VGC Review: Plants vs. Zombies

VGC writes: "Plants vs. Zombies is one of the most high profile and popular releases to emanate from PopCap Games. It's essentially a tower defence game, where you place a wide variety of militant plants on your garden lawn in order to stave off waves of zombie invaders. Plants vs. Zombies is in many ways quite a simple variation on the genre, all of the levels are an identical size and everything is packed onto the screen-sized grid in front of you. This removes the need to move the camera across a wide playing field, as you do in many other tower defence games. As you can see in the screenshots, the zombies approach from the right hand of the screen and, instead of wandering through a maze-like level, they march towards your property along five or six straight tracks. You must place your defences - in the form of various plants - along these tracks in order to kill the zombies before they reach your house."

How a Plants vs. Zombies Game Died so a Star Wars Game Could Live (and Then Also Die)

From IGN: "In the second half of 2016, a small team of developers at PopCap Vancouver were gearing up for a presentation that would determine the future of their team, their project, and potentially an already-beloved franchise: Plants vs. Zombies.

For the past year, they had been working on a brand new Plants vs. Zombies adventure that would take the series in a very different direction. Though they had EA’s blessing for their work to that point, it wasn’t a guarantee the project would ultimately see the light of day, especially given how ambitious it was."
