We Love It's Guide to…

Pikuniku

You play as a strange red creature with long legs in a colorful world where a seemingly generous corporation is taking resources from ordinary people. As you meet its unusual residents, you uncover the scheme and join their effort to push back. Explore connected areas, talk with villagers, and take on their requests. Walk, jump, curl into a ball, and kick objects or characters to navigate obstacles and solve light platforming puzzles. The adventure also includes side activities, hidden items, and minigames. A separate local co-op mode offers custom levels and challenges for two players, including racing and soccer.

Guide a leggy red creature through a colorful world, kicking, solving puzzles, helping locals, and confronting a greedy corporation.

Pikuniku is an absurdly wonderful puzzle-exploration game that takes place in a strange but playful world where not everything is as happy as it seems. Help peculiar characters overcome struggles, uncover a deep state conspiracy, and start a little revolution in this delightful dystopian adventure!
