Pikmin Bloom Positive Reviews

Pikmin GoEvery time someone asks me what this game is, I tell them it’s basically Pokémon Go, but with Pikmin instead. And it is, but I actually enjoy this game a lot more than I did Pokémon Go. The biggest difference is that the main focus is on the steps you take, making it a great exercise motivator. But the other thing I like about it is that you don’t have to go to specific places to get the different Pikmin (I believe Thomas Sanders made a joke about traveling halfway across the world to get an Arcticuno…) You do have to go to different places to get some of the more special Pikmin, but it’s general places that should be near most people such as bakeries, salons, and Ramen places. The other thing I like about that aspect of the game is that you don’t have to constantly have the app open to find the Pikmin either, you simply walk around and it saves the Pikmin that you find for you to go collect whenever you have time. The one complaint that I have is that there’s only one way to earn coins, which is through planting flowers, and it’s very slow. I’d say on average I earn about 8 coins a day and the cheapest thing in the store is about 100 coins so… it takes a while to earn enough to do anything useful with them. I understand that games have to make money somehow, but as someone who really doesn’t have cash to spend on mobile games, it’s pretty frustrating. Overall though, it’s a great game and I love walking places now instead of dreading it..Penguins 4 evaVersion: 78.0

Level 15 and Unlocked all Basic FeaturesI really enjoy this charming game. It’s pros are things I don’t enjoy about Niantic’s flagship Pokémon Go. Being that Pickmin have no inherent CP rating, pulling and naming Pickmin feels more rewarding, as you will never have to put any of your Pickmin in a candy blender. Additionally, there isn’t a push to play so that you don’t miss out on new content. You can tackle the quests at your own pace and interact with seedlings and Pickmin at your behest. Additionally, sending your Pickmin on fetch quests and watching them walk toward map locations in real time is quite cute. However, there is still more from the Pickmin side of things that I would like to see. One cool idea that uses previous Niantic features would be battling the series’ famous monsters. In this iteration, however, you would throw Pickmin like a Pokeball at the monster to attack. Hitting the sweet spot could mean your Pickmin takes less damage or doesn’t die. Type resistance could also be used from the main games. In reality, that is one core concept I would like to see. Eventually, I’m sure I will have the max of 300 Pickmin. I think it would really add to the game to feel a sense of responsibility for one’s Pickmin and helping them not die from monsters like the console counterparts. Just please, Niantic, whatever you do don’t give Pickmin CP..Harrison LongmoreVersion: 33.3

Good game, but I found a bugSo, i played this game expecting it to be another idle stepcounter, but it’s different. You pick up things from your Pikmin and use them to get more or change the flowers on your current ones. The game is great and i had a lot of fun with it so far, but…what prevents me from giving it five stars is the bug i encountered. See, i wanted more Pikmin so i walked until two new ones i got were ready to pluck, but i wasn’t leveling up as a friend who recommended the game to me warned about. Curious, i went to the level screen where i was given an overview of the level system and told i needed 500 total steps to do so. I had about 1000 at that point. I figured “okay, if i do 500 steps then i’ll be back to normal, right?” No matter how many steps i took, that number never went any higher. It stayed stuck at 0. I hope the devs see this; i’d really hate to need to restart and do things in a very specific order to proceed. I think i broke the sequence they wanted players to go through and that’s why i’m getting this bug. Not even restarting the app or my phone worked. Though, if you want a relaxing game to have on in the background while you walk around, then by all means get this game. It’s relaxing and fun, especially with AR mode. I just hope another bug patch is implemented to fix whatever sequence break i happened to glitch the game out with..LinkFan37Version: 33.3

Helping me a lot through a tough time.This came out right as I’m going through the hardest part in my life so far, especially mentally, and to my surprise being able to use this app has been a bit helpful for that. Let alone the nice feelings of having excuses to go for walks, my favorite thing is actually the “journal” feature the game has, and it’s been very nice to have so far since I’ve been using it a bit to keep track of my progress in improving myself mentally every day, alongside the other positive parts of seeing where I’m going on this journey with my Pikmin. I would love to see this expanded upon a bit, but at the very least would appreciate some minor changes, such as being able to add more than one text post, and a fix to navigating the text being somewhat clumsy. (Doesn’t seem to support any features of the system keyboard such as autocorrect and the 3D-touch scroll). I would like to see sharing options for friends being added to that feature as well, but it for sure needs options for privacy too, especially for the kind of situation I’m in, where a lot of that info should stay private primarily but would like to share with one or two friends specifically I’m comfortable showing that too..Dr. YayVersion: 33.3

Fun stepcounterI’m level 8 and intent to get farther, so far it’s really just walk and I pull up Pikmin and collect some berries and stuff, it’s cute, I don’t feel useful in game yet but I think I’m around the corner, I play Pokémon go as well so it’s kinda a nice one to have in the background to count and still progress good. You definitely need a phone that counts steps to play, as I’m seeing reviews saying they can’t progress so it makes sense. I would rate it 5 stars but as others said, it’s pay to play basically, you can’t get expansion slots to anything without real money, and the coins you can earn are frankly ridiculous, and no real use for those coins. Currently I don’t mind Pokémon Go’s system to earn coins and get expansions with them, yes I still spend plenty of real cash but I like the option and I like to cut my cost by earning some, so in this one not having that just feels like a turn away from the right direction, cause it’s a flat fee, I tend to throw a 20 at it cause it’s a better deal on coins so I get more expansions. Enough ranting about that, the game itself is why your reading thing? The game is fun if you like their other games, if you didn’t like it, then you won’t like this, it’s that simple. Tho unlike their other games, this one is a lot slower on screen, it’s very focused on walking so even healthier I guess..Greed54245Version: 33.3

Love Pikmin Bloom! 🌱🌼Pikmin Bloom is my favorite mobile game! I’ve been playing daily since launch in October 2021. I enjoy traveling and I adore that my little buddies are like memories of all the places I’ve been these last 2+ years. Some aspects of the game frustrate me like region locked exclusives and the heavy mushroom requirements in events that can block you from progressing as quickly as you’d like. But other than that, this game only gets better with time. It seems the developers do take into account what their users are asking for and slowly make improvements over time. One of the best additions they’ve made in the games is that we now have “bullhorns” which allows you to invite friends to help you defeat mushrooms. I have a friend who almost never leaves home so before this she couldn’t help me with mushrooms and I felt annoying asking other friends and family to go find the mushroom I’d started and join it. Now I get invitations from friends in other countries to join mushrooms and I have opportunities to obtain lovely postcards I’d otherwise never get! Adore the Pikmin franchise and this was the perfect addition! I, along with many others, hope that Ice and Glow Pikmin are in the near future of the game 🙏🧊❇️.BrittibleVersion: 87.0

