Just in time for the winter holiday season, Rare Ltd. has developed new ways for any level gardener to cultivate snowy landscapes in “Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise.” Regardless of what climate players live in, their piñata gardens can be transformed into a winter white spectacle!

Beginning gardeners and expert green thumbs alike will appreciate the numerous tips and tricks below that the “Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise” developers have provided to nurture wintery gardens and create welcoming environments for the frosty candy-filled creatures from the Piñarctic.

  1. I’m dreaming… cover the garden with snow. When it rains you’ll get snow instead and you can enjoy a white Christmas
  2. When Santa got stuck… Build a Robean house. It’s a festive fireplace complete with baubles and a stocking ready for a holiday visit
  3. The gift of giving… Get yourself a warm glow by sending a friend a crate with a nice surprise over LIVE. Remember it’s better to give than to receive
  4. It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas… Plant a holly bush. Use red fertilizer to get the maximum amount of berries
  5. Twinkle, twinkle, little star… Holiday decorations aren’t complete without a star or two. Use Hollywood paving to add a constellation to your seasonal garden
  6. Oh Christmas tree… Plant a fir tree. If you want something really impressive try using brown fertilizer to make it as big as it can be
  7. Dance of the sugarplum… A Galagoogoo dressed in Kameo wings and with ballet shoes will give you a living fairy to put on top of your tree
  8. Then one foggy Christmas eve… Dress a Doenut with a red nose and with a little re-naming Rudolf can be prancing around your Yuletide paradise
  9. Polar Express… Build a track and set a little train rattling around. If you put the Chew Chew train down, it will run over sour candy and turn it into lovely candy
  10. Father Christmas… Feed a Jeli some medicine – tinkered honey. Now give him a Santa hat and a pair of Breegull Waders (colored black) and you can have a version of everyone’s’ favorite chunky old man in your garden

For the less ambitious, new Piñata Vision cards will help the jolly transformation along.  Additionally, Rare has supplied screenshots to help spark inspiration among new and experienced piñata gardeners.
