Pros
Pro Three modes of duels keeps the gameplay fresh, as you can just switch it up when one of the others gets old
Users can choose from three different modes of play, Diamond Duel, Chase Mode and Regular Duel. Diamond Duel works by having the match concentrate on who collects the most diamonds in a match. Chase Mode is where there is only a single weapon and only one player has it. Regular Duel is just that, a regular duel mode where each player tries to kill the other.
Pro Stylistic 2D graphics gives the game quite a bit of charm
While simplistic at heart, the 2D graphics of Gentlemen! (multiplayer!) have a very quaint victorian charm to them. Giving the game a stylistic look, not to be confused with many other games.
Pro Intuitive gravity control in each map allows the actual on-screen controls to be paired down to the most basic form of left and right movement
There is normal left and right movement in the game for each player on each end of the screen, but how they move to the other side is controlled by gravity wherein each player can flip the gravity on their character in order to get them to the other side of the platforms above them.
Pro You can easily play on a single device due to the game being designed for this function specifically
Gentlemen! (multiplayer!) is a 2 player game where 2 users pay on the same device battling each other in platform based combat. Each player on their own side of the screen will use the stage to their advantage by getting close to the other player in order to kill them.
Pro Intriguing world
Terraria uses a bright color palette and an upbeat chiptune soundtrack to ease you into its world. However, once you start exploring and spend time in it you'll notice it's not as cozy as it first seemed to be. Blood Moons that rouse the dead from their graves. Goblin armies trying to destroy everything in their wake. Vast and dark cave systems, filled with odd creatures and various dangers. Ancient ruins, teeming with the restless dead and evil spirits. Pockets of decaying land, thriving with misshapen monstrosities. It's really fun to explore and discover something new about the world of Terraria.
Pro Allows for freedom of expression for all ages, all at your own pace
Terraria has all kinds of tools and materials you can use to build whatever you can imagine. From housing, to furniture, to weapons, to types of structure, the possibilities are almost endless. This is great for children who enjoy building and problem solving, and for adults who enjoy the same. It also makes for a great objective-less game, where you can do just about anything you want at your own pace.
Pro Playing with friends allows for endless scenarios
Up to 8 players can join any Terraria world. You can progress through the game normally, build a race course and compete in it, or split into factions and wage war against each other. The scenarios are endless, you just have to let loose your creativity.
Pro Lots of community servers, tutorials, and streams
Terraria has a large community of players on every platform including mobile, desktop, and console. Because of this, there are many servers to play on, as well as tutorials and Let's Plays. Finding content or help getting started is quite easy.
Pro Fun combat
It starts out simple, with you whacking away at slow moving zombies and flying eyes, gradually shifting to more fierce and fearsome enemies such as flying demons, agile lizardmen, and many more. To survive you'll have to be always on the move, dodge enemy attacks, and be accurate when you retaliate.
There are also plenty of weapons to choose from. Melee weapons such as swords, hammers, lances, and flails. Ranged weapons such as bows, crossbows, rifles, and miniguns. And various items that allow you to cast spells. Whatever you choose, it feels great to destroy hordes of enemies.
Cons
Con Interface can be too small on higher resolution devices
The buttons for control may be too small for some users on newer high resolution screens.
Con Progress can feel slow
Quite often you'll have to collect tons of materials to craft the necessary tools, equipment, and boss summoning items to advance. This can take a really long time, especially if you're unlucky with the items dropped by mobs.
Con Low replay value for those who play it as an adventure game
Terraria is a sandbox platform-adventure game, so it partly hinges on beating various bosses. If you play it purely for the sake of defeating all the bosses, you might have little else to do afterwards. Restarting the game won't be as enjoyable either because you'll already know what to expect, causing continued play without a new goal feel mundane or boring.