I’m in love with this game! A bug that’s been bugging me though…I cannot stress how grateful I am for past me downloading Pikmin Bloom. I was at a point in my life where I was just looking for any motivation to get my legs moving, and boy did this deliver. I’ve been playing since early November and I’m so overjoyed with the improvement in my quality of life. That being said, one of my favorite features of the app is that it has a daily logbook. It motivates me to take nice pictures and fill it like a tiny scrapbook. BUT… there seems to be an issue with keeping the images. I’ll upload an image and attach a caption, but after a week (or sometimes just a few days) the image gets deleted and only the caption remains. I’ll reupload the images every now and then, but it doesn’t last super long before they get deleted again (strangely enough, the caption sticks around; it’s just the image which goes missing.) I LOVE Pikmin Bloom. I am so eager to keep growing my pikmin family and keep getting out there and exploring. I just want this little issue to be resolved so that I can look back on my daily logs and not scratch my head at wherever the images went lol. I don’t delete them from my phone, so why do they go missing after a while?.HelloPrincessMoodyVersion: 34.0

Obnoxiously addictive for a simple concept.Though the content within is mite lacking, it does incentivize walking around with minimal effort. You walk to get fruits, you use those fruits to get nectar, you use the nectar to plant flowers, and you plant flowers around big blooms to get more fruit. It’s an endless cycle but a fun one at that. There’s also a unique decoration system that changes depending on where the pikmin was born, incentivizing you to get out of the small bubble and explore around to gather more decos for your pikmin. Honestly the best part about this game is that the microtransations aren’t predatory in the slightest, unless you play too often. Even then it can be managed with the base upgrades in the long run. The only negatives is that Roadside decorations are hilariously common and feel like a waste of time once you’ve seen the same letter with the same color for the 55th time. And the fact that it absolutely eats the everloving crap out of your battery, but hopefully this can be patched later on in its life. Overall while not really needing to carry the pikmin mantle, I’m glad this is the franchise niantic settled on to represent. Would recommend for some offhand fun..E.D. AfrochanVersion: 33.4

Very fun but…I was very excited to see something new, Pikmin related. I just started playing and I’m having fun with it. It’s concepts are very creative! I don’t know what it is, but for me collecting Pikmin is way more satisfying than catching a Pokémon in Pokémon Go. It’s cool to see your collection grow as you walk more. Very rewarding. Now here’s what I want added to this game. The game is pretty good at the moment, but I want a bit more variety. Sending your Pikmin on expeditions is cool, but I want more uses for them. First off, similar to the Pokéstops, maybe there could be treasures scattered around the map. Treasure collecting was one of my favorite concepts in Pikmin 2, and I would love to see that here. And maybe some of the more rare treasures require more Pikmin to carry it. That would be another great reason to boost your army. Also, I would love to see enemies on this game. On the map, there can be occasional creatures like bulborbs. And you can challenge it. You use your Pikmin to fight the bulborb, and swipe the screen to throw them like in Pokémon go. These enemies could drop some cool rewards like treasures, fruits, and Pikmin planters. This game has quite a lot of potential, and if you add some of these features to the game it would really make it a better experience!.KrancherVersion: 33.4

Let’s revive Pikmin!! Major suggestions!!!Pikmin was one of my most faveriot childhood games, and we have not seen a Pikmin game in such a long time. I believe this game could show Nintendo that Pikmin 4 needs to come out!! If you want your app to grow rapidly, let me give you some ideas. Growing Pikmin is fun, but more gimmicks are needed. How about like Pokémon gyms and stops, you have a way to battle with your Pikmin. Enemies could drop loot, and like the original Pikmin games, the bigger and badder the enemy the more expensive loot. Maybe have a trophy case with the loot, or have the loot to be sold for coins, which could upgrade your backpack or outfit. I would love to see bosses, and how in Pikmin you can build bridges with tiles, how about a habitat where you have Pikmin build bridges, and playgrounds for them to play with instead of just a screen with grass on it. How about buried treasure that requires a certain amount of one type of Pokémon to dig up the treasure. Like the blue Pikmin are required to dig up greaser stuck in a lake, or red Pikmin are required to dig up treasure in a fire. Adding more game mechanics will get people hooked to the game just like they got hooked to Pokémon go..FlocasterVersion: 33.4

Great "game!"Going into this, I honestly expected it to be either a glorified pedometer or another Pokemon GO ripoff, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was somewhere in the middle! It is, for all intents and purposes, "Pedometer app: Now with badges!!!1!" Meets Pokemon GO... But in a good way. It helps take focus away from the "game" itself and more on actually going for a walk. As I've heard many people say, Pokemon GO, while still getting one into the world, requires a lot of attention in order to see where the wild Pokemon or pokestops or gyms are, but Pikmin Bloob doesn't try to do anything over exciting... And it works! It's a "game" designed to get you to look away from your phone. However, you probably noticed the fact that I have continuously put game in quotes, and that's because... Well, it just doesn't really feel like a game to me. And we'll I am aware that at the time of me writing this Pikmin Bloom has only been out for around a week, I feel like there's a lot more they could have done to make it feel more like an interactive walking experience and less like a pedometer with badges..Richeese GorgonzolaVersion: 33.4

Way better than Pokémon GoThis game is the best in every way :) It knows exactly what kind of fan service Pikmin fans want and delivers the cute 100% with decor pikmin, special flower types, and unique little animations when you click on them. It feels so great to add more Pikmin to your squad and the challenges you have to overcome are usually not too difficult. Of all the fitness apps out there, this is the only one that has successfully encouraged me to go out of my way to go outside and explore places outside of my daily routine. The best part is Community Day, which asks you to walk 10k steps to receive a special badge. I always end up going somewhere unique and having an unforgettable time on Community Days :) I’ve been playing since November and not only are there still tons of new surprises & discoveries to be made in the app, but they are updating constantly. Just recently they added sushi and snack decor, which I’m stoked to find :D Like Pokémon Go there are also interactive events, which I unfortunately haven’t been able to participate in yet but I’m looking forward to the next one! Overall an extremely wholesome app that is beneficial to your physical AND emotional happiness :).13582837401Version: 44.0

Play it passively for the best experience!I’m loving this game, I just found a toothbrush Pikmin as a pet of the pharmacy collection and I was absolutely in love with the design. The step counter and day logging is fantastic and I’d love to see you expand upon that experience. It be great to see the miles walked too so I could use it as a gauge for how far I’ve gone since I’ve started a walk. I do think the friends feature needs some love. It be great if you put access to friends n the front page so it be easy to find. Maybe make a Pikmin post office and it could be coupled with your postcard collection and your “Pikmin-dex”. Also, I loved stickers in Pokémon go so it be great if you could have a sticker collection system too. It be special to have a postcard and a stamp collection and then choose which special Pikmin takes it to your friends. Maybe with stickers it can be the cost to attach a berry or two as a gift. I just really want the social features to go beyond what was in Pokémon go. I think there great. Also, it crashes whenever I open the stock camera and there’s no way to mute the music..Nate88KingVersion: 33.4

