Pros
Pro Tons of replayablity
Random levels, random items, random enemies, every game is new, exciting and challenging.
Pro One of a kind game
One of the best arcade roguelikes (or roguelikes, if you're a purist) out there. Difficult to beat completely and oh so very satisfying. Gazillions of unlocks, secrets, bosses, power-ups and item combinations. Limited co-op (BoIR only). The game can be genuinely terrifying and dark, especially if you take a moment to ponder what's really going on with its backstory and characters.
Pro Addictive gameplay
With an arcade style feel and a fairly quick play through, the game makes it easy to sit down and play for hours. Addicting could best describe the gameplay, something that the player can get lost in without getting overly complicated.
Pro Very easy to learn and play, while it doesn't get boring
While it is very easy to learn and play, it is still a difficult game to beat and therefore has a lot of replayability.
Pro Great Soundtrack
The soundtrack from the original and the new version fits the game really well and is extremely characteristic
Pro Beautiful design
Each level takes place on a stage of blank white, giving the users unlimited space to test machines. The destruction of machines, buildings, and NPCs in this game is graphic and hilarious.
Pro Encourages creativity
In each level, the player is given an objective. The objective can be reached in any way. Players are able to build a huge variety of custom weapons and vehicles. Potential vehicles include airplanes and helicopters, tanks, catapults, hot air balloons, and more.
Pro Active community
There are loads of forums where you can discuss stuff about the game, share creations and ideas and look for servers you can play on.
Pro Sandbox Mode and Multiverse (multiplayer and level editor)
Remember, it's not just levels! In the Sandbox you can test your machines which is neat. The Multiverse has a lot to offer as well: the multiplayer function and the Level Editor. You can upload your levels to the Steam Workshop (Steam only).
Pro Community Workshop (Steam only)
In the Workshop, you can post your creations for other users to use and you can download other people's creations.
Cons
Con It's creepy
The game to be put nicely is not really scary but just plain creepy. Definitely not a game recommended for children.
Con Another one of them games forever stuck in Early Access
Con Still in alpha testing
Some of the best features of this game are still in development. The final version isn't said to be released until mid 2016.
