Cons
Con Frustrating controls
The touchscreen controls for the game are a bit sensitive, which can be troublesome when aiming attacks. This winds up getting even more annoying when fighting boss fights, as they tend to be on the tougher side, meaning your aim needs to be on point in order to defeat them. This tends to be difficult to do with the sensitive controls.
Con Writing comes off as a bit childish
While the original target of the game may have been young adults or children due to its release on the DS (a mainstay of gaming for kids) the writing shows its roots and may come off as a bit childish.
