Plants Vs. Zombies : TIPS AND TRICKS




ENCYCLOPEDIA:


The Plants
* Plants with a * are single use plants and will disappear after their function is complete.
  • PeashooterPeashooter - This is the most basic plant in your arsenal, and the backbone of any strong defense throughout the early stages of the game.

  • SunflowerSunflower - Plant these to increase the amount of sun you will get. Sun is vital to plants and to your survival! Two columns of these should be built in each stage.

  • Cherry BombCherry Bomb* - Plant these to get an explosive reaction from the zombies nearby. Great for taking out groups of enemies, works in a 3x3 grid centered around where you place it.

  • Wall-NutWall-Nut - a great defensive plant, that will hold the zombie hoards at bay while your other plants pick them off.

  • Potato MinePotato Mine* - Great for taking out strong enemies in lanes where you don't have a wall-nut up yet, or to take care of pole vaulting zombies that make it over your wall-nut. SPUDOW!

  • Snow PeaSnow Pea - Snow Peas will freeze zombies and make them walk and eat slower. Great for holding back strong units while your stronger plants take them out. If a snow pea bullet passes through a Torchwood it will melt the ice turning it into a regular pea, losing the freezing effect.
  • ChomperChomper - Chompers work great in combination with your wall-nuts and tall-nuts. They will devour most zombies in one bite, but it takes some time for them to swallow.

  • RepeaterRepeater - These are a great addition to your arsenal. They cost twice as much as a peashooter, but do twice as much damage, and still only take up one space.

  • Puff ShroomPuff-shroom - These are a staple for any night time level, they may be weak, but they can still take out a zombie. What's even better is they're free!

  • Sun ShroomSun-shroom - These little guys cost half as much as a sunflower, but only give you 15 sun to start with. After a while they will grow to full size and give you 25 sun. I still prefer sunflowers over these, even in night levels.
  • Fume ShroomFume-shroom - These work great on the early night levels, and their attacks pass right through the screen door zombies!

  • Grave BusterGrave Buster* - These plants will eat the graves you see in the night levels, and will even pop out a coin when you they are done!

  • Hypno-ShroomHypno-shroom* - These will turn any zombie that tries to eat them into a zombie that works for you. Great against football zombies! The zombie will fight backwards until it walks right off your lawn.
  • Scaredy-ShroomScaredy-shroom - these long-range plants are cheap, but they will hide if a zombie gets too close. Not very effective alone.

  • Ice ShroomIce-Shroom* - This mushroom will freeze every zombie on screen and do a little bit of damage to each of them.

  • Doom ShroomDoom-shroom* - These bad boys will blow up a huge area on your lawn and destroy all zombies within range, however the tile you planted them on will need some time to recover before it can be used again.
  • Lily PadLily pad - Not much to say about these other than they allow you to build on the water.

  • SquashSquash* - These guys will crush enemies that get too close. if there are multiple zombies in a small area it will crush all of them.

  • ThreepeaterThreepeater - Threepeaters will fire across 3 lanes, each pea is slightly stronger than a peashooters. Great for the three center lanes but there is no point in putting them on out outer lanes.
  • Tangle KelpTangle Kelp* These work like potato mines, but are to be placed in the water.

  • JalapenoJalapeno* - These guys are just bursting to get into the action. Placing one of these will destroy all the zombies in the lane they are in.

  • SpikeweedSpikeweed - The spikeweed will attack any zombie that walks over it, as well as popping tires on zombonies and Catapult zombies. Popping a tire will destroy the spikeweed and you'll need to plant a new one.
  • TorchwoodTorchwood - Placing these in front of plants that shoot peas will set the peas on fire and do triple damage! Snow peas will melt and lose their freezing effect though. Also drives away fog for a few tiles around itself.
  • Tall-NutTall-Nut - Harder, better, taller, stronger than the wall-nut. The tall-nut will keep enemies at bay for a long time, as well as preventing pole vaulting or dolphin riding zombies from jumping over them.

  • Sea ShroomSea-shroom These water based fungi work much like the puff-shrooms only they can be placed in water, however their recharge rate is quite slow.

  • PlanternPlantern - Plant these in the fog to drive it back, so you can see whats happening on your lawn. They are pretty weak and don't do any damage though, so put a Tall-Nut in front of one so it doesn't get demolished.
  • CactusCactus - The cactus will pop balloons, as well as attacking zombies on the ground.

  • BloverBlover* - Blover will blow away any air zombies, and temporarily blow away all the fog. Decent substitute for planterns and cacti, while only taking up one seed slot.

  • Split PeaSplit Pea - Split peas will shoot forward and backwards, however they shoot twice as fast backwards and they do forwards. Good for tunneling zombies, and not much more expensive than peashooters.
  • StarfruitStarfruit - Starfruit shoot in 5 directions. None of them are forward. Works well in groups, though.

