[[Real Time Strategy]] at its quirkiest, the ''Pikmin'' series came about from a mix of the ''[[Super Mario Bros.|Super Mario]] 128'' project, [[Shigeru Miyamoto]]'s childhood observations of insects at work, and general RTS gameplay. The ''Pikmin'' games lead players into a world where they must use the different kinds of plantlike creatures called "Pikmin" to defeat enemies, produce other Pikmin, collect treasures, and survive in a strange world with even stranger creatures.
