The best part, by far, is siccing zombies on your friends.

Your zombie kills are logged and compared to your friends and you can take your RV on the road to your friends’ towns. The social aspect of a Facebook game is there, of course. Your town, which can be massively expanded, requires time to grow as well, as building construction can take up to hours. Basics like the Sunflower and Peashooter don’t take long at all, but the better the plant, the longer the grow time. To gather plants to guard your town or to take on the road with you (which is, by the way, an adorable idea – I want to get in a RV with a crop of Laura Shigihara-singing sunflowers), you have to plant them first in planter boxes on your property. Some patience is also required, because PvZ:A falls into another trap that a lot of free to play app games do: many actions take real time. PROTECT THAT RV WITH YOUR LIVES, PLANT ARMY Zombucks, while they can be picked up in game, are of course, much easier and come in greater bulk if you provide actual bucks. A few levels in, the game starts to limit you from furthering your road trip adventures by either spending zombucks or sending requests to your friends.

While you can purchase extras like speed-ups for building construction and ‘Zombucks’ for item purchase, playing for free doesn’t inhibit your zombie-killing, plant-growing ambitions. PvZ:A starts out as a pretty easily free to play game. HE’S GOT A POT ON HIS HEAD) and often work in conjunction with a road trip a rescue of new NPC or item or task you with expanding your town’s resources.Ī lot of times Facebook games are just barely ‘free to play’ as so many power-ups, speed-ups or other useful bonuses require cold, hard cash that you can’t get anywhere playing it on a free basis. Quests are given from NPCs like our old favorite Crazy Dave (the reoccurring dialog confirmation box confusion when he’s referred to as ‘David’ is the best ongoing joke. There is a ton of content in this Facebook game – the adventure road trip is long, and your town, which needs reclaiming from the zombies, lot by lot, can potentially grow to epic anti-zombie proportions. Zombies, combining the Sims-like expansion and decoration of your town and the PvZ tower defense of both defending your town and going on a road trip (the aforementioned Adventures!) to defeat zombies in the world. PvZ:A plays like a weird but fun mix of The Sims and the original Plants vs. Now that I’ve gotten to play some of PvZ Adventures, I realize that fear wasn’t quite as terrifying as a Yeti-Zombie. Having sunk so many hours into the original PvZ, the idea of a PvZ Facebook game was both exciting and harrowing…who has that kind of time? Zombies Adventures is a free to play Facebook game. The successor for PvZ has taken PopCap in a slightly different direction – Plants vs. PvZ is a great game the PC version has tons of extra bonus games and the main game is re-playable forever. Zombies than I have almost any other game except for Tetris (as a kid I didn’t have any consoles except an NES, thusly I am amazing at Teris, Kirby’s Adventure and smacking a console until it functions). I’ve probably logged more time playing Plants vs.
