Hey! Pikmin

Captain Olimar is back, but he has traded his 3D strategy roots for a side-scrolling 2D adventure on the 3DS. Instead of managing massive armies, you are tapping the touchscreen to fling your colorful, plant-like companions into action. It is a bite-sized puzzle-platformer that focuses on navigating hostile environments, collecting Sparklium to fuel your ship, and utilizing the unique traits of different Pikmin types to overcome obstacles. While it lacks the grand scale of its predecessors, it offers a charming, low-stakes journey through a miniature world that feels both familiar and refreshingly distinct.
