little CG animated segments on TikTok, and are popular in South Korea\u2026I guess?\u00a0 I don\u2019t know, I don\u2019t mess with TikTok.\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/2023\/06\/26\/uzzuzzu-my-pet-switch\/\"><strong>I reviewed a game with them earlier, but it was just a virtual coloring book<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 Well now they\u2019re back with a for real game on Switch called Uzzuzzu My Pet: Golf Dash, and it\u2019s kind of a cross between golf and WarioWare.<\/p>\n<p>There are about 72 stages in all, and each one requires you to get a ball (or something else), to a goal at the end of the level.\u00a0 But the game isn\u2019t really a full fledged golf game, you aren\u2019t scored on how many few putts you take, for instance.\u00a0 It\u2019s really more like a Super Monkey Ball game with golf controls.\u00a0 You aim your ball with the control stick, and hold down the A button to send it off with varying amounts of power depending on how long you hold the button.\u00a0 You must try and avoid pits and obstacles along the way.\u00a0 If you hit one, you\u2019ll have to start the level over.<\/p>\n<p>But the game mixes things up so you never know what to expect.\u00a0 Sometimes you\u2019re simply putting the ball to the target.\u00a0 Other times you have complete control over the ball and must roll it around.\u00a0 And sometimes you\u2019re just aiming the ball at things like a shooting gallery.\u00a0 And sometimes you\u2019re not even hitting a ball at all, but instead a flopping fish, gas tank, sugar cube, ice cream, and more.\u00a0 You never know what will happen next, and part of the fun is seeing what comes up.\u00a0 The graphics are simple but have that Katamari charm to them.<\/p>\n<p>The menu lets you play the stages, toggle options, view your trophies, and see DLC.\u00a0 But I don\u2019t know what the DLC is because it\u2019s all locked as of this writing, and the trophies are just stickers you get after beating some stages.\u00a0 I think so anyway, they don\u2019t really explain that very well.\u00a0 My only problem with the game is that about halfway through, it gets really hard and frustrating.\u00a0 You don\u2019t have very good control over your ball, and if you fall or hit something, you have to start the stage over again.\u00a0 Having checkpoints or a way to skip stages or a difficulty selection would\u2019ve fixed that.\u00a0 And the difficulty is pretty unbalanced, too.\u00a0 Sometimes you\u2019ll play a super hard stage and then do one where you can\u2019t lose at all!\u00a0 But they still make you want to keep playing to see what crazy things they\u2019ll have you do next.<\/p>\n<p><a

Factor:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Uzzuzzu My Pet: Golf Dash is rated E-10 with an ESRB descriptor of Crude Humor.\u00a0 One of the stages has you putt a cell phone, toilet paper, and a plunger to a cat sitting on the potty inside an outhouse, so that\u2019s where the crude humor comes from.\u00a0 Reading skill is helpful for some of the menu text, but not necessary just to play.\u00a0 Younger gamers may have trouble with the tougher levels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A large orange dog, a fat pink cat, a cute grey and white kitten, and a little white puppy are the stars
