Fun:
Its got the status Game of the Year for a reason. From when you start playing you have a variety of plants to fight off a variety of different zombies who are attacking your house. Each level it gets more difficult with different plants and zombie types being discovered. You have a neighbour called "crazy dave" and believe me he is a very unique individual who packs a few laughs. Oh also lastly the main game has seperate mini games, so technically for this small very nice price tag your getting more than just 1 game

Fun:
I had the original P vs Z and loved every minute of it; a great, funny casual game. The Game of the Year edition has some good extra content, and I found it definitely worth upgrading. The Zombatars (customised zombie avatars) are not that customisable, but your avatars pop up leading the zombie swarms in the gameplay and can be used as avatars on websites. The achievements are fun and I am enjoying trying for them (and I advise you to scroll down to the bottom of the achievements screen, beyond the actual achievement, for an amusing little extra by the makers). I was sad the dancing zombie has been changed from the Michael Jackson lookalike to a generic Disco Stu type, but I understand that was due to complaints from Jackson's legal team. If you liked the original, I would certainly recommend this, and if you never played it - this is one of the best casual games around. Fun, challenging, and with a terrific sense of humour.

Fun:
Zombies are trying to get into your house to eat your brains, how will you stop them? By planting a variety of fighting plants on your front lawn, backyard, and roof of course! And you'll need a variety because the zombies range from your garden variety (yuk yuk yuk) type who shuffles along, to the kind that are dressed in American football gear, drive zambonis, bungee jump from the sky, or stomp forwards in goliath form with a mini-Salacious-Crumb-type zombie catapulting itself from its back!
Plants Vs Zombies is one of the most addictive games I've ever played. The kind of addictiveness that came from real-time strategy games like Command & Conquer and WarCraft but with more basic, colourful graphics. It's the same tactics though - plant your sunflowers to gather sunlight (the currency in this game) to "buy" fighting plants that shoot peas, lob sweetcorn and melons, and block paths with walnuts, or whatever type of plant you need to take down the different type of zombie.
Magnificently structured, each level adds some new element that keeps you going through to the next. I bought the game on a Saturday lunchtime and finished it by Sunday teatime, looking up from the screen to discover I'd missed the entire weekend! But I didn't mind because it's been years since I've been so engrossed in a game like this, and it was all rendered in simple 2D rather than the flashy 3D games coming out today.
The mini-games add hours more playing time. There's also survival mode, puzzle mode, you can create your own "zen garden", create your own "zombatar", and replay the "adventure" mode with added difficulties. Put simply, for the price you pay (in my case the online download was little more than a sandwich at M&S) you get hours and hours of entertainment. Utterly addictive and incredibly enjoyable and fun, "Plants Vs Zombies" has to be played to be believed.

Good Package
The basic game is actually quite short but what you do get is a vast array of add-ons which give the game a depth you wouldn't imagine it could have at first sight. Read more
