PIKMIN BLOOM Adds New Weekly Challenges

Have you been getting your steps in thanks to Pikmin Bloom? The app is a simple concept: grow a Pikmin garden simply by walking. If you have been wanting to try to motivate yourself to walk more, this can be a fun way to do it.

The game has rolled out a new update to include weekly challenges. Get some friends together and work towards a shared goal of planting flowers, a step challenge, or both at the same time. The new feature of inviting friends to join weekly challenges will make this process very simple for players. If you complete a flower planting weekly challenge by end of day July 24 you can get an in-app “Flower” t-shirt (1 per player). This new update will set the stage for other types of weekly challenges for the future. 

I haven’t gotten into the game, but I really like the idea of these challenges. Not only can you play them with friends you don’t live close to, I think it would be a lot of fun to have a group that gets together in person to go for a walk together to hit the goals.
