Pupperazzi is about taking pictures of dogs for internet points. It sounds perfectly fun on paper but the reality is a bit more mundane.
The base objective of the game is to earn enough of a following to unlock each area and take photos of sweet lovable pups in each of these vistas. This can be done either by following objectives and natural game flow...or by rapidly photographing as many dogs as possible, exiting the session, and re-entering to do it all over again.
For players looking for heavy structure, objectives, or plot you can find it in the form of the in-game photography objectives given by NPCs but that's about all there is for you. But for those seeking a game good for speeding through, for improvising, or for the general ability to mess around, this will be a hit for you due to the games low-restriction movement mechanics and lose progression systems.
However, at the end of the day, it's a game about taking cute photos of dogs and it delivers on the premise. Several lenses and filters means those focusing on photography get their wish. And the Puppypedia system and variety of lovable dogs performing activities (like 900s off the half-pipe, eating frozen yogurt, or sleeping in a hammock) ensures that those focusing on the dog portion get theirs too.
One can expect more, or deride the game's simplicity. But frankly, it is exactly what it said it would be and nothing more. And it's up to you to decide if that is a crime or a blessing.
