Pros
Pro Interesting theme
You are a running raptor who is shooting lasers from your eyes. The theme itself is sci-fi based in that the platform the raptor is running on looks sci-fi themed and contains robots. Also it would not be normal for a Raptor to shoot lasers, which in and of themselves are often sci-fi based.
Pro Fun shooting mechanics
Kill robots with your laser eyes as you run endlessly. Instead of the classic endless runner gameplay where one just avoids objects there is an extra shooting mechanic that allows one to shoot at robots in ones path.
Pro The soundtrack is amazing
Composed by Grant Kirkhope, the music in Viva Pinata really puts you in an unexplainable mood. When the sun sets, the animals falls asleep and "Tranquil Hours" plays, you will have a hard time not enjoying it.
Pro It's a very casual game
Being a childrens game, it is not made to be played hours upon hours in one sitting, but makes it fun to get back to once in a while, without being boring or repetetive.
Pro The feeling of achieveing something
If you're the kind of person that likes to hunt for secret items, hidden achievements, and rare events, this game is for you.

The end goal of this game is to collect all the animals that are avaliable.
