Pros
Pro Simple yet fun game mechanic
Each player tries to fling their OLO onto the opposite side of the board, whatever player has the most OLOs on their side at the end wins. It is a pretty basic setup, a bit like air hockey but with more of a sinister aspect being that the other player can knock OLOs out of the court.
Pro Asynchronous multiplayer
The game is turn based, making for a title that is good for on the go gaming as each payer can take their turn when they can.
Pro Minimalist design
OLO has a very minimalistic design to it where in the game uses very few colors as well as utilizes simple 2D graphics. The approach fits very well with Googles design guidelines for Android.
Pro Has local 2-player, 4-player and online modes
OLO has an up to four player single device local play mode as well as an online multiplayer mode.
Pro Anticipation-building, reaction-based gameplay requires quick reflexes in order to succeed
The game builds anticipation through creating a classic cowboy showdown by requiring quick reflexes to win each encounter. It's all done very intuitively - first person to tap the screen after the signal wins.
Pro Multiplayer is not a prerequisite as there is an included single player mode for practice or just fun
In the single player mode the payer has shoot outs with 10 different AI opponents, which feels more like playing against a clock than playing against an unpredictable opponent.
Pro Fair amount of replayability thanks to differing timers before you shoot
The announced time for the user to draw their gun (to shoot their opponent) varies, making for a good bit of replayability in that each shoot out is different every time.
