Danish site Gamereactor is reporting that Rare has implemented a new game mode in Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise, whereby you can jump straight into the action with no long, drawn out tutorial.
It says that Rare has listened to criticisms from the first game and acted accordingly.
"To start with, the game starts in a green and controlled garden so you don't have to drag yourself through all the weeding and fertilising," says the article, translated by videogaming247. "Also, all the help missions are optional, so you can choose if you want them or not."
