Pikmin Finder is a browser-based AR advergame created to promote Pikmin 4 at the Nintendo Live 2023 event in Seattle. The gameplay involves looking around to find sprouts, plucking them, and sending those Pikmin to find treasures. After plucking the group of Pikmin that appear, a button appears to send those Pikmin and others that have been plucked to retrieve a treasure. Once the treasure is brought back, it is added to the list of all treasures that have been discovered so far, and a button to find more Pikmin appears. This gameplay loop continues the same for all treasures, with different types of Pikmin and different locations for sprouts each time. The game features all 9 main Pikmin types and Oatchi, with Glow Pikmin only available to find from 8 pm to 8 am in the player’s timezone, and all others available to find any other time throughout the day. The game has 20 treasures to find in total. Once all 20 have been found, a prompt appears to reset all game progress and collect the Pikmin and treasures again.
