About the game

What is Piñatas?

Bide your time, but don't wait too long—you won't get any candy! In Piñatas, you want to take tricks as late as you can. Once you take three tricks, you're out of the round. But, you get points for how many tricks won by all players at the table. Designed by Dr. Reiner Knizia, Piñatas features a simple ruleset with his signature spin on scoring. —description from the publisher