Adorable, fun, better than Pokemon Go IMOI personally enjoy this more than Pokémon Go mainly because you don’t have to constantly be on the app while walking and your steps still count towards something. I’m not a hardcore Pokémon go user for a lot of reasons and one of them is the fact that you have to be staring non-stop at your phone with your head down while walking out in public to utilize the app which I don’t do for a multitude of reasons. Pikmin Bloom is cute and I find myself continuing to be motivated to get more Pikmin, fill their hearts and send them on their journeys to get their little gifts…even if 90% of them are stickers with a letter on them. It would be cool if you could trade Pikmin, if only for the sake of obtaining a decor you like/want in exchange for a decor that your friend really wants, not for the goal of maxing out CP or anything in the way that people trade in Pokémon go, I’m not a huge fan of that. The concept of planting flowers around your neighborhood and anywhere you go when you walk is so wholesome and feels more rewarding than just collecting stuff..AJ490749272Version: 84.0

Wish I could do more challengesI love Pikmin I’ve played every installment of the franchise I downloaded this game just because of my love for the little guys. So far I’m having a great time with this app even more then Pokémon go the only thing I wish I could do was do more challenges. I recently just got to the point where I can take down big mushrooms and it’s been cool getting the little fruit or stuff when there done it’s super fun. When I couldn’t do another challenge like that due to my Pikmin being tired I tried to switch out my squad hoping that would let me continue but sadly that wasn’t the case. So it kinda sad to see a challenge there and I can’t play it yet my Pikmin can go on as many expeditions as there are available. I hope in an update soon I can do as may challenges as I can expeditions other then that the game has been a simple joy to play I also wish how it counts ur steps near the end of the day u get like a prize every mile stone u pass like one nectar or after ten thousand steps get a random pikmen or something.Jodasamurai2Version: 36.0

Excellent game, could use some minor tweaksOverall this is an excellent and fun game to encourage exploration and being more physically active. I love collecting all the different types of pikmin and blooming a variety of flowers. This game is very well polished. My only complaint are some minor tweaks that could improve gameplay. 1) a way to organize pikmin by color on the main pikmin page itself. Currently you can only do this during an expedition and it can make things clunky if you are wanting swap in certain colors into your squad outside of expeditions. 2) more decor pikmin! The decor pikmin are excellent and honestly what I love most about the game and what keeps me exploring. I’m always excited to get a new cafe or beach pikmin. I love their designs and they always bring a smile to my face in their little costumes. However, I worry that in a few months of actively playing the game I will run out of unique pikmin to find. I think there is a lot of room to expand the types of decor pikmin, such as gym pikmin holding weights or wearing sweat bands, or taco stand or other food groups outside of burgers, hospital pikmin wearing masks or stethoscopes. There are so many great ideas!.AbitsheepishVersion: 36.1

Better than Pokémon goWhat I love about this is that you get to unlock things the more levels you gain and the farther you get into the game you can get different kinds of pikmin even special rare ones no lag or glitch nothing is wrong with the app great step counting app we’re you can also have your pikmin beat big muchroom you can plant and bloom flowers get friends send them postcards see them in the game if you plant flowers than go back in flowers and press with others you can see them plus there are quest flower pots if you get enough steps you can pluck out a pikmin you can get extra pots and the more you progress in the game your pikmin will bring you gifts and every day you play the gifts get just a little bit better you can feed them nectar and press there flowers for that stuff I forgot what it’s called tho by the way love your game keep on adding updates and working on the game don’t give up don’t listen to people who don’t like it keep on pushing until they do! Than you for making this game its a total day changer :D download guys!.GdsynhurxhmiydVersion: 33.3

Absolutely PleasantFrom when I first started Pikmin Bloom, I was enraptured by its charm and personality. It has nestled its way into my daily routine. This app works so well for me and what I need. I’ve needed motivation to get out more, and I’ve been exploring my new city after moving. From constantly planting, growing, and feeding my little Pikmin friends, I look forward to the new adventure each day brings. While I have played other AR games, I find this more than any other is a pleasant motivator to go on walks and explore. While there are times I stop and interact with AR elements in the world, much more of my time is spent actually just moving. I adore the little journal entries at the end of each day. There is a spot for little notes and it compelled me to write a haiku to remember the day by. Sometimes it’s about a novel interaction from the day, and other times it’s about my admiration for my little Pik friends. This app has brought me so much joy and warmth. I can only hope that others will find the same elation I have with Pikmin Bloom..Yeti2RockVersion: 73.0

Almost perfect… just a few things they could add/changeI really do love Pikmin Bloom, in fact I have gotten others to join me in it and it is fun to destroy mushrooms together and send postcards back and forth. The things I wish were different are that I wish you could send friends things other things besides postcards (and that don’t cost actual money) like I had extra mushroom tickets or an over abundance of nectar that I would have loved to have been able to share the wealth. Also, although I enjoy joining other random people on their mushroom adventures, I wish I could send friend requests to my fellow mushroom hunters and get to know more people in my area via the app! I mean, it’s supposed to be a social game, right? I would also love it if gaining coins was a little easier, I don’t need to drown in coins, but I feel like it is beyond hard to get them without paying for them. Those things would make the game perfect. I do appreciate the daily free packs and the new challenges to get stuff. Keep it up!.Fruitfly20Version: 70.0

Good game!I love pickmin bloom, I just love pickmin! Can you add creature cards? So creature cards are collectible cards that never wear out and can start a battle with a pickmin predator (If your pickmin die, you lose points, not lose the pickmin), you don’t get more pickmin, but you can get seedlings. So there’s very common, common, uncommon, rare, legendary, and mythical, 2 very common make a common, 2 commons make a uncommon, ect. Also pease make a expedition for a boss card after you get all the cards in a rarity (boss cards are just creature cards but there bosses instead of normal opponents), and the card rarity is judged by difficulty, the more points you end with, the better rewards you get. And lastly can you give the person a in-game interactive house that you can get things to decorate (the decor pickmin give you special figures, and normal pickmin give you normal figures, and every first type of pickmin give you a figure of them). Thanks for reading my (very very very) long explanation. But this is a great game! It’s one of my favorites. Bye and thanks!👋.YtyrkdbfVersion: 54.0

