This game is an absolute masterpiece. One of the best tower defense games ever made.
On a grid, you plant your plants while zombies approach from the right side of the screen (usually). Each plant has varying sun costs, which is this games way of planting down plants. Sun drops from the sky but also from certain plants like Sunflowers.
There are 5 worlds in the main campaign, each offering something unique. At night, sun won't drop from the sky. In the pool, 2 lanes are covered by water. In the fog, fog covers up a significant portion of the screen. In the roof, you'll need catapult plants and pot plants to carry you to victory.
The pacing is great, you get 1 new plant per level, and fight 1 new zombie every 2 levels. It really gives you a chance to try out every new plant and build your own strategy. The final boss, while not challenging is still a great end to the game, and upon beating the game you'll unlock a harder campaign in which Crazy Dave will give you 3 pre-selected plants to use.
There are also minigames and puzzles. Minigames are one off (or sometimes 2) levels with a unique gimmick and some of these can be extremely fun. They also reward you with money which can be used to buy from the shop. Puzzles are a set of two playstyles with multiple levels.
I, Zombie and Vasebreaker, each contain their own fun and can be really cool to play after playing the usual levels. Theres also a survival mode where you fight off waves of zombies, while being able to select what plants you use between waves.
The Zen Garden is a way to make money, and throughout the game you'll get more plants for the Zen garden.
This game also has achievements, some are great fun, but some are RNG HELL.
Regardless, if you haven't for some reason tried out this game, do it. It is one of the best videogames ever made.
