Pikmin was a game series I really knew nothing about before playing it these last couple of months. To be completely honest I thought it looked a bit cute, but had seemingly boring gameplay....

HOLY SHIT I COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE WRONG.

This game is possibly the scariest cutest game I've ever played and each mission you do feels like it could be your last.
I could not tell you how many times I shit my pants when I was 10 seconds away from leaving the area and the game told me i was missing pikmin.
And if you dont save them? You get to watch as your mistakes are played right infront of you!
The gameplay is so calm, yet can easily get complicated. Shit happens, and its your job to master your dandori skills to save all these people! Otherwise, who will?
The sound design in this game really makes you appreciate those quiet times though, the simplest task going right will make you smile .
This game will make you smile, but it will also probably scare and scar you for life!
PLEASE PLAY IT!!!!!!!
(oh and you KNOW im playing that post game stuff too..)
