Pikmin Bloom: Walking Game

Our take

Niantic already proved this formula works with Pokemon Go, and Pikmin Bloom applies the same location-based hook with a gentler, cuter skin. It’s genuinely good at making a walk feel like it’s accomplishing something, though like all these apps it works best if you already live somewhere walkable.
