About This Game
Captain Olimar must return thirty missing items to his ship before it runs out of power thirty days later. He crashes into the planet’s atmosphere as he travels to a new, unexplored world. Fortunately, he has the help of the Pikmin, aliens who take the form of sticks and skeletons. The challenge forces Olimar to take on the Pikmin to retrieve his lost ship while battling strange and sometimes hostile plants and animals.
There are three classes of Pikmin, each with a unique ability. Red Pikmin are immune to fire, while Blue Pikmin can swim, and Yellow Pikmin can create fire from a distance. Challenge Mode will be unlocked after finding all the Pikmin types in the Story Mode. In this mode, the goal is to catch as many Pikmin as possible in one day.
