It's time to Return to Paradise!
Encounter hundreds of species, new and old, as you turn your garden into a piñata paradise! Return to Paradise is a fan-made spiritual successor to the Viva Piñata series owned by Microsoft. We hope to expand on these past titles with our own cast of piñatas, characters, story, and mechanics!
The Gardens
You start on a small plot of land, with only a shovel, watering can, and packet of grass to your name. Using these tools, you can terraform this small garden into a haven for various piñata species! Once you've gotten your footing on the land, you can dive underwater to explore a whole second world of unknown piñatas just waiting to be discovered! Just watch out for the sour piñatas...
The Piñatas
As you change your gardens, you'll discover many kinds of curious piñatas. Each species has its interests, likes, dislikes, and enemies! By catering to one piñata's requirements, you may get it to pay a visit! If the piñata enjoys its time in your garden, it might even decide to call it home and take on its new colorful form!
