help Viva Pinata FAQ
How do new piñatas decide to visit or live in the garden?
Each species has specific appearance, visit, and resident requirements tied to the garden's plants, terrain, decorations, or existing residents. For example, changing the amount of grass or water can attract entirely different species.
Why are Professor Pester and the Ruffians attacking my garden?
They are antagonists who can damage property or target resident piñatas. Players can use defenses, pay off threats in some situations, and improve the garden to reduce the disruption.
How does romancing piñatas work?
Two resident piñatas of the same species can romance after their species-specific conditions are met. Completing a maze minigame produces an egg, allowing the population to grow and sometimes unlocking further progression.
What is the difference between Viva Piñata and Trouble in Paradise?
Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise is Rare's expanded follow-up for Xbox 360. It adds new species, desert and arctic regions, more cooperative features, and additional ways to capture and manage piñatas.
