Anyone here with a bit of experience with this game care to share some tips?

I've come to a brick wall. I can make money easy enough and have the largest size garden yet i can't attract any new Pinatas either because of a population cap of items/buildings in the garden.

Help!
 
Loving the game, was giggling like a school girl, watching all those pinata's running around on screen christmas day :D

Think I need to hit a guide or 2, I can't figure out how to stop them all fighting each other.

sell some pinatas, trees, or buildings, to make room. You can't fit everything in one small garden!

The only tip you need in this game is Chillis + Red Fertiliser = $$$

If only that were true..the game's a little more complicated than that! :)

I've got the largest garden...and it's pretty sparse in there. I want it to be teeming with life and stuff. I just don't seem to be able to increase the contents.
 
Theres loads of tips, the one that really got me started in the game was evolving the taffly into a redhot by directing it too a torch and then putting it out with the wattering can... 2100 per redhot!

Also by using the correct fertilizer can help vastly... brown > bullrushes (1120 each) special fertiliser > orchids (1800 per orchid) and as everyone knows the same for chillis...

Also once your chosen species has had an egg, give them romancing sweets and then they can get straight back into making another egg.
 
buy a load of tulip seeds and plant them they are 33 each. Fertlize each 3 times with the purple fertilizer which IRC is 3 each. The end result if watered correctly yields 600.
 
I am trying to lay out a masterpiece garden and contain all the different pinatas in their own area by fencing them in. However, I've got just two medium size fences in and the shop woman Costalot, complains that I need to make more room before she will sell me anything.

Is there a limit on how much fencing you can have? I've tried smashing it all up and redoing it by leaving a gap of two tiles as a border between each fence and she still complains about lack of space. :confused:

There's a limit on how many buildings/flowers/pinatas you can have in your garden at a time so it's most likely that you've reached that limit.

My way around this is creating a new garden. Once you've unlocked the flowers or produce needed to get the better pinatas I start a new garden and work with those as my lowest pinatas. You get to keep all your coins and level on a new garden. Getting past the early stages is a nightmare as the pinatas constantly fighting so when you start a new garden you at least stop this problem.

It's usually my girlfriend that plays this and I'll watch and she seems love it. I've had a few goes too and if I could play more I would, it's just a pretty simple fun game.
 
Is there a strategy guide available for this game? I've had a search on t'Internet but not found anything. I could really use some help as to how to manage my garden more effectively.

How do you get the buzzlegums to make honey for starters? I have bought a honey building thing but don't know what to do with it! :D
 
Champion! I was aware of that site but thought it might contain too many spoilers so stayed away. My little buzzlegum has made honey straight away with that. Must have a fiddle with other accessories - I guess the game's all about trial and error/experimentation which I'm not used to.
