How a round goes
Thirty seconds. The piñata is a real weight on a rope, swinging across your lane, and a press only counts inside the green band in the middle of its swing. A hit shoves it, so it swings wider and crosses faster.
Every fifth hit bursts it open in a shower of sweets, and presses are ignored for half a second while it does. Mashing is punished: a miss locks your bat for longer than a hit does.
Scoring and winning
One point per hit. Most hits wins; ties share.
Tips
- The green band is exactly what the game tests. If the piñata is not in it, do not swing.
- Watch the rhythm change after each hit; it does not come back at the same pace.
- The sweet zone is per seat: a Little Kids station gets a wider band on the same swing.
