player to get a feeling of progression in that they can grow their character throughout the game.
Pro HID controller support means you can play with more tactile controls than touchscreen offers
Tallowmere supports HID bluetooth controllers for play.
Pro Tons and tons of loot, which not only comes in handy but allows for a good bit of customization
Like most roguelikes there is loot to collect, from shields, armor to potions there is a multitude of items to collect along the players journey that will help advancement in the game.
Pro Learn spells
There are magic scrolls that work once and rarer scrolls that let you learn the spell for the rest of the run.
Pro Can play for free
You can buy the premium currency, but you get enough of it through normal play that it's not required.
Pro Four character classes
One of them is a rogue, but you have to unlock it.
Pro Permanent upgrades
Each time you die or defeat a boss (every five floors) you get permanent upgrades, in the form of Runes (which you can swap out to customize your class at the start of each game) or Recipes (which you can use to craft items from materials found in-game).
Cons
Con Not much enemy variety
There are only four models for enemies in the game, which is pretty low for a roguelike dungeon crawler game. Sadly that means there is not much variety in this area which can become boring after extended play sessions.
Con Has ads
You can skip them with the premium currency. But the ads are always triggered by user action, so they don't randomly interrupt your games. This means they're also technically optional, but they give you bonuses you'll probably want.
Con Mediocre translation
While the basic spelling and grammar seem correct, the writing could really be better. It's often not clear what things do, even when they're documented.
