The Pinatas

Edit - This is an old post relating to the Piñatas in 2012.

Find out about the 2017 Piñatas here

It's summer and so it's time to welcome the Piñatas to Howrse.

Until June 20th you can try to smash open Piñatas and win gifts by clicking on them. There are 20 Piñatas to crack and if you manage to open them all you win the latest new Solar System Divine - Jupiter.

Your Piñata will open once you have reached the required number of points. You can earn points in the following ways:

  • by clicking on your Piñata (at first you can do this every 24 hours but it becomes more often as you complete objectives)
  • by asking your friends to click on your Piñata (at first up to 4 friends can help you per day, again this increases as you complete objectives)
  • by completing objectives
Each Piñata offers between 1 and 3 additional objectives. If you complete these objectives they allow you to collect extra clicks. For example, on Piñata number 1 the objective is to groom a horse. If you do this you are allowed to click on your Piñata every 12 hours instead of every 24.

These objectives are cumulative. So if you earn extra clicks from friends on one Piñata, it will carry over to the next one to make it easier to open. Be warned though, the number of clicks it takes to open each one increases as you go along. So Piñata number 1 only requires 2 clicks to open but Piñata number 5 takes 16 and so on.

Each Piñata offers gifts once opened ranging from apples and diamonds to Black Market items.

We think this is quite a fun contest. Let us know how you're getting on!

  1. For Pinata 7 you need to find a blanket. Is there any way to easily find a blanket to complete this one? And is there a third objective for this pinata?

  2. Pinata 7 also says Specialize a horse. How do you do that?

    ReplyDelete
  3. Just put your horse into the stable as long/often as possible, there's not really any easy way for it.

  4. Specialize/specialise a horse simply means to select whether your horse will run Classical riding comps or Western riding comps.

  9. I think for the specialise one you possibly have a better chance of getting a blanket by putting the horse in the box for 10 hours. That's what I did. :)

  10. Also wondering how to hit a friend's pinata?

  11. you can only click on a friends pinata if they have requested help and if they have you go on your pinata page go on the friends tab and there will be something at the bottom of the page saying help a friend then just choose who you want to help

  12. Does anyone know who has gotten the farthest in the competition? I'm currently about halfway through number nine, and I don't know if I'll finish in time. I've been on a trip, so I've only been on my phone.
    So I guess my question is, if I'm halfway through number nine right now, will I be able to finish all 20 by the 20th?

    ReplyDelete
  24. I'm one click away from breaking #11. I believe the first objective was to place 3rd in 3 competitions. The second is to find an aging point ufo and it brings you to one click from breaking it. Awesome reward I would say.

  27. For piñata no.11, enter 50 competitions requiring 20% energy. It does not have to be exactly 20%.
    Also, make a donation to Ow.
    80 clicks are needed.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I'm sorry - did I write piñata no. 11 is 80 clicks? The above is for piñata no.11. The objectives, too. Piñata 12 is 80 clicks + donation to Ow, 20% energy competitions, etc.

    ReplyDelete
  29. How do you complete piñata 10 objective 1?

    ReplyDelete
  30. I'm almost on number 12 but I've already got my aging point UFO just before I got that objective! It's soooooo annoying! Who's the furthest ahead? Does Howrse say or not cos if so then Oooh and where? and if not then Oh and they should!

    ReplyDelete
  31. How do you complete objective number 1 for pinata 12 im really stuck on this one

    ReplyDelete
  32. I'm on piñata 15 with 135/200 points. I don't think I'll be winning that Jupiter... XD
    Oh, and to the Anon that posted before me: there isn't really a person that is the "furthest" ahead. Many players have already opened their 20th piñata and won the divine.

  33. Help! I can't get the first objective of pinata 15( Have won at least 1,000 Equus in competitions with one horse) Does anyone know how to do it?

    ReplyDelete
  34. I'm on piñata 12. There is an objective that says you have to enter 20 competitions requiring 20% energy. You don't have to enter one that requires exactly 20% energy, but you can do one 20% to 20.9%. You get a Horn Of Plenty when you open it. 80 points.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Piñata 11 was easy and hard at the same time. I waited all day for an aging point UFO, and when I finally got one, I got a Lightning Bolt and Medusa's Blood.

  38. I saw in the event forum on howrse that somewhere around 50 Jupiters have been won. the only way I know of to see is to do a directory search for horses named Jupiter and look for the divines.

  39. I need help with pinata 12 objective 1...... i cant seem to figureout what it means by "enter 30 competitions requiring 20% energy.."... im spacing out big time right now..plz help:)

    ReplyDelete
  40. you have to enter races thats need 20,0 % to 20,9% energy per Race.
    I do that with one likely unrtrained horse that got 20,5% per trab race.
    If you do races with 21% or more you dont get points counted for that pinata quest.

    ReplyDelete
