Each level is filled with equally nasty
hazards you must avoid, including
giant pitfalls or pools of ice
water, automated guns and traps such as spikes and blades.
From a side - scrolling perspective, players traverse platforms and
hazards as groups of «pikmin» aliens follow and assist him with tasks: removing obstacles; navigating chasms,
water; battling «cartoony» enemies (e.g., ducks, snails,
giant plants).
