The environment is mostly made up of lush plants and sparkling water, but with a few remnants of the human society that was: broken pots, pieces of shattered china, batteries hooked up to lightbulbs like a My First Electronics kit, old shopping bags. The impression is that this is Earth, but an Earth where humans are no more and nature has reclaimed the world. Though it’s presented from the Koppaites’ perspective as an unknown alien planet, it’s decidedly Earth-like in its design.

Pikmin 3 may be a story of survival on an alien planet, but it’s certainly without the grim, serious tone that such stories often take. The Pikmin themselves don’t speak, but through their emotive body language and quirky noises, they too deliver plenty of fun and laughter. Drake crew inadvertently saves a small group of Pikmin, the seeds of a (mostly) mutually beneficial relationship are formed-one where the Koppaites and Pikmin, by working together, can survive this planet’s dangers and plunder its resources.īrittany, Alph, and Charlie are an eccentric bunch, and the source of plenty of humorous interactions-like Brittany’s frequent efforts to skew the food rationing in her favour, or Charlie’s obsession with a prized rubber ducky. Individually, these Pikmin are weak and easy prey for the planet’s more dangerous inhabitants, but their strength lies in numbers and their ability to grow like weeds. A crash-landing on planet PNF-404-which bears a striking similarity to Earth-proves unexpectedly fortuitous thanks to an abundance of native fruit.īut PNF-404 is also home to its own indigenous species, including giant, deadly bugs and cute little plant-like creatures called Pikmin. Their solution? To take to the stars in search of another source of food, a mission tasked to the three-person crew of the S. Pikmin 3, in both its original and Deluxe incarnations, centres on a group of explorers from the Koppai, a planet wrought by famine due to overpopulation and a lack of planning. ![]() The original Pikmin 3 did about as well as a Wii U game could, but a Switch re-release with some welcome tweaks is a perfect opportunity for newcomers and old fans alike to get a taste of Pikmin‘s creative blend of real-time strategy, action-adventure, and puzzle game elements. It’s a game that’s not quite like anything else out there, except for its own predecessors, but it’s one that takes the unique premise and really makes it work. I said as much when I shared my first impressions, and despite having spent much more time with it since then, I’m still struggling to do it justice. It’s hard to fairly describe a game like Pikmin 3 Deluxe. ![]()
