Teeworlds' one-of-a-kind community is the thing keeping the game alive. Be it the community servers or maps or all the other innovative content.
Pro Easy to pick up but hard to master
You will never stop learning new tricks while playing Teeworlds, no matter how long you play. At the same time it's easy for new players to just pick it up and have a blast.

So it's easy to play cross-platform with friends.
Pro Tons of mods and maps
Pro Very fun and engaging gameplay
Even at relatively low skill levels the game is a lot of fun - think Worms in Realtime! The antics you can get up to while "hooking" yourself around maps is just silly :P.

Pro Usually populated servers
Cons
Con Dated and boring game mechanics
Over simplistic and repetitive.
Con Doesn't explain game mechanics well
Battle mechanics, job changes when leveling up, and traits/skills are not explained outright. However, there is in-game help which you can refer to.
Con No simultaneous multiplayer mode
This limits player counts, map sizes and a really simultaneous mode is the only truly acceptable mode for a modern turn-based multiplayer game. Should have been part of the game years ago. Maybe the engine is not suitable for it.
Con Non well documented Add-ons
I'm currently stuck on 'The Chosen Glade' stage of the Rebirth in Nature add-on, with a lot of essence(s) and souls to convert to points for upgrades; should I find the way out of there for Aucrin of course.
Con Takes too much CPU/RAM resources
Too much does not mean you can't run it with a decen computer, but still, it's way too heavy for the result. Hint: using maps of vectors of strings is a bad idea.
Con Micro management
Con Weird net-code
Even though the game is playable without issues and characters move like they should, they don't register enemies' mouse movements really well. Because of that, it's hard to tell apart who is a spinbotter and who's a legit pro player.
