Infinity Nikki is not your typical dress-up game. It takes the concept of outfit selection to a whole new level by incorporating elements of magic, adventure, and open-world exploration. The game, developed by Singapore-based Infold and Kentaro Tominaga, the former Legend of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild developer, offers a unique and captivating experience for players.
The game follows the journey of Nikki, a princess or princess-adjacent heroine, who stumbles upon an enchanted dress that transports her to the magical world of Miraland. Here, she encounters a cursed goddess named Ena, who entrusts her with the task of saving the world from evil using the power of the lost Miracle Outfits. Along the way, Nikki acquires a plethora of outfits that grant her various powers and skills, such as fishing, stealthy movement, electronics mastery, bug-catching, and even the ability to shrink herself to ride on her pet Moogle cat’s head.
Infinity Nikki incorporates elements of open-world exploration, combat, and platforming. While there is combat in the form of monster purification, it is portrayed in a lighthearted manner. The enemies in the game have whimsical names like Bouldy and are sometimes made up of materials used for elegant dresses. The land of Miraland is inhabited by tailors and stylists, adding a unique twist to the usual fantasy RPG setting.
The game features a Pear-Pal tablet reminiscent of Breath Of The Wild’s Sheikah Slate, which is primarily used for taking photos. Players can also explore dungeons with platforming sequences, such as the Dream Warehouse filled with paper cranes representing wishes. Additionally, players can ride on various modes of transportation like magic trains, bicycles, minecarts in wine cellars, and a majestic bird following a set path around the map.
Infinity Nikki offers a refreshing take on the traditional dress-up genre by combining it with elements of adventure, magic, and open-world exploration. While the game’s monetization strategy remains unclear, the whimsical visuals and innovative gameplay mechanics are sure to appeal to a wide audience. Whether you enjoy dressing up characters, exploring fantastical worlds, or engaging in light-hearted combat, Infinity Nikki has something unique and exciting to offer. Keep an eye out for this enchanting game on the Epic Game Store for more updates on Nikki’s thrilling adventures.
