Gran juego, un poco repetitivo con muchos logros y formas secretas que tienes que descubrir por tu cuenta realizando diferentes métodos, piñatas y frutas

This game can be played by anyone with a charming yet unique goals over time

in all honesty this game kinda ****. like yeah the gameplay is going at breakneck pace and you rarely have a chance to breathe, trying to figure out how to get half the items is a nightmare, AND the graphics are kinda ass, but despite all that i cant help but love it. and its all because of the silly little pinatas. i would do a blood sacrifice if it were for newtgat. #newtgatfanclub. i acknowledge that it is an objectively bad game but i will never ever stop playing it

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

My favorite game, it’s a mix of a farming game, animal crossing, and a fortress protecting type game

Good game for kids and farming enthusiastic gurus I last played this on n64 all those years ago still a good game

100% marketing. This game is awful, maybe little girls could have appreciated this. I hated every second of it.

i played this game multiple times and it’s fun each time my favorite is buying piñata’s

Melhor jogo do mundo, conheci ele quando era bem novinho e desde então se tornou meu jogo favorito, contando com personagens muito bem criados e desenvolvidos, meu comfort game, um jogo relaxante e calmo.

I love this game gameplay is very good and piniata projekt i polecam tą grę moim przejacelom

Este juegazo es imparable Un excelente titulo, divertido, con piñatas para cuidar que son muy carismaticas

I’ve been playing this game for years, and, although it’s meant for kids, Viva Piñata has actually captured my attention, ranking this game as my all-time favorite farming & simulation game ever! Microsoft and Rare also have a 2009 version to the game, but I would definitely love another version in the next few years!

Not for me. I was really intrigued by this game because it came with the Rare Replay that I bought mainly for the N64 classics. I played it for approximately two and a half hours and was annoyed as fork. In the first two hours, you rarely have actual control over the game for more than ten seconds before a new Alert, Tutorial, character, Pinata etc. comes up. It's kind of overwhelming really, so much stuff gets thrown at you. They definitely could have spaced this out better, maybe have a new species of Pinata turn up every 5-10 minutes instead of every 30-60 seconds. You barely have enough time to look at the requirements for each Pinata to visit, become a resident, and mate before the next one shows up. And it's really a lot to keep track of when 20+ species appear in the first couple of hours, when you're still just learning to play the game and are getting introduced to all the mechanics. Then when all the explanations stop, you're sort of left hanging. At that point, I was asking myself: "So what do I do now? What's the goal here? Which species of Pinata should i favour? How do I keep unwanted intruders out? etc" Also, it's kind of hard to be aware of everything that's going on in the garden, all the requirements, mating, Pinatas getting sick/poisoned, Pinatas fighting and eating each other etc. etc. That does not fit the tag line of a relaxed gardening game for me. Plus, I found the control scheme to be kind of unintuitive, e.g. when you want to sell something you have to confirm three times before you can actually make the sale, which is horsesheet when you've got so many other things to take care of. Maybe I'll give this game another try sometime, but for now, I'm really not impressed. Maybe it's just not my genre, as I also never really got into the Sims or Animal Crossing or anything like that. P.S. THIS IS AN ENGLISH WEBSITE. WRITE YOUR REVIEWS IN FORKING ENGLISH.

10/5 MAASTAAPECEEEEE denominado con el titulo de IMPARIBLE QUE LES QUEDE CLARO NADA ESTA POR ENCIMA DE VIVA PIÑATA O YO TE MATO BLANQUITO DE MIERDA :D

You know, one day you're going to pick this game back up after a long day of work just for a few laughs and before you know it 48 hours will have passed and you phone will be ringing, you'll pick it up and your boss will say you're fired, after he says this you suddenly remember that you have a newborn baby, in a panic you drop the phone and quickly run into your bedroom to check on your baby but you're too late, he's died of dehydration. You let out a bloodcurdling scream of sorrow and quickly leave the room to check on your three dogs which you had let outside into the backyard before you started to play the game, you never intended to leave them out there of course, you where just going to pause the game and let them back inside, but somewhere along the way you became so engrossed in the game that you completely forgot about them and where blocking out their constant barking, as you walk outside you you see a scene that could could only be described as something out of a horror movie. Over the past 48 hours your dogs had gotten so hungry that they resorted to their animalistic ways and began eating eachother, one of your dogs is little more than a carcass of skin and bones while your other dog is on the ground squealing as it gushes blood. You can't bear to look at the scene any longer and you turn around to go back inside, possibly to end your own life but you can't help but notice the familiar tune coming from your TV room "VIVA PINATA DO DO DOO!" you immediately begin heading towards the room that contains your xbox and that beautiful, beautiful music and as you enter the room you're overwhelmed with a feeling of happiness, you can't help but sit down and pick up the controller. Maybe you'll just play for a few more hours before ending it all, after all you need to breed just a few more Taffly's before you can afford a cute little cat.

Original y estilo visual muy colorido. Es entretenido y engancha aunque no es un juego para todo tipo de jugadores.

