The Nintendo Switch is a hardware that allows Nintendo to popularize some of their hidden franchises like Animal Crossing. It's clear that Nintendo tried to do the same thing with Pikmin 4.

Describing Pikmin 4 is not an easy task. I can start by saying it's a real-time strategy game featuring little creatures that resemble ants. You control a captain who gives commands to these creatures, each with different characteristics. Your goal is to increase your army to allow you to carry more items, face enemies, and explore new places.

For me, Pikmin 4 is an easier game compared to the old ones. This new title is more accessible for any type of audience. Despite the old games being really hard and cruel sometimes, Pikmin 4 can be played by a child.

The game is really colorful, and the art and atmosphere are unique. There's nothing bad to say about this aspect of the game.

The only downside, for me, is the gameplay. I know I'm the only one complaining about this, but it was more enjoyable to control your army with the Wii U gamepad in Pikmin 3. It doesn't make Pikimin 4 bad, and if you never had the experience to play the failed Nintendo console, you won't understand what I'm talking about.

Pikmin 4 is a really good game and deserves more attention than it has. I highly recommend this game if you want to play something truly different from everything else.
