Indulge in a Refreshing Scoop of 2024's Pikmin-Themed Ice Cream Flavors
In August 2024, the popular mobile game Pikmin Bloom introduced two exciting events that took place simultaneously throughout the month. The primary focus was on the Ice Cream Decor Pikmin Event, which introduced new designs of Ice Cream Special Decor Pikmin across all Pikmin types, adding to the existing Ice Cream Decor Pikmin from 2023.
Ice Cream Decor Pikmin Event
The Ice Cream Decor Pikmin were categorised into two groups: - Ice Cream: Classic (existing types) - Ice Cream: 2024 Flavor (7 new types)
The event currency was Ice Cubes, and the event's special mushrooms were Bizarre Mushrooms. Defeating these mushrooms rewarded players with Mystery Boxes. Seedlings earned from Event Challenges and inviting friends grew into random Ice Cream: 2024 Flavor Decor Pikmin; Gold Seedlings from currency missions produced Ice Cream: Classic Decor Pikmin.
Ice Cream Decor Pikmin gained a combat advantage during the event, with +15 attack power against mushrooms, particularly strong against Bizarre Mushrooms. Additional event features included Special Mission Tickets, a special Event Challenge pack, new Mii costumes, an Event Premium Pass in the shop, and themed postcards with Ice Cream backgrounds and stamps.
Mahjong Tile Event
Running concurrently alongside the Ice Cream Event in August 2024, the Mahjong Tile event was another exciting addition to Pikmin Bloom. However, public details on the Mahjong Tile event itself are limited from the available data, with information on its currency, rewards, and mechanics not elaborated.
Event Summary
The August 2024 Pikmin Bloom events focused heavily on Ice Cream Decor Pikmin with new variants and powers, accompanied by an event currency (Ice Cubes) and special Bizarre Mushrooms. The Mahjong Tile event ran in parallel, but public details on that are limited from the available data.
The events were free to start, with optional in-app purchases available. During the event, players could encounter Bizarre Mushrooms that, when destroyed, yielded Mystery Boxes containing items such as Ice Cubes and flower petals. Other ways to obtain Ice Cubes included completing Event Challenge missions, purchasing an Event Premium Pass, purchasing the Flower Petal Pack, and buying event-limited Mii character costume.
Seedlings for Ice Cream: 2024 Flavor Decor Pikmin could be obtained from the Big Flower at the center of the stage when it bloomed, and both Step and Flower Planting Weekly Challenge rewards during this event period included a Gold Seedling for any of the 10 available types of Mahjong Tile Decor Pikmin.
Players could obtain Gold Seedlings for Ice Cream: Classic Decor Pikmin and exclusive Mii costumes by clearing missions at the start of the event. The Ice Cream: Classic Decor Pikmin are the same ones that made their original appearance in Pikmin Bloom in September 2023.
