Pros:

Memorable art style and characters, Accessible hint system lets you scale the challenge as needed, Gross puzzles are fun and freaky.
Lots of funny dialogue, you can play as Lambert again! New scenery to explore and new characters to interact with. You can now finally tie everything up, and enjoy nice long gameplay.

Cons:

The settings aren't as diverse as in past installments.
You can't play as Lambert for the whole game plus this is the end of the series.
