Game Description
You've crashed on an alien world, and your ship flew into pieces upon landing. Your goose is pretty much cooked, but as you start looking around, you notice that the plants are ... moving! Pikmin puts you in the shoes of a stranded astronaut who must figure out how to communicate with (and eventually command) the intelligent native flora, called Pikmin, in order to survive. Use the special abilities of the cute little Pikmin to explore the planet and find the pieces of your ship. You're under a strict time limit on a planet with 15-minute "days", so hurry!
