Cons
Con Controls are awkward
Judging this games controls against any current 3D titles and they will appear to be pretty archaic. While they remain the same from the original title, controls are very difficult and are made even more so with the implementation of touch screen.
Con Extremely difficult
Even though the levels are only 20 seconds long, the difficulty of each level is so high that it takes several attempts before a stage is completed.
