Plants vs Zombies

The One With The Nose

Rating: 10

Personally, I love this sort of game; you know, the kind that is so simplistic that you can pick it up in a heartbeat, yet it still has a challenge. Plants vs Zombies is a row based tower defense game. It's amazingly addicting, and incredibly fun. For those of you who haven't yet played Plants vs Zombies, the objective of the game is to prevent the zombies from reaching your house. As the game goes on, this becomes more difficult to do. You start off with just a few plants, and as you advance, your selection of sadistic seeds swells to a sanity-shaking amount. Each plant has its own good things and bad things. For example, a sunflower creates extra sun, which is what you use to create your plants, but cannot attack zombies and is weak. There are two main types of plants: plants and shrooms. Shrooms need very little or no sun to be created, so they are the perfect plant for night. On the other hand, they aren't as powerful as plants. Plants need more sun to be created than shrooms, but are stronger. The plants of the game all have their own unique perks and shortfalls, and combined with the rest of the game, produce a hilariously fun game. This game, at least on the Mac, is worth every penny it costs.