Mildly fun game potential to be amazingThere are three main features to this game 1 ) Collecting decor pikmin, this is the process of raising pikmin until their friendship level is maxed out and then they’ll put on a little costume based on their place of origin. For example if you find a pikmin by the train station they’ll have s train themed costume. 2 ) Mushroom raiding, there are giant mushrooms in your town that you can send your pikmin to destroy. After defeating the mushroom they will come back with various items. 3 ) Blooming buds into flowers, there are giant buds around your town, you have to walk around the bud and plant mini flowers until the bud blooms into a gigantic flower. After it blooms you are rewarded with various items. The only reason I play is to collect all the decor pikmin… I find the other two features I mentioned extremely boring, too repetitive, it doesn’t feel immersive. Niantic needs to add new features and polish their existing features or this game will not have longevity which is a shame. Features like combat and adding enemies to the game would be great. Everything considered, Pikmin Bloom is a solid 3 out of 5 stars with so much room to improve..Farooq8663567Version: 51.1

Pikmin Bloom ReviewThis is the best mobile app I’ve played in years! Although that’s not saying much lol. Pikmin is one of my favorite video game franchises ever, so I’m always excited to see new games being made. And seeing this announced on the 20 year anniversary of Pikmin just brightened my entire day. And on top of that, this game is just genuinely amazing. Walking around planting flowers and growing Pikmin is so incredibly fun. And all the different types of decor Pikmin are awesome. Their costumes are so cute! Plus, even when I’m not out walking, I can send Pikmin on expeditions and challenges which is really useful. My only real issue with the game is the coins. It’s really difficult to get coins by planting flowers, and the only other way is to buy them, and well… I’m really not a fan of micro-transactions. However, that doesn’t change the fact that this game is absolutely amazing and I enjoy playing it so much! Amazing job Nintendo and Niantic! (Btw Nintendo if you’re reading this, please make Pikmin 4! I would be so insanely happy if that happened!).Pikmin WorldVersion: 36.0

Amazing game but one thing I would like addedI’ve started playing just about a month ago and I love this game I’ve played quite a bit of the actual Pikmin games on the GameCube and switch and stoked for Pikmin 4 so I’m not diving into the game headfirst but honestly, you really don’t need to know basically anything about Pikmin to play this game. The Pikmin are cute and it makes it feel like every walk is a goal to accomplish. I would highly recommend this game. Now for the one thing I would like to add. Now sometimes I forget my phone at home and I can bummed out because I was just in a parade yesterday for a maple festival and I forgot my phone. I could have easily grown some Pikmin but I didn’t have my phone. However, this problem could be fixed for the people who have Apple Watches I feel like because it can already track your steps and stuff. This would a huge game changer and would like to see it added. Other a 10/10 game. Thanks for creating a Pikmin mobile game!.WeirdpersonatorVersion: 68.1

Avid Niantic playerSo I’ve played Ingress. Not really my jam. I play Go prolifically. I’ve played Wizards Unite but it’s boring as heck and I’m not surprised they’re killing the game early next year I decided to try this one. First it doesn’t track steps as well as Go. I look on one app versus the other and it barely registers my steps. Two the Ingress portals are not all available on Pikmin. In fact very few. The portals or poke stops and gyms should be universal. Especially to loyal players that know where all of these spots are located. I seriously bought my home knowing I was within walking distance to 6. So it’s disappointing to see in Pikmin that I can’t reach any of the 6. They just aren’t there. Instead the closest to me are in high traffic areas that are not the most safe due to the transient population. No, I’m not saying all homeless are the scourge of society. I’ve been accosted by enough in my area to know that mental illness is a real problem among the homeless. I’ve also questioned why I don’t see the aliens they clearly can see. But I digress. Open all the portals in Pikmin please! I spent months looking for the perfect home..JeNnCeSsVersion: 33.4

It’s awesome and super fun but two issuesIt’s a fun game that really gets you through a long game but I think it would really benefit us and Nintendo if we had boss fights and ice pikmin, I think that for ice pikmin you could unlock them at level 25 or 26 cause I love them a lot. I would also love to see a boss fight feature where sometimes flowers will be attacked by famous pikmin bosses that will have a difficulty system like sometimes you will have like a bulborb as a tier one enemy blocking the flower or the titan dweevil as like a tier five enemy, and you can play solo with others. I know there is a big pikmin can’t die in this game rule so what if there is like a time limit where you only have a small amount of time to beat the enemy before it’s over and the boss throws all the pikmin off it and onto your screen as they slowly slide off it. Honestly besides these things I love the game but their is not much content and I think these would really make the game more fun. -Eli Seton.Dont buy this is evilVersion: 78.0

I’m a fanBeen playing for a few years, love collecting all the different types so pickmin, my fav are the holiday ones. Halloween especially! This app makes walking a little more fun and sometimes pushes me to walk and move more. I love the quick little reflection it does at the end of the day. Select a face that fits the mood of the day- happy, sad, or neutral. You can add a pic or a few, and if you’re in the mood you can write a little bit. If not no worries, and it records your steps at the end of the day! I love to journal and have kept one most of my life, but for someone who doesn’t journal this could be a great way to get into it or try it out to see if you like it! An Apple Watch or Fitbit make the app a lot better- I think they’re more accurate then my phone @ counting steps. Only thing i would like to change: Would love it if I was able to add the people who join me when I’m destroying mushrooms to my friends. Idk why that’s not an option. And cuter free clothes and avatar accessories… but mainly the adding friends thing..CN💋Version: 64.0

Good game but could use moreIt’s a fun game and I like playing it since I feel too late to join the Pokémon Go train. However, I would like to see more mechanics added to it, as it feels less addicting than finding Pokémon to collect. Maybe adding a mechanic like you have to gauge the timeframe to send Pikmin out on expeditions so that they arrive before sunset, otherwise they risk being eaten by monsters, like in the Pikmin games. Or like have some stops include puzzles for you to figure out with your Pikmin or surrounding players. Maybe places that have more flowers planted within them get special bonuses. I’d like to see more different types of Pikmin and for earning coins to be easier to actually buy items like the slots in the shop because I have so many seeds to plant. Just feels like it needs more. Thinking more incentive to collect or compete like Pokémon Go or more little things to do, more details added, similar to a life sim like Animal Crossing. I hope the devs read this and it doesn’t get lost in the sea of reviews..Anmue777Version: 33.4

