Plants vs Zombie Review

What is it that every Zombie has been wanting since the dawn of time? Well, to eat your brains. Plants vs. Zombies is an exploration into the scenario of what to do if Zombies were attacking you and the only defense is genetically altered plants. The very highly addictive tower defense game offers many a main games with multiple mini games and puzzles.
The main game mixes up the game play with new environments to keep the game from becoming stale. This also allows you, as the gamer to come up with multiple different strategies for each new set of levels. The Zombies in this game are smarter than your average Zombies. They attack from the front yard to the back yard and even from the roof. Don’t expect the Zombies to take a rest either, as they don’t care if it is day or night - the Zombies want your brains. Your only defense from these brain eating Zombies are plants. That’s right, plants!
The plants vary from a sunflower which provides you with sunlight to pea plants which shoot out peas. The sunlight pays for your plants which you use in the game. It is a simple mechanic you need the sunlight to make the plants. The Zombies come in from different areas and you as the gamer have to come up with strategies as to where to place your plants to defeat them.
Then, on top of the main game there are a large number of mini-games, puzzles and endless modes. The mini-games vary from blowing down zombies to being the zombies attacking the plants. There are two puzzle modes; the vase breaker and I, Zombie mode. In the vase breaking mode, the gamer breaks a vase one at a time to either have a Zombie pop out or a plant which can be used on the other Zombies which also pop out. The endless modes keep throwing zombie after zombie at you non-stop. See how long you can last, and here is a hint if you can get past 10 levels of Zombies then you will unlock an achievement if you got the game on Steam.
One of the best parts of Plants vs. Zombies is that the game is only $9.99 on steam and $19.99 on PopCap's website. Plants vs. Zombies is a great game for the whole family. Even my wife can’t get enough of playing this game.
