Pros
Pro Really good touch controls
For a game with fighting mechanics and many moves the touch screen controls actually work really well. Much as one would hold a controller the left hand controls movement including a jump and the right allows for punching, kicking, stomping and a combo of using both thumbs to do jumping attacks.
Pro Great sense of humor
A fist that talks, stripper bears, constantly breaking the fourth wall are all thing to be found in this game. There is an enjoyable sense of humor to be found that makes the game stand out from most beat em ups.
Pro 1/4 of revenue is given to charities that help reduce nuclear arsenal
One quarter of all sales of First Strike 1.1 goes to a charity to help reduce missile arsenal in the world.
Pro Clear message about the pitfalls of nuclear war
First Strike 1.1 illustrates a very clear anti-war bombing message.
Pro Looks great
The effects of missiles flying and exploding are impressive to watch.
Cons
Con Combat feels too repetitive
Once one figures out the timing and best maneuvers the core of the fighting can feel repetitive and gets boring.
Con No mid game save
There is no mid game save which means for some of the longer harder battles if one leaves the game, there is no going back to it.
