About

Stacked with new features

The charming stack ‘em up Part Time UFO claws its way onto Nintendo Switch, adding Joy-Con controls, two-player local play*, brand new challenges and console-exclusive modes.

Part time worker, full time UFO!

In Part Time UFO, fly Jobski the UFO around and complete odd jobs. Help out at a farm, support cheerleaders, cook up the ultimate dessert at a restaurant, build castles, and much more! Wherever Jobski goes, there are sure to be plenty of jobs waiting. At the centre of all this is Jobski's super special awesome claw. Use the claw crane to grab, move, and stack objects to complete jobs.

Two claws are better than one

Pass a Joy-Con to a friend and tackle tasks together in two-player mode. Combine claws and complete odd jobs with the power of teamwork!

Stacks more to do!

The Nintendo Switch version features two exclusive modes. How high can you go? Keep on stacking and aim for a high score in the brand new Tower of Infinity. Take on this challenge alone, or hand a Joy-Con controller to a friend for some competitive or co-op fun.

Job done? Think again! Completing all the part-time jobs unlocks Treasure Island, a puzzle-solver’s paradise that can also be explored in local co-op. Overcome ever more difficult challenges to progress from one room to the next in this mini adventure!

Medal worker

Go above and beyond the call of duty to earn medals and unlock more jobs. With the right mix of finesse and forward planning, Jobski will be a highly decorated UFO in no time!

Change your look with classy outfits

Earn coins by completing jobs and exchange them for costumes to change into. Wearing these can give Jobski a whole new look and new abilities. Whether you want to show your stripes with the Tiger Suit or zip around in Ninja Wear, there are lots of costumes to pick and choose from.

Lots of friends (and foes?)

From a tight-lipped ship captain, a clumsy museum curator, or a fishy professor, to even elephants, dogs, and hamsters, they'll all cheer on Jobski during jobs, let out a sigh when Jobski fails, and show all kinds of reactions. Some of them may also be disguised and hiding in wait...

Share your masterpiece

Job? What job? Sometimes a UFO's just gotta stack to its unidentified flying heart's content. Create fun or artistic shapes and share the results with your friends.

Nintendo Life said:

The mobile version of Part Time UFO already had the charm of a Kirby game, the physics-based chaos of World of Goo and the compelling claw machine mechanics of Nintendo Badge Arcade. This new Switch port builds on top of that already impressive stack by adding a co-op mode that betters Snipperclips and chucks in an infinite mode that provides the sort of quick-fix joy that hasn't been seen since Paper Plane on DSiWare. It may be a game about picking things up, but the real challenge will come when you try to put it down.
