Cons
Con Game opens upside down
The game opens in landscape but does so upside down, though it does correct itself shortly after opening.
Con Not enough players for multiplayer
It is extremely difficult to find an online match in the game due to the low amount of users playing the game.
Con In-game currency purchased through in-app purchase
The game does use in-game currency for purchasing new units to pay the game with though it does appear to evenly reward the currency for just playing. Of course the purchased in game currency could at first give a leg up to multiplayer players who just started.
Con In game advertisements
The default in game advertisements pop up in between rounds of play, so are not too intrusive but are there. They can be removed with a single in app purchase of $0.99.
Con Late game is too easy
Rebuild tends to get easier the more farmland one obtains, so the further the player reaches in the game, the easier things become. This may cause some players to looses interest in the game, since it progressively got easier.