Excellent pedometer based game!This game, while retaining somewhat similar mechanics in certain areas, has a completely different base mechanic in that it revolves entirely around step count, and walking, unlike PGo using distance travelled as it’s base metric. Through the week it serves as mainly a pedometer and something to do during downtime, breaks or lunch. However, in my free time it has completely transformed how I spend big chunks of my free time. I’m constantly looking for new area to explore and walk through to keep things fresh, as well as find unique Decor variants. I’m almost always looking for a good place to start a Pikmin day when I’m out and about, and pushing my step counts ever higher and for longer periods. This also works really well being that my wife still plays PGo, and is always willing to go hunting for ‘mon while I’m planting up some ‘min. If you’re a fan of walking, Niantic mobile games, pedometry, exploring your local area, or are maybe just looking to boost your physical output daily in a fun, cute, very enjoyable way I very much recommend giving Pikmin Bloom a shot. The monetized portions are EXTREMELY not necessary but are there if you don’t mind tossing a couple dollars to Nindy to save a bit of grinding. Well done Niantic and Nintendo, and the Devs. I expect much more content to be added down the line, it seems a bit threadbare right this minute, but still has lots to do and many levels to grind through. Enjoy!.Shill1986Version: 36.0

Fix Mushroom Battle Privacy!I’ve been loving all the updates. They’ve motivated me to walk and get out more. I don’t mind that the mushroom battles got harder. It’s just incentive to keep going and growing. However, the new mushroom battle format needs a privacy update ASAP. My Mii has always looked like me. I LIKE that it looks like me. It’s fun to play Mario Kart as a family with everyone using their own likeness. I don’t use my real name in the game but I’m seeing lots of people who do. Having someone appear at a mushroom for 9+ hours with their real name or even just their likeness is a huge privacy concern for me. I had to change my Mii on Nintendo just so my avatar wouldn’t look like me to battle a mushroom. I don’t mind working together on a mushroom but I want to be able to do so anonymously. It’s one thing for my Mii to look like me on a game server with international players or friends and family. It’s quite another thing to show up on a map with a person’s name and likeness for hours on end next to their residence, school or place of work where most of play most frequently..HapgoodblahVersion: 59.0

Great but….First thing wrong, this WILL drain your battery FAST! So, if you have plans on playing this game for long extended periods of time… have a few external batteries handy. 2- tracking is off. Not like Pokémon Go, but I like how there’s a massive map with the streets if you zoom out. I have noticed that once I hit level 7, the game started giving me the dreaded “failed to connect to server” issue. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game to find it is in fact, NOT MY PHONE! Luckily I saved all my data and linked to an account, but I had two groups of Pikmin out on an expedition. As expected with a new game… there are a lot of bugs, but there are also a lot of possibilities I can see with this game! Let’s hope it doesn’t turn out like Harry Potter: Wizards Unite… and shut down. Niantic, please, update the server issues and continue to add to this game as well. It’s good to have two games similar to each other. What I like about this game that I wish Pokémon Go had. The expedition feature. It’s nice to be able to send Pikmin out to a spot and wait for them to return with the goodies. Without having to hit a stop everyday to keep a streak up. But, I understand that the games are the way they are to make them separate and unique. Perhaps there’s a way to incorporate expeditions into Pokémon Go? Regardless, this game is fun and cute. Nice to pass the time, visually appealing and nostalgic!.BtabcVersion: 33.3

Enjoying the app a lot, unfortunate audio issuesThis app isn’t perfect and it fits into the same niche as Pokémon go (natural considering it’s from the same devs), but I personally find it more enjoyable. It’s a much more casual experience, and I find it to be a cute at charming way to count steps. The gyms are replaced with these large flowers that everyone helps to grow, so there’s not much of a competitive aspect, but that doesn’t really seem like the point to me. Much like in Pokémon go there are certain upgrades like more space in your party or more growing slots locked behind micro transactions, but for a free phone app that I used to blow of steam in my spare time, I don’t mind (but I relatively enjoyed Pokémon go, and am a looooong time Pikmin fan, so it speaks to my personal interests). I haven’t been able to get the audio to work however, which is a big deal for me, but if/when that gets resolved, that would be my only major complaint solved. I say if you liked Pokémon go or games like that but are looking for a lighter, more relaxing alternative, it’s worth a shot at least!.ShwarlosVersion: 33.3

This is definitely good enoughThis game is awesome, I’m really addicted. It doesn’t help that I love going outside and walking in nature. Gives me more reason to do so. The only complaints I have is that it has a plethora of bugs and visual glitches. These will be fixed with time though. My other complaint though, is that the coins are too difficult to get. You have to consecutively plant 500 flowers without stopping to receive 1 coin. The cheapest thing in the shop is 50 coins (50 white flower petals). That means, that in order to afford this relatively easy item to obtain, you would need to plant 25,000 flowers, or about 60,000 steps. The coin system needs some serious balancing. Otherwise, this game is wonderful, and unlocking each color makes walking the most addicting thing ever. I’m 5 weeks in and I have about 309,000 steps in total. I’m already level 30 and I am in love with this game I do recommend, for all ages.JahrfyreVersion: 34.0

Pokemon Go but laid backI picked this game up a year ago and kinda fell off for a while, but the game still kept track of all my walking progress so when I opened it, I was able to get a head start on leveling up on where I left off. This game also allows you to go at your own pace while giving a bit more of a push to get out and explore in turn for rewards. No matter what task you do, you'll always be leveling up your pikmin to fight mushrooms, and there's a plethora of seasonal/monthly events that makes sure you'll never fall too far behind. I picked this game back up during summer of 2023 at level 7 and I'm all the way at level 46 today! If you ever need a game that keeps you busy while rewarding you for your efforts, this is definitely the game for you! I wholeheartedly suggest trying it out regardless of whether you have background knowledge of Pikmin as a whole or not.Juloxia FazbearVersion: 83.0

Good game but what if more could be in itWell imma be honest I’m a pretty big Pikmin fan and to see it be this type of game was pretty fun something I liked on mobile for new people to enjoy neat. But it didn’t feel like a Pikmin game though my first thought was well if it’s Pikmin where’s the enemy’s like Bulborbs Wolly wogs Firey Blow hogs the water wraith. (No I’m kidding screw that enemy) or like really anything I feel the absence of the enemy’s in Pikmin bloom really makes the game feel like just a walking simulator if enemy’s were added to let’s say give a break just from doing walking and actually adding some strategy with the types we got in the game it could work as like how Pokémon go does their enemy Encounters. It would be nice to have a walking game have at least some strategy to it since pikmin has always been that a strategy and somewhat time management game. But anyways insanely good game I hope enemies get added in the future..Quirrel07Version: 71.1

This App Is Amazing!I think this app is AMAZING!!! At first I downloaded this app because I thought the little plants were adorable. However after opening the app and engaging in it, I realized it was so much more. You can not only use it to encourage you self to walk around in which you can grow adorable little plants. But, you can also journal on this app. At the end of the day, it tells you how many steps you have taken and where you all walked to and planted flowers ( which everyone in your community can see your flowers that you have planted as you walk which is so cool ). It also asks you how your day was and gives you the ability to write a short paragraph about your day. In this you can add photos so you can look back and remember what you did that day. So I highly recommend this app to anyone interested in journaling or even just cute little plants that follow you around :).EnableWonderVersion: 36.1

