Pros
Pro Engaging gameplay
You are a character, born of house Forrester, and banner-men to Rob Stark. The story takes places after the Red Wedding, and you need to make decisions which will affect how your house manages to survive during the Game of Thrones. Your responses (or lack thereof) will be noted, and depending on how you respond you can create different allies and enemies each play-through.
Pro Compelling events make the story interesting
The power struggle between gangs has resulted in the death of your father. You have flown from Hong Kong to avenge your father's death. The missions vary, and all could be plausible making it easy to get lost in the story.
Pro Local multiplayer is more fun than you'd think
The local multiplayer takes advantage of this open-world game in the best ways possible. You can challenge another player to different activities - including Death Races (last alive or first to the finish wins), Stash Dash (get to a delivery van first and make deliveries while the other player tries to stop you), Liberty City Survivor (1v1 battle against your opponent with many police around), and Defend the Base (co-operatively protect targets from incoming bad guys).
Pro Decent graphics
The graphics and lighting effects have been improved over the original version (on the Nintendo DS) to a point where they're good enough for modern mobile gaming.
Pro Controller support for improved controls
GTA: Chinatown Wars has built in controller support which means it is compatible with the Google Nexus Player as well as the Amazon Fire TV. This means you can play it on your phone/tablet with a Bluetooth controller, or on an Android console on the big-screen TV with a Bluetooth controller for an even more console-like feeling.
Note: not all Bluetooth controllers are supported
Cons
Con Very basic combat
This is mostly a dialogue game - it's the decisions you make that matter much more than the (limited) combat. Combat controls are shown on screen, and all you need to do is replicate the action shown on the display. There is no free thinking, or strategy whatsoever required.
Con Expensive
While each episode can be replayed multiple times to find different character paths, they are fairly short. Costing around $5 each, the prices quickly add up.
Con Controls on touchscreen are not that good
Driving can be pretty difficult with the touch screen controls, though there are two different settings, so one may work better than the other.
Con Not an original game
While not a con for everybody, this game has virtually nothing new about it. It was originally launched for the PSP (PlayStation Personal) and Nintendo DS (dual screen - new generation of GameBoy). The tutorial is borrowed from the PSP version, while it retains the mini games from the DS version.
