Plants vs. Zombies

No zombie invasion would be complete without a look at Plants vs. Zombies. Instead of growing plants and creating mutated zombies (which is awesomely cool!), you must grow plants that defend against the mutated zombies. The mindless drones are coming to invade your garden and you must do everything in your power to keep them at bay. Each one of your plants does a different kind of damage that could bring the zombie to his knees or at least lop off his head.

Can you build the right combination of defense to defeat the growing horde? It all sounds so simple, but that’s what they all say right before things go sideways.

PopCap has ported over their insanely popular game to the iPad. It looks and plays exceptionally well. As you advance you get more and varied kinds of plants, each doing more and different kinds of damage. But as you get better, so do the zombies. There’s more of them, and they’ve got armor. Sure, a road cone on the head may look silly, but it’s enough to keep them coming right at you. It only takes a few minutes to understand the rules, but building up the right combination of defenses takes patience and skill. Should you unleash the fury of the buttered popcorn or use the butter and the corn?

And now that Plants vs. Zombies has gone HD with the iPad, you get plenty of room to plan your defensive strategy.