Definitely better than Hey! PikminEven though it’s just an enhanced step counter, this game definitely feels more like a Pikmin game than Hey! Pikmin. I understand so much of the upgrades costing real money as it’s only been out for a week and a half, and they are trying to get revenue off of it. However, I hope they add collectible “treasures” like in Pikmin 2. Its be a great thing to have besides from collecting costumes for Pikmin. I still give it a five star because I can see a lot of potential for this. But only time will tell! However, I’ve seen all these bugs on the game from other reviewers, but my only bug is a very minor one that doesn’t affect anything: sometimes when I log in, the game will give me a notification saying that I am going too fast, when I’m sitting down at a table. That’s my only problem and I hope any readers will have a good day, thank you for taking the time to read this!.Golden Canary33Version: 33.4

Great game but I need bulbminThis is one of my favorite apps on my phone, and I love how you get to have your own Pikmin and care for them. There are all of the Pikmin types in Pikmin 1-3! Or so I thought... The cutest Pikmin isn’t in this game. I wish that bulbmin were in this game but they sadly aren’t. I understand why since they are exclusive to caves in pikmin 2 but I thought of these special expeditions you could do where you send Pikmin to explore in caves for a small amount of time and there is a set chance of finding bulbmin or fruit. Using more Pikmin or different types can change the chance of finding bulbmin and fruit and the length of time it takes the Pikmin to go on the expedition. There is a minimum of 10 Pikmin to go on the expedition, but there can be less if you use rock or purple pikmin. I hope Nintendo or niantic sees this, because it would be so great if bulbmin made it into the game..Great but where’s bulbmin?Version: 75.0

Good game could use improvementsThis is a great game as we have played all of the Pikmin games, so when we saw this we had to give it a go. It is a great step counting interactive game, fun events, and has gotten my entire family out and moving. The improvements that I would love to see is having mushrooms spawn in more rural areas. I live in the outskirts of town and no mushrooms ever spawn within a 8 mile radius of us. We have to drive into town to battle mushrooms. I can pick things up and do basic seedling and fruit expeditions but that gets a little boring. If there was an algorithm to allow mushrooms or some other enemy to spawn in heavily flowered areas (our roads and back yard are absolutely full of flowers) that would be fantastic! It would add to the game so much more to have actual enemies added as mini expeditions (like seedlings, fruit, etc) instead of mushrooms. Seeing enemies such as Wollywogs, Bulbmin, and bulborbs would deeply add to the experience. To me it seems like it is a missing element to the game to be walking around and not seeing the natural enemies as you would in the game. Something needs to be added surrounding the flower planting and drawing stuff in. This is not a deal breaker for me entirely, but a lot of missed opportunities to use peoples steps and work planting worth their efforts. I would love to see a Bulborb pop up in my “garden” for me and my family to battle..JimSpieks87Version: 81.0

Good but major problemSo as a father most of my walks are with my kids or I enjoy a bike ride. Both seem to be a problem so let’s start with the first. When I go for a walk with my kids I use a stroller, this isn’t properly counting my steps or just not counting them at all (I assume this is because it’s assuming I’m in a car or something?). The next problem is bike ride, when I go on a bike ride I throw my phone in my backpack where it assumes I’m driving and also doesn’t calculate even my distance at this point. I really like this app but there are randomly spots on my map which can only be from when I took a break from riding my bike and the app decided that only that counts. Let me iterated that this app is quite enjoyable but these minor flaws missed me out on my badge today which minor, is quite upsetting. Hopefully next community day the app will consider stroller walking or bike rides as a common way to transport! Thank you!.Ooshma5Version: 33.4

Made for explorersWhen starting the game there is a stark lack of things to do but walk and wait to level up. Through the first new levels I honestly thought the game was still in beta or something since all I could do was watch my step counter go up. You have to be patient and wait for the fun to unlock as you gain more and more features as you progress. So far I’m level 12 and overall extremely happy with the speed of progressing being purely biased on how many steps you are willing to take. I will say if you want to collect all varieties of pikmin you will need to go to different types of stores and venture into the wilderness in hopes of getting a seed from a location with an outfit tied to it. Since I live in a city it’s extremely hard for me to find anything but roadside sticker pikmin. Overall a great game to get you outdoors exploring new places..LolzasourVersion: 33.4

Gets me up and walkingHaving decent fun with this game. Level progression seems fair enough through level 30. Higher levels are harder to achieve but no complaints. A couple things I’d change are the selection process of Pikmin when switching them from your active to standby. I’d like to select more than one at a time through click-and-drag the way you can select multiple photos on iPhone. The other thing is in regards to mushroom challenges. I think a “beacon” or “call-out” to other nearby users when attacking a Large mushroom by yourself would come in handy. I can easily coordinate with other users in my household but they’re not always around to help and having four empty slots for other users to join seems like a waste. Something along the lines of a request to other users with a timer or countdown to join the challenge should be a lot of help to people in suburbs or rural areas.SaulyballsVersion: 39.0

Can’t wait to see where it goes!I agree with others who say in some ways this is more satisfying than Pokémon Go. I live in a rural area in a farm so unless I’m “out” there isn’t much for me to do in Go except use the AR camera or hatch eggs. But with Pikmin Bloom it’s very fulfilling to see how far I’ve walked around my farm and filling it with pretty flowers. I really enjoy when I get to use the AR camera with amy games and I enjoy it with Bloom as well. I’ve taken some very cute pictures of my Pikmin out and about! It would be cool if they were more interactive or if you could find/buy items that they could interact with in the AR environment. One additional detail that I think would really make this app even more addicting is if the Pikmin had different personalities or anything to differentiate them and make them a little more unique. I know it’s in the early stages though so I’m just enjoying it now and looking forward to what’s next!.FloridafolkVersion: 33.4

Love this game as-is! Don’t change it!!I love this game because it encourages me to walk. (Currently Level 32 when I wrote this, so yeah, I’m walking!) I also love this game because there are no events that force you to play more than you can; you can play at your own pace. I also love that this is not a fighting game. Yes, you can send the little guys out to take out a mushroom, but that is it. PLEASE NIANTIC, keep this game this way forever!! DO NOT add events that force people to play. DO NOT add fighting and anything resembling aggression. This game does not need these things. It accomplishes what it needs to just fine— it gets me out walking, exercising, and out of the house. As with your other games (Wizards Unite, I’m looking at you), when you’re in constant event mode it burns people out. They stop playing because they are tired of events and you lose money. Consider that, please..AmitielVersion: 37.0

