gotten together for a party, from We Bare Bears, The Amazing World of Gumball, and Ben 10.\u00a0 But bad guys have come to crash their bash, so now it\u2019s up to you to help those characters dash through vertically downward scrolling stages, for some reason.\u00a0 Cartoon Network Dash Party is free-to-play on iOS and Android devices, but reviewed on iPad here.<\/p>\n<p>Use the buttons on the touch screen to move left and right.\u00a0 On the other side of the screen there is a button that makes you dash.\u00a0 Use this move to smash boxes, defeat enemies, and reach faraway areas.\u00a0 Collect coins to spend at the shop later, and avoid enemies and other obstacles. \u00a0If you get hit too many times and lose all your hearts, or if you get scrolled off the screen, it\u2019s Game Over.<\/p>\n<p>After a run, you can spend your coins in a shop to buy perks that\u2019ll make your next run easier, supposedly.\u00a0 You can also buy outfits and other accessories.\u00a0 I like how these items make reference to older Cartoon Network shows, like Blossom\u2019s bow, a Bloo helmet, and Uncle Grandpa\u2019s beanie.\u00a0 Unfortunately, the game isn\u2019t that much fun thanks to bad controls and overly challenging gameplay.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/dash_screen-3\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18376\"

purchases.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Characters from Cartoon Network\u2019s recent shows have gotten together for a party, from We Bare Bears, The Amazing World of Gumball,
