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 There's different ways to play
Invisible, Inc. offers you a few different choices on how to play the game. Maybe you want to have a team full of stealthy people and sneak your way toward your goal, or maybe you just want to run in and beat the bad guys down. Both of these options are perfectly viable, even though the game is more favored to the stealth style.
Pro You get to choose which missions to take
When playing the game, you're presented with options of several different missions to take, and they all result in different perks. For example, you may need some extra money, so you take a mission with a much higher payout than the rest. Or maybe you need new gear, so you set out on a mission with a new piece as a reward.
Pro Excellent difficulty progression
As you take longer time during missions, the general difficulty level increases gradually. Time and mission profits must be balanced wisely.
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 Very static story
While the gameplay is randomized and meant to be played repeatedly due to the randomization, the story is still static, so after every mission there will be cut scenes that are always the same. After a while this becomes annoying due to familiarity, while they can be skipped, it would be nice to turn them off completely in order to save time.