It has potentialWhile it’s not a 5 star game yet, it has the potential, with continued development. It’s a good motivator to walk. However, there’s a point (and I’ve hit it) where I can’t seem to collect any new decor even at places with a lot of variety. I haven’t seen anything that isn’t a roadside in weeks. More map refinement and decor types are needed. It sort of takes away from the motivation. And from a 20 year Pikmin console game fan, bring us more of the lore that made Pikmin so amazing. Onions and skitterleafs and bulborbs … maybe even (be still, my heart) bulbmin?.LisaPizza81Version: 37.0

Fun, but could definitely use more content.Something that I find is an issue, which will probably be fixed in the future, is that there isn’t a lot of content. I don’t know if there are still stuff not unlocked for me level-wise, but only being able to go on expeditions, which isn’t really gameplay and more of a waiting game, and sprouting those gigantic flowers, there isn’t really much else that is generally entertaining, as everything else is just not really as entertaining and is more of a slow grinding kind of task, and it’s a TINSY let down. Using Pokémon GO as example, you were able to battle people by using your Pokémon, and using abilities by doing things like swiping the patterns on screen, which was really fun, but fighting in this game (challenges) is just a stopwatch with a reward when the health is depleted. This is a mini-issue, something that can’t really be helped, but playing SOLO is a bit tedious and unfair. Challenges and planting flowers becomes a ton more challenging, and tedious, as now you have to do everything yourself, and with things like challenges, that isn’t really an option, but that’s just because I live in a smallish town. I get that this game is aimed towards multiplayer, so I cant really complain about it. (This game could become popular tomorrow for all I know anyway, surely there will be people to play with.) Despite some issues I have, I still find it a surprisingly fun game for how shallow it was content-wise. I still enjoyed getting my whole squad 4 hearts, trying to get them all cute accessories, and this game even made me become a bit more active! which is what matters in the end; I am satisfied, it just definitely could get better by adding more stuff to aim for, or to do. 3-5: Fun, but could use more content..A RandomGuy21Version: 34.0

AVATAR NEEDS UPGRADEI love the game but the avatar/mii should at-least have more clothes. Letting us customize face and hair separate, and having more options.

Game is Fun but Battery DrainerThe gameplay is very fun. But man, this app drains your battery like no other! Having it open and active on my phone for 10 minutes drained 25% of my battery and made my phone warm. Also, it causes intermittence in my Bluetooth signal, and has major lag within the game, causing slow down. Niantic needs to fix these issues (especially the battery draining) in order for players to be able to fully enjoy the game..Smileydude66Version: 36.1

SwagFirst review?.British timVersion: 33.3

Such a great game!Super cute— I much prefer the base mechanics to Poké Go, since you can get all the benefits no matter where you live, and everything is unlocked just by walking. It’s great to be able to put my phone away and walk without having to check it constantly. The one issue I have with the game is that some items in the shop (like capacity upgrades for flower petals or pikmin) can only be bought with real money, not in-game coins. Since coins take so long to save up, I don’t really see myself using them at all, since the majority of the shop items are easily obtainable through normal play..HdjdjfjskVersion: 36.0

Needs more optionsOkay so this game is cute and fun but after a while gets a little boring. Instead of just recycling unwanted Pikmin seedlings you should be able to sell those for coins to get more space/cool flowers or fruits/cool Pikmin etc etc. As it is there are very few ways to get coins and I’m not going to spend my own money to get things in a game lol. Also if the quests were a bit more interactive that would be fun.Cici16351837193Version: 33.4

Pikmin Bloom Negative Reviews

An amazing game turned awful overnightWhile myself and my partner have loved this game since day one, and spent many many dollars on in game purchases- we are leaving the game until they decide to make changes that allow expeditions to be suitable for users that do not live in densely populated areas. Mushroom challenges which used too take less than one minute now take up to 20 days to complete. Mushrooms have increased from 10s of thousands of HP to millions with no scaling of existing pikmin or challenge rewards. This is sickening to say the least. A once great game has turned in to an unusable product over night, and I’ve seen this opinion shared by EVERY SINGLE PLAYER that I follow online. HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of DAY ONE players have spoken out against this change, and niantic has unreceptive. Having 100%d pikmin 1-3, I think a solid approach would’ve been making very large, dangerous “boss” creatures with these mega HP bars. This invites collaboration, cooperation, and the sort of multiplayer niantic was aiming for. These challenges could have increased requirements and increased rewards. Mushrooms, challenges which in the mainline pikmin games are basically slimes, taking 20 days, though, is absolutely beyond comprehension. PLEASE FIX THIS. If the change becomes properly rebalanced, and a thought out implementation of the current challenge system is put into play, this game could easily become one of the best niantic has ever made..Hinleyw12Version: 60.0

Fun but HUGE bugThis game is super cute, but the only thing is I hardly have any incentive to play anymore because no matter what I do, my pikmin’s friendship levels WILL NOT go up. I have a purple Pikmin that I’ve taken on SEVERAL expeditions as well as some starred pikmin because I like to farm decor pikmin. It’s been a good week and NONE OF THEM have increased friendship level even a little bit. It shows the little heart above them when they come back from the expedition and I collect the item from them, but other than that, they show no signs of leveling up. It’s incredibly frustrating and makes me not really want to play the game if I can’t even get decor pikmin anymore. I’m not even having trouble with counting steps or anything, everything else in the game is working fine (other than the occasional glitch where two or more pikmin are in the EXACT same spot and clip through each other, but that’s just visually funny and doesn’t affect gameplay) but I CANNOT raise friendship levels. I’m not sure if anyone else is having this issue, but it’s incredibly frustrating since I’ve starred all the pikmin that are from places where they’ll get a non-sticker decor item. Its a fun game and doesn’t drain my battery as much as pokemon go, but this is very annoying and I don’t see the point if I cant even get decor pikmin.CassieRoseMinecraftStoryModeVersion: 36.0

Fun passive game, but absolutely trash performanceI’ve been playing this game since it launched on my iPhone 11 Pro. For the most part, it’s a pretty fun little game. It’s basically a gamified pedometer, but it has some neat features to encourage walking out and about in the world. Because it’s a passive game, there isn’t much to do; the joy comes from the exploration and seeing your personal achievements each day and week. Unfortunately, over the past couple of months, the game has become nearly unusable. There’s 10-, 15-second freezes for every action that I do in the game. I’ve tried logging out and logging back in, deleting and reinstalling the game, everything short of wiping my phone to start over. Nothing fixes it. So what should take a minute or so to do in the game takes five or more. I used to run flowers every time I walked outside, even if was a short trip to my car in a parking lot or to the bus stop. Now, it’s not even worth it. More than half of my journey is over by the time I get the game to work. Now that the weather is getting nicer, I’d love to play it more. Unless Niantic fixes the performance, and I don’t see that happening, then it’s going to be relegated to an “occasionally when I have time” type of game..DocDrea323Version: 91.1

