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 Easy to google for help

Pro Remastered RPG classic with extra content
The whole game has been remastered to play and look well on modern devices. With additions to the game like skipping dialogue or being able to finally zoom this is the definitive version.
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 Combat system is still convoluted
Certain weapons need certain stats to damage certain enemies, which is most left unexplained in game, which makes the game difficult to play at times.
