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 Immersive mode
Botanicula utilizes immersive mode which is available on all Android devices that are on 4.4+.
Pro Graphics border on being art
The fantastic visual in the game is remiss of art one would see in a pop art gallery.
Pro Intuitive puzzles
Unlike this studios previous work (Machinarium) the puzzles are intuitive and difficulty ramps up fairly.
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 Buggy and crashes
There are quite a few graphical bugs in the game as well as a lack of stability.
