The "Viva Pi?ata" gameplay experience presents a customizable, social and spontaneous world in which gamers play an absolutely crucial role. The world players create is an evolving paradise teeming with fantastic living pi?ata creatures and vibrant plant life, all determined by the player's choices and actions. "Viva Pi?ata" boasts the following qualities:

Creating a living garden

It's your very own world. Your choice of contents will determine which of the pi?ata species are attracted to your world, since they all have individual requirements. Sowing grass, digging ponds, planting flowers and growing trees all affect which of the unique pi?atas you will see. It's not just about plants, either; there is a whole range of ornaments and structures that could be decisive. Your reward for creating an appealing paradise is to watch the pi?atas visit and eventually reside there, which is where the fun really starts.

Getting to know and understand the personalities and requirements of your pi?ata is essential if you want them to stay happy and thrive. Make your world their ideal paradise, and they'll want to raise a family and expand your community. Players decide how much help they want from the local guides, shopkeepers and work force. Go it alone or get them involved as you choose. Once you have resident pi?atas, you can begin to personalize your loyal community. Pi?atas can be individually named and given their own personally designed tag to put on display as a declaration of their home turf. And the customization doesn't end there. You can make the colorful critters more distinctive by customizing them with all kinds of costumes and accessories.

A thriving community awaits

The "Viva Pi?ata" community is a rewarding place to be, whether you remain within the boundaries of your own world or venture out into the real world or your friend's pi?ata world via Xbox Live, the first and only global, unified online console games service. Via the Xbox Live online community, players can contact other gamers to lend a hand, lay down a competitive challenge or trade items. Plus, it's not just new pi?ata species that are drawn to your world; untamed sour pi?atas with bad attitudes and troublemaking ruffians do their worst to spoil your creation and must be dealt with. Maintaining harmony within a growing community isn't always easy when rivalries, illness, injuries and even candy-spilling fights occur. If players turn their backs, who knows what their pi?atas will do?
