Me: Gabe, can we have Pikmin on Steam?
Gabe: We already have Pikmin on Steam.
Pikmin on Steam:


I'm going to play Little King Story :(

CLOUD STATUS SUCKS!!!!!!!!! Don't say that you support Steam Cloud if you do not!! I lost my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ over 4hours process!!! I worked overtime the whole ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ week and played this game staying up late during my period, I feel ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ frustrated and ♥♥♥♥♥♥.

The point is I will keep playing this game due to I like Pikmin and Luigi's Mansion, The wild at heart is a good game, that's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoys me!

This game is a bunch of puzzles with some minor combat. There's a final boss and some bigger enemies but there's not too much strategy/tactics needed.

Lots of the mechanics like crafting, items, and day/night mode just have a minor impact on game play.

So, this is presented as a cute game for kids. Based on this, I bought it for my young daughter, and she played it for a little while then quit. She was too nervous about the dark story elements, i.e., boy runs away from home because of his drunken father who only sits in front of the TV.

It sure ain't looking to be origianl, that's for sure. Kid runs from home, finds magical land he's stuck in after following a magical being, surrounded by strange people and helps them do their thing, dreams of his dad he thought didn't care about him crying since he ran from home, you know.

Not a big deal if it is just good enough to keep playing but oh by the UX is severely lacking. There is 0 magnetism for picking things up right off the bat and opening objects has all of their stuff explode everywhere, almost laughing at you with how there is no magnetism. Controlling your little pikmin is unncessarily convulted, though it may be to serve a purpose later. They will only attack things that you throw them at, instead of just attacking everything you kick or having any intelligence really. They will only return back if you hoover them back up except for when theres logic with telling them to drop stuff off at camp but then they just wait at camp for you or something instead? You need to tell them to drop everything they are carrying to then pick it up yourself instead of picking it off of them when they come back. No way to tell then to rally up without paying currency which is a huge waste. No way to rally up those that have no commands. The controls kind of have so much granularity in which you need to order every little thing but at the same time is missing the most basic functions.

Definitely putting this game down before it frustrates me further.

I don't know why I didn't enjoy this game - I like the art style, and I like Pikmin. But I just didn't enjoy it.

This game was ok... But thats it. My main complaint is that it does not feel good to play, using a controller it is kinda really non responsive to take aim with the analog and just smash the throw 30x trying not to move, also this works for every enemy blindly... This makes for a very repetitive battle system. Also scraps and resources are really abundant, so much so that it makes the game look like a big grind. The puzzles show a better variety of mechanics. The game does seems a little too short because as soon as I have gotten all types of spiritlings it was just the last boss and end, it felt like it was a very rushed ending. Maybe a last area that explored all mechanics together would alleviate this specific problem.

This is not a bad game, but it will not feel like an awesome time either.

6/10 (3/10 compared to pikmin 2 or 3)
This trash wishes it was Pikmin, and fails to meet that standard across the board.
1 terrible camera angle, while Pikmin has 4 terrible camera angles.
much shorter than Overlord/Pikmin (left the game idle alot), worse combat.
final boss is just enemy spam, no mechanics used throughout the game(ie ice sprites can make clones, so the clones fight) at all just plain old spam, right out the can. while rocks fall on your horde periodically.

The video trailers spoil a big part of the game. Now I feel like I know alot of what's going to happen and have no motivation to play any further. sadge

its cute. but its mostly boring. its a good assortment of game design choices. but compared to its competition tinykin its just not as fun. Also DAP is more exciting which is weird because this game tried having combat but the controls on keyboard and mouse are just awful.

Pros:
- tried having combat

Cons:
- Not Overlord
- Not Tinykin
- Not Dap
- Awful combat
- Generic melancholic plot
- Cute but bland art design
