Viva Piñata

While there is no specific story or goal to the game, you can progress further by attracting many different types of Piñatas into your garden.

At first, you'll only have a small patch of land covered in junk; however, with some cleaning up and basic maintenance, you can begin to attract many different species, starting from the tiny Whirlm, to larger creatures like Horstachio.

If you're more interested in money-making than collecting, you can get the Piñatas to produce goods, like honey or milk, for you.

Failing that, you can simply sell off any of your excess Piñatas after you learn how to get them to mate.

Each species has its own particular ritual and conditions for mating.

Occasionally, mischievous Sour Piñatas will turn up to cause trouble in your garden.

If you can cure them of their sour condition, they'll help your garden instead! You can also get the services of the local Piñata Island residents, such as shopping, garden maintenance, and Piñata capture (if you require a particular species).

Viva Piñata for Xbox 360 is currently worth €15.83 loose, €7.03 complete in box, and €15.34 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Viva Piñata has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning it trades hands regularly and isn't considered particularly rare.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Viva Piñata, loose is €15.83 and CIB is €7.03 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.

The PAL version of Viva Piñata is currently worth €15.83 loose, versus €14.45 for NTSC-U. Regional price differences usually come down to print run size and regional collector demand.
