As an alien, you've crash-landed on a strange new world populated by multi-colored ant-like creatures called Pikmin. With the aid of the Pikmin you must find the pieces of your ship. In return you must help the Pikmin survive in their harsh world. Assign them a variety of tasks (fighting off enemy creatures, building, resource collecting) during the day and have them carry treasure back to their homes before sunset. Interact with the lush 3D environments.
