Viva Piñata is a Poverty Simulation Game (PSG) developed by Rare Ltd. for the Microsoft Xbox 360 video game console. It is the first game for the console to implement the Xbox 360's gyroscopically sensitive stick controller, which conveys the user's swinging motions onto the television screen during gameplay. Due to a general outcry from the public, the game was censored or banned in several countries because of scenes portraying sexual acts involving piñatas as well as piñata-related violence and abuse.
