This is a Switch game from the Kirby devs where you move around a Kirby-ish-looking UFO, then press a button to lower a crane game claw to pick something up, and then move to where you need the item to go and try to drop it off carefully. Generally you'll be needing to stack a bunch of items, and you don't want everything to fall over. It's an okay little diversion, and the option to play 2-player co-op is nice (when you need a break from Snipperclips). I got tired of the formula for this one pretty quickly though, and got sick of the whistling music much quicker. And while the general concept for UFO is fine, I felt the execution a bit hit and miss. Sometimes stuff seemed to fall down for no good reason, and sometimes I'd totally BS things and miraculously everything stayed in place as if suddenly super-glued. Learning that this was a mobile game first might explain a lot for how it all "felt" controls and physics-wise. But still, it's not terrible for the $8 asking price.

This game set the record for making me go fastest from “oh, this is fun/cute” to “[stream of swears masked by unintelligible sobs]”.

I’m on what I believe is the penultimate level, the last Tetris-like one (mobile version) and it has officially broken me. Not that the last fishing or the sumo one didn’t already make me question the reason for my existence. It took me over an hour to get that damn wig on the sumo kid. They can hire a full time UFO.
