“Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise,” the newest pi?ata adventure that invites gamers to return to magical Pinata Island. Unfortunately, not all is well on the island, as Professor Pester along with his gang of Ruffians have wiped out Pinata Central’s computer records, which poses a threat to parties everywhere. To help Pinata Central, players must gradually rebuild the computer database by sending pinatas at full candiosity to parties all around the world. While thwarting Professor Pester’s evil plot, players still build and maintain pinata gardens — using their creativity and imagination to attract, trap, protect, train and manage more than 100 different pinata species.

• Customize your garden and pi?atas: Plant flowers, dig ponds, even place sand and snow in your garden to make exotic species of pi?ata feel at home. Buy objects to change the weather, or get new toys for your pi?ata. And nurture the thirty-two new species of pi?ata, including sour pi?atas that infiltrate and wreak havoc in the garden. Choose to tame the sours, or feed them candy to keep them sweet.
   
• Play with a friend: Family members and friends can now share in the joy of creating a garden by plugging in an extra controller. The second player has access to all tools, actions, activities, and can help by collecting magic. It's an entirely new way to play.
   
• Play multiple game modes: Use the Player Guide System to master the fundamental aspects of the game. Then, try the Standard Mode where sour pi?atas, feuding species, and limited money call for you to exercise problem solving and creativity to build and maintain your garden. Or enjoy Just for Fun Mode, which allows you to build a garden full of colorful creatures without worries.
   
• Experience Pi?ata Vision: Plug in an Xbox LIVE® Vision camera and interact with the game through the use of printed cards featuring a unique barcode. Flash a pi?ata card up to the Vision camera, and the content will drop directly into the game.
   
• Show off to friends: Use the new photo mode to snap, print, and upload pictures of your unique garden or customized pi?atas to show to friends. Photograph your pi?ata and turn it into a pi?ata card, then share it with your friends so they can scan it and put it into their own garden.
   
• Teach your pi?atas tricks: Pi?atas can perform dazzling tricks, if you teach them with the new trick stick tool. Watch as pi?atas play together, perch on each other, and interact in new ways to make them even more appealing.
