Viva Pinata was a rarity in the gaming world - a game that appealed to adults and children alike, wacky and totally addictive. It took the gaming world by storm with the simplicty of building a garden and attracting manic Pinata creatures to it. We all loved it and now we have a sequel - and it's more of the same and will sell by the spade-load. It took me two months to get a go on the last one, the kids were that hooked, this time around I am hoping for more luck but so far I have been catching glances over their shoulders. The sign of a good game in our house is having to prize them off the thing for food. All the basic controls etc are seemingly the same as are the objectives it just looks like a more complete version of the origonal, highly polished and even more addictive. Their doesn't seem to be anything really radical going on from what I could see. I will get the girls to post a review when their exams week is over! They seemed to love it though before study took over. Cute as ever, superb gameplay - the Pinatas are back. |