Good concept but big issueSo, I’m chilling, looking around and see that there’s this new game by niantic called Pikmin bloom. Cool. I go and get it. Cooler. The game is great, but a big issue is that it is purchase able on an iPad. This may not seem bad, in fact, good. BUT. A thing about bloom is that it uses apple health to calculate your steps. A tiny kink in your plan, apple health was removed from iPads in 2018. Now, I get it is a game meant to be played on your phone, but niantic has already released Pokémon go that calculates your steps perfectly well and works perfectly fine on an iPad. Maybe they were in a rush, or it needed exact steps due to the exact step amounts needed to re-awaken the pikmin. None the less, good game, but they should remove it to be bought on iPads. My hope is that this ages like spoiled milk, and more people know about this. Niantic thought they could sneak the fact that the game just doesn’t on iPads work into the notes. But I see you. And I think you need to patch this, or find a way around it. Many who want to get this game are deterred by the fact it is just broken. Maybe you are working on the patch right now, but I just wanted to say that this needs to be told to more people..Kinda broken game guyVersion: 33.3

In game purchases gotten out of handI really enjoy this game, however they amount of coins they want for you to buy anything helpful has gotten expensive. In game they constantly have events to plant flowers, it it’s not easy to get flowers in areas that don’t have large flowers to bloom, thus making it near impossible to participate and complete the event unless you purchase flowers from the store. Then the premium pass for events I had a misunderstanding about and instead of listening to my feedback support didn’t listen to anything I was saying and closed the conversation as I was typing. What kind of support is that? Not a very nice nor helpful one. For 999 coins when it’s advertised you would receive a colored seedling of your choosing, it shouldn’t take you the entire duration of the event to get what you paid 999 coins for. Since they closed my conversation before I could respond here’s my review. Either what you pay coins for should actually be worth it or the cost should be reduced. I refuse to spend any more money on this game due to the rise in coin prices, I remember months back flowers did not cost 300 coins to buy also.UnHappyCamper12Version: 80.0

Great concept, but a really long way to goI just tried to add a note for the past day. It was limited to 300 characters and that was basically nothing to use it as a dairy. The note would be folded in the journal, too, so I think it’s definitely possible to allow multiple entries or a longer entry. I personally really like the concept, but sadly the map is pinned to your location so you can only see the flowers around you. Can there be a button that you can see the whole map, though might limited to 5 miles around you, or limited to the flowers that only you planted? I don’t like that you have to start a session in order to have your flowers planted. I think the app encourages people to take sessions of walking (fast walking, running, etc.) instead of the general walking steps. The flower planting is time-centered instead of distance/step-centered. I feel like there are not many things that you can do in the game. The flowers planted during a session were not even even if you are walking with a steady speed. Update: today I found that part of the flowers I planted disappeared from the map… wow.TheeeetreeeeeeVersion: 33.4

Another game Niantic only half thought ofThe bugs in the game, in true Niantic fashion the game loads slow at times or doesn’t load. Next you send Pikmin off to battle, sometimes for days and they come home with 3 nectar for a large mushroom. You get 30 nectar for doing a 1 minute walk and 3 for sending 20 some Pikmin for days to battle. Anywhere else you are paid extra for battle, not with Niantic, you are paid less. Then they want you to collect nectar from flowers, but the flowers are few and far between and they take forever to bloom. I have a Pokestop and gym by my house and I was hoping since I live in the country, one of those would become a big flower, but sadly no. My daughter and I are walking a mile in the morning and a mile at night to build strength in my total knee and the rest of my joints. It would be nice if Niantic kept country folk in thought when placing flowers and mushrooms. As I said in the beginning, this game was only half thought out. You would think Niantic learned from its mistakes from Pokémon Go, but it keeps making the same if not more mistakes..Bewitched43015Version: 67.0

Crashing problem, can’t playI selected to make an account with google than taken to the loading screen but when the bar on the bottom filled up about eight tenths the app crashes and I’m sent back to my apps screen. I can’t really give much more than 1 star since I can’t even play it..:/ game reviewVersion: 33.3

Stop emailing me…You are literally emailing me twice a day to tell me to download this app. Well you succeeded. I downloaded it just so I can rate you one star and now have deleted it. Spam does not equal profit..Dfpw007Version: 33.4

New mushroom battles…The new mushroom battles are awful, even on co-op… the commitment in duration is ridiculous. The star thresholds and mushroom health are way too high to be reasonable. Additionally, reducing the rewards for Small size mushrooms while vastly increasing the strength threshold to earn better results is simply lame. As a Lv 40 player, on a good day I would be able to collect 3-6 large fruits. With a friend on co-op, I would be able to collect 6 large fruits daily, guaranteed. It would be a process that would take five minutes to be done with! Now, squads sent out with the same initial conditions yield far less fruit and take much longer, ridiculously so, to complete. Having entire squadrons of pikmin gone for *days* at a time to earn LESSER rewards than the same group was able to earn in *thirty seconds* pre-update is just not good design. I’ve no other way to put it. The gameplay is a huge downgrade and is so much less enjoyable for so many players. I look around the community and the places they converge online, and I see that 98% of people have similar opinions: simply, this is bad, and prefer how it was before. It was simpler, much less of a time commitment, yielded better in-game rewards, and much more accessible for solo players. With the old system, one could complete all mushroom battles for the day in just a few minutes, satisfyingly. I will say that the UI changes and communication features, as well as the nectar option on the prep screen are all very good and convenient changes. That being said, the main change to the entire mushroom battle system is awful and genuinely upsetting for me and many others. The entire community is upset with this decision, and I’ve seen many people who are considering uninstalling because of it. Therefore we ask you to please consider our thoughts and feelings, and remake the mushroom battle system to be more enjoyable than it originally was, as opposed to how it is now: significantly less enjoyable and way more inconvenient. Thank you for your consideration..UltimateSmasherVersion: 59.0

Hmmmm…I was really looking forward to playing this, but when I try to sign in with my Nintendo account, it says something like, “You need permission to share your location. Ask for help from an adult to change location settings”. I set all my location settings in my account and on my phone for the game, to allow or always. Is this a bug or am I just being stupid?.Lmonk3y09Version: 33.4

Not too happyWith the new iOS update and the most recent update to Pikmin Bloom, when the Pikmin app is closed and you go and reopen it - the app automatically closes after a few seconds. I continuously have to uninstall and reinstall the app and it’s very annoying. My best friend has the same issue!.Swimfan*****Version: 91.0