Bizzarement, ce jeu niais aux couleurs fluos pour nabots plus ou moins gogolitos (ou "différents") n'est pas sorti sur consoles Nintendolito ! voilà qui ne laisse pas d'étonner. Mais je crois que Microsoft a racheté il y a longtemps ces blaireaux de Rare pour en faire leur fer de lance sur le créneau des jeux idiots. Il paraît qu'il y a même un "marché" pour ça. Mais à vouloir con-currencer Nintendaube, Grosoft s'est assurément fourvoyé, car les nintendaubeux restent fidèles contre vent et marée au petit artisan (?) japoniais qui roule sous les aisselles et recycle ses productions pleines de grenadine à intervalles réguliers. Ah, il faudrait parler du "jeu", viva pinata... je n'en ai point la force ni l'envie, car la courtoisie la plus élémentaire m'empêche de décrire sans être vulgaire ce tas de... enfin ce truc. Certes, "pinata" m'a bien inspiré un ou deux jeux (!) de mots mais la bienséance m'empêche (encore !) de vous en faire part ici.

''Viva Pinata'' I remember the first time that I listen about this game, the idea sounds crazy, but no really atractive to me (because I'm not a big fanatic of this kind of games), but when I saw the game, I was surprised! The graphics are so spectacular, all these colors, the characters, the music, the story, WOW, all looked amazing, and when I take the control, the fun started, the gameplay it's really simple, and that means that anyone can easily understand the game, and join to the fun. And when you start to collect all these cool pinatas the game becomes addictive! Definitely, ''Viva Pinata'' it's one of the most interesting games on the Xbox 360 catalog.

Really Rare? i love donkey kong, i love killer instinct i love goldeneye,i love perfect dark 1999 but this? its horrible!! i hate viva piñata its bored,stupid, i hate it

First thing is first the show was made to hype the game just like with Pokemon. Now the game is fun once you figure out how to turn a profit and bring in the big Pinatas, but I'd be lying if I said that wasn't time consuming. From Chewnicorns to Buzzlegums this game is full of strategy and problem solving that will make you rethink what the target audience should have been. The game is beautiful and the characters are fun. The trademark Rare Humor is here slipping in jokes only the older players will get. I'd say get the sequel but that may be harder to find.

While it isn't the best game in the world it is very entertaining and very different from most games out there. The light hearted atmosphere and the colorful visuals make this game a pleasure to play and relax to. While it may be aimed a ta younger audience, adults shouldn't shy away as it will be far more enjoyable than you might want to admit. Overall: It feels like you're playing a Saturday morning cartoon,, and regardless of your age you will enjoy it.

It's so addictive I can hardly believe it .While hardly my usual type of game I struggled to put the controller down every time I played it.Amazing...

This an excellent game for both young kids and adults. Fun, colourful and relaxing but with depth and challenge if you want it. Made by 'Rare', a British developer with real heritage. They know how to make good games.

Viva Pinata is possibly the best, if not one of the best, life simulation games of all times. Conjuring up cuteness that The Sims could never handle, the graphics and animations are fluid and vibrant, and the mating dance is always a spectacle. The controls are simple and easy to use, but hard to master. Combine that with some helpful tips and a range of pinatas to bring into your garden, and you end up with a gem of a video game. If you're sick of all the shooters and hack-n-slash games, and you feel the need for some relaxing, full of depth gameplay, purchase this video game.

Me parece un juego lamentable, basado en dar palazos en la tierra para arreglar un jardin y quitar basura... en dos palabras, muy malo. Creo que es un juego para niños o con poco criterio en la vida.

A surprisingly fantastic game. Lot's of fun, truly a great, hidden gem. I went in expecting nothing, I came out with a relaxing game full of depth. Great to play between intense games to reset your brain, just saying. :P

I really laughed a lot after hearing that ViVa Pinata was getting a game adaptation .So yeah, I underestimated a game because of it's goofy concept. It turns out the game was quite addicting, everything to the charming graphics, cute animals and endearing world it's an instant victory for VP. Fun and addicting, nothing more defines this game .

I didn't think I would like this game, as I never really thought I could get into life simulator games, but this proved to be a highly enjoyable and addictive experience, it's all very charming, it's easy to learn, and has a lot of reasons to come back, from multiple pinatas to collect, and many challenges to complete, and it's also a blast to just decorate your garden, and it's always fun to find out new ways to lure pinatas into living in your garden, it's not to grownup for kids, and not to childish for adults, it's a game that any gamer can enjoy, provided they can put down the ultra violent games, and respect this for it's more peaceful nature, my only complaints are that there are moments where you will have nothing to do while waiting for a certain pinata or challenge to show up or waiting on plants to grow so you can have enough coins to buy the items you need, and it would have been nice to be able to move you buildings and other items around after you placed them, and sometimes without warning my pinatas just disappeared, once I saved my game came back and one of my pinatas was gone, and another time right in the middle of the romance mini-game my pinata instantly disappeared, and my other pinata was just frozen in my garden, but even with those flaws I found myself still coming back and having an enjoyable time, an enjoyable game no matter what your age group.

This game is genius. You'dx think it would be bad, but it's really not. It's fun, rewarding, and can be challenging. Don't be fooled. This is a brilliant game and i reccomend it.
