About This Game



Zombies are invading your home, and the only defense is your arsenal of plants! Armed with an alien nursery-worth of zombie-zapping plants like peashooters and cherry bombs, you'll need to think fast and plant faster to stop dozens of types of zombies dead in their tracks. Obstacles like a setting sun, creeping fog and a swimming pool add to the challenge, and with five game modes to dig into, the fun never dies!

  • Open the Almanac to see all the plants and zombies, plus amusing “facts” and quotes
  • Browse Crazy Dave’s shop for special plants and tools to stem any zombie assault

Pro tip: When the zombies show up, just sit there and don't do anything. You win the game when the zombies get to your houze. This review brought to you by the zombies

This game ruined me. My sunflowers keeps smiling like they're in a toothpaste commercial while getting absolutely mauled by zombies. My pumpkin, who are my brave little guardians, are shredded like wet paper bags in seconds. AND THEN MY WALNUT? My sweet, poor, crying walnut? He just sits there, dead-eyed just waiting and accepting his fate while chunks of him are bitten off one by one. The worst part? I can't do anything. I just sit there like some cruel god, clicking frantically, screaming from the top of my lungs "NOOO WALNUT NOOO" Just staring at my screen while the vegetables I love are eaten alive. This isn't a tower defence game. It's a warcrime.

This game is a masterpiece. I've been playing it since I was very little and I don’t think I’ll ever quit for good. Truly a timeless classic.

There's a zombie on your lawn! This game brings back good old memories! For those wanting to know, this game will run just fine on a potato pc/laptop. Haven't played this masterpiece? See if you can make it through the gauntlet of various zombies, wave after wave! One of the last great Popcap games before E.A. bought them and all the talent left to buy yachts, Plants Vs Zombies is a true classic at this point! If you're on the fence about buying it and reading this review, I hope I have helped you in your decision making process! Buy it!

it's GOOD on sale, but for $5.... Just get the remaster coming out later this year. Honestly more things to do in remaster, High-Definition graphics, and FULL WIDESCREEN. This version is alright I believe I paid 0.99$ for it and for that price it is worth it, other than that, NO.

Plants vs. Zombies is a fun and addictive tower defense game that combines strategy, humor, and creativity. The goal is to protect your house from waves of silly but persistent zombies by planting different types of plants, each with unique abilities. The game is easy to learn but challenging to master, which makes it enjoyable for both casual and more dedicated players. The art style is colorful and cartoonish, while the soundtrack is catchy and memorable. Every new level introduces fresh mechanics, keeping the gameplay exciting and never repetitive. What really makes Plants vs. Zombies special is its charm. The zombies are funny rather than scary, and the plants have personality, making the game feel lighthearted. It's a perfect mix of strategy and entertainment that appeals to all ages. Overall, Plants vs. Zombies is a classic game that remains just as enjoyable today as when it was first released. It's definitely worth playing if you love strategy games with humor and creativity...
