Gardening to lure adorable piñata animals sounds like a task for children, but Rare’s Viva Piñata franchise was hardcore at heart. A lush garden required intense micro-managing skills – plucking weeds, dealing with the aftermath of the evil Professor Pester and his crew of Ruffians (who like to kill piñatas and plants) and developing an alluring environment for piñatas. In fact, the original’s gameplay was deemed too complex for children, so Rare added a “Just for Fun” mode in Trouble in Paradise where players can dink around with unlimited resources and without worries like Ruffians messing up your garden.
