Of the many wacky mini-games in Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth, one of the funniest ones is Sicko Snap, inspired by Pokémon Snap.
The Like A Dragon/Yakuza games are known for their large variety of wild mini-games, and Infinite Wealth seems to be the series’ peak in this regard. Next to mini-games inspired by Crazy Taxi or Animal Crossing, you also have the Sujimon in Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth, a system that is basically just Pokémon with weird guys.
But outside of actual Pokémon, developer RGG Studio has also taken inspiration from Pokémon Snap, the iconic photography-based spin-off. And in typical RGG fashion, they have taken the concept and put their own, uniquely weird spin on it.
Sicko Snap, Infinite Wealth’s Version Of Pokémon Snap, Is Bonkers & Hilarious
Spread across Infinite Wealth’s huge and dense version of Honolulu, you’ll find a bunch of trolley stops where you can board a bus. But this is not a form of travel, instead this will trigger the Sicko Snap mini-game. Just like in Pokémon Snap, you’re slowly traveling along a set path and are asked to take photos.
But you’re not documenting cute pocket monsters, instead you’re asked to take perfect pictures of dancing dudes, the titular sickos.
Prepare to snap some pics you won't forget in Sicko Snap! Hop on a Honolulu City trolley and bear witness to gyrating guys in unexpected places. Catch them in the act by snapping a well-framed pic to get more Snap Points.Play Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth Jan 26! pic.twitter.com/6uSwqhFkLB

This is, in typical fashion for the series, extremely silly, funny and frankly clever. And you know what? I’m so excited to play it in the full game. I love Pokémon Snap, and I’m sure this will scratch that itch, while also being among the most hilarious activities in the game.
Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth launches on January 26 for PC, PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox One & Xbox Series X/S
