Pros
Pro Graphic settings help provide good performance on all hardware
There are actual graphical settings options in the setting of the game allowing the player to choose what settings work best for their device. This allows the game to look great on high end hardware, yet still perform well on low end hardware.
Pro Excellent choice of shooting RPG with new type of shooting animal
Movie like western style rogue game with bounty hunter action. Awesome game. Story with a twist in the middle and end of game. Play to find out..
Pro Intuitive adapted controls
From what was originally an XBox game meant to be played with a controller, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath has been adapted quite well to touch screen. Intuitive features such as shaking the device to heal puts this game apart from other ports as time was actually taken to figure in features that work on the mobile platform.
Pro A good variety of puzzle types makes sure that the game never repeats or gets tiring
You'll have to find clues, interpret symbols, use correct items in appropriate places to unearth the mystery of the room.
Pro Immersive
Pro Great atmosphere is set by the wonderful music and well done design
Due to an excellent choice of music and incremental telling of a dark story, the game creates a nice bit of tension and a creepy vibe in an otherwise simple and calm game.
Pro Amazing graphics allow for a level of detail not always found on mobile games
The Room has very detailed graphics that show the intricacies of all the items.
Cons
Con Linear story-line doesn't allow free movement
Once you complete all the missions in one town, there is no way to go back. This sort of defeats the purpose of a free-world game.
Con FPS sections are difficult to control
The first person shooter sections of the game can be a bit difficult as the player needs to remove their thumb from one of the touch screen movement sticks to shoot, making parts of movement impossible to control while shooting.
Con The control scheme can get slightly frustrating
The touch controls of navigating in 3D can be difficult at times.
Con Should be free
Con Ends abruptly
The Room is relatively short. Experienced players will be able to beat it in less than two hours. And it ends abruptly. Luckily there is a sequel.
