Plants VS Zombies


With so many games available today, it's hard to find one that has touched both gamers and non-gamers. Plants VS Zombies is fun, easy to understand and very addictive. It's a combination of strategy, puzzle and action kind of game. I've seen first-time gamers get addicted to this game.

PVZ has four modes, namely: Adventure, Mini Games, Puzzle and Survival. You also get to grow and maintain gardens once you get to the later stages of the adventure mode.

It might look like an easy game because of the cute plants and zombies but the later stages and the bonus games need a little more strategy on the part of the players. Once you're familiar with the plant abilities and the zombies' attacks and weaknesses, it will be easier to set up a defense. This is helpful for the inexperienced players because it introduces some of the basic features in today's games: the player's ability to adapt to different opponents, different difficulty levels, the boss fights and puzzles, deciding how and what to upgrade, and strategies on how to gain resources.

It has excellent graphics and a cute ending theme. The concept itself is unique. I first played this in August 2009 and since then considered it one of the best games ever made. I highly recommend this to both experienced and first-time gamers. I don't need to elaborate more on how great this game is because you have to try it yourself. This game is a testament that you don't need to save the world - but only your backyard.
