Powerchords are usually only fundamental + fifth. you can play those on 2 strings only.
As long as you have 3 notes available you can make a full major or minor chord as it only involved a fundamental, third and fifth.
It will sound different on a ukulele especially because of the bourdon and wont sound as rich as it will hold less harmonics (no additional higher/lower strings to repeat the note) but that's still plenty of possibilities.
Too bad you had a bad experience with it but it still is a full fledged instrument capable of playing decent music.
Of course trying to play guitar songs on it will sound disappointing most of the time.
