Pikmin Bloom
2021 · Lifestyle
Pikmin Bloom is less a traditional game and more a charming companion that rewards you for going outside and moving. The Pikmin themselves are endlessly endearing, the flower planting mechanic turns ordinary walks into something colorful, and the low-pressure design fits perfectly into daily routines without demanding constant attention. It lacks the depth and engagement density of other location-based apps, and players who want strategic challenges or competitive features will find it frustratingly thin. But for anyone looking for gentle motivation to walk more, wrapped in Nintendo's characteristic warmth, it does exactly what it sets out to do.
