Gameplay Plants vs. Zombies is a tower defense strategy game, in which the player's goal is to stop their enemies, in this case zombies, from advancing across the game map and eventually invading their in-game house. This is done by using the variety of different plants available. Each of these possesses different attributes that make them effective against enemies both in a general sense, but also in some cases in a very specific ways against specific zombies. This is becasue zombies, like the plants, have specific attributes as well which can be equated to strengths and weaknesses. The strategy element of gameplay regards how players match these strengths and weaknesses across the game map and how they manage their plant resources overall. As part of managing these resources, players must also constantly seek to upgrade their plant arsenal. This is done by purchasing upgrades with money collected from fallen zombies, as well as rewards earned through success in the game's various gameplay modes.
Game Modes Along with its fun-filled adventure mode, Plants vs. Zombies also comes with additional gameplay modes that are sure to keep the fun coming. These include: survival mode, an endless battle between you and the zombie horde where valuable skills are honed and stretegy perfected; a challenging puzzle mode; Zen GardenZen Garden; and a mini-games mode which includes unlockable zombie-themed versions of some of PopCap's famous casual games, including Bejeweled and Insaniquarium.
