Niantic's AR games are renowned for their creative approaches to getting players out and about, and the latest update for Pikmin Bloom might just be the most unusual yet. This update introduces the quirky Pasta Decor Pikmin, which you can find by visiting your local Italian restaurant.
No, this isn't a sneaky tactic to boost restaurant visits; it's all about the game. At these Italian eateries, you'll be able to discover seedlings for the new Pasta Decor Pikmin. These unique Pikmin come adorned with various types of pasta, ranging from the well-known to the more exotic, adding a delightful twist for fans of Italian cuisine.
While the concept might seem bizarre, its strangeness is likely to be its charm, effectively drawing players out to explore. Though I'm curious about the inspiration behind this update, I believe local restaurant owners might appreciate the increased foot traffic, provided they aren't overwhelmed by crowds.
To join in on the fun, make sure to update your Pikmin Bloom app. It's a small step to take for the chance to encounter these pasta-themed Pikmin. So, lace up your shoes and head out to your nearest Italian spot to find those seedlings!
