Matches in DBpedia 2015-10 for { ?s ?p "Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise is a life simulation game developed by Rare and published by Microsoft Studios for the Xbox 360. It was first released in North America on 2 September 2008, in Europe on 5 September 2008 and in Australia on 11 September 2008. It is the third installment in the Viva Piñata series, and the sequel to 2006's Viva Piñata. In the game, players assume the role a gardener who must tend to their garden and attract various piñata-like animals to live in their garden. New gameplay elements include two additional biomes to catch piñatas, as well as online co-operative play.Development of the game stemmed from the numerous features that had to be cut for the release of Viva Piñata due to time constraints. While the original intent was to implement these features through downloadable content, Rare opted to instead create a sequel, as the company believed that the downloadable content would not have interacted well with the main game and thus, lessen the experience for the player. Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise uses many of the same assets found in its predecessor, and was developed around the idea of "add more content, but don't remove any content".The game received positive reviews from critics, with praise directed towards the addictive gameplay, and the minor improvements made to the user interface. The game was however, not commercially successful, and was later nominated by GameSpot for the "Best Game No One Played" award during their year-end awards ceremony. It was offered for free as part of Games with Gold for the Xbox 360 console between November 1, 2014 and November 15, 2014. The game is also included in the Rare Replay video game compilation, released for the Xbox One in 2015."@en }