  • PumpkinPumpkin - Pumpkins surround another plant protecting them from zombies. Even works on Tall-nuts adding a much stronger layer to your defensive lines.

  • Magnet ShroomMagnet-shroom - This mushroom will steal metal objects from zombies, such as buckets, helmets, ladders, and pickaxes. Great to have a few of these behind Tall-nuts, even during the day, although you'll have to wake one up using the Coffee bean.
  • Cabbage-pultCabbage-pult - Plant these on the roof to lob cabbages at the zombies, where peashooters can't reach due to the roofs incline.

  • Flower PotFlower Pot - This plant lets you plant plants on your roof! Sounds crazy but it works! Just like a lily pad but for your roof.

  • Kernel-pultKernel-pult - These guys will lob corn, and occasionally butter at the zombies. The corn is a bit weaker than cabbage, but the butter is just as strong as cabbage and will also stop zombies in their tracks.
  • Coffee BeanCoffee Bean* - Plant this on your mushrooms during the day to wake them up!

  • GarlicGarlic - These guys smell bad, but work great! Zombie will take one bit of these and move into another lane!

  • Umbrella LeafUmbrella Leaf - Umbrella Leafs will protect nearby plants from bungee zombies, and from catapult zombies.

  • MarigoldMarigold - While she won't attack, the marigold will spit out cash for you to collect. A few of these with the Gold magnet-shroom will do wonders for your bank account.

  • Melon-pultMelon-pult. - The Melon-pult lob watermelons at zombies doing large amounts of damage to groups of zombies! Great addition to your lineup.

  • Imitater - The imitater works just like your other plants. In fact it works EXACTLY like your other plants. Pick the imitater and it will give you the option to pick a plant. This way you can have two of the same plant in your arsenal. This will reduce the waiting time to build plants by half!

Plant Upgrades
These upgrades are one time upgrades to the plants that you already have in your arsenal.

  • Gatling PeaGatling Pea - Upgrade for the Repeater, shoots 4 peas instead of two for a relentless, fierce attack. Add a Torchwood into the mix for a Zombie barbecue.

  • Twin SunflowerTwin Sunflower - Upgraded version of the sunflower, producing two sun each time. Great for long levels, survival mode, and for maximizing spots available for offensive plants.

  • gloom.jpgGloom-ShroomAn upgraded version of the Fume-Shroom, this plant will release toxic fumes in a small area around itself. Attacks quickly, but short range.

  • CattailCattail - Upgraded Lily Pad. The Cattail can attack on any lane, and it also pops balloon zombies. Having at least one of these in longer pool levels instead of cacti is a great way to save space and money.
  • Winter MelonWinter Melon - Upgrade of the Melon-Pult. Adds a freezing attack to the Melon-Pult, but fires at a slower speed. Adding one or two of these is a great way to slow down zombies when you are using Spikerocks. Frozen zombies will thaw if hit with a flaming pea.
  • Golden Magnet-shroomGold Magnet-shroom - Inexpensive upgrade to the Magnet-shroom. Removes the magnet ability but it will collect coins and diamonds for you. Great if you have a lot of marigolds, but not really essential.
  • SpikerockSpiderock - This upgrade to the Spikeweed can pop multiple tires before giving out and does more damage to zombies walking over it.

  • Cob CannonCob Cannon - This is the strongest plant you can get. You must build it over two Kernel Pults, and click it to activate its massive attack.

The Zombies

  • Flag ZombieFlag Zombie - Just because he has a flag doesn't mean he doesn't want your brains! Leads every "Huge wave of zombies".

  • Conehead ZombieConehead Zombie - Regular Zombie with a traffic cone that helps with defense. Takes about twice as much damage as a Regular Zombie.

  • Pole Vaulting ZombiePole Vaulting Zombie - He moves fast until he meets the first plant, which he will vault over (unless it's a Tall-Nut), and then he moves slow.

  • Newspaper ZombieNewspaper zombie - This zombie will charge at you once you destroy his newspaper.

  • Screen Door ZombieScreen Door Zombie - This zombie protects himself with his screen door, however fume-shrooms will pass right through the screen and attack him directly.

  • Ducky Tube ZombieDucky Tube Zombie - This zombie is really weak, and only appears in the pool lanes.

  • Snorkel ZombieSnorkel Zombie - This zombie stays underwater until he attacks. Place lily pads near the from of the pool to draw him out. Kelp works too.

  • ZomboniZomboni - The Zomboni crushes plants and leaves a trail of ice behind him. You can't build on the ice and bobsled zombies will appear if there is ice. Use Spikeweeds to pop his tires.

  • Zombie Bobsled TeamZombie Bobsled Team - These guys will ride in on ice, and go fast until they run out of ice. They are pretty weak but there are four of them.

  • Ladder ZombieLadder zombie - This zombie will place a ladder down on the first plant he meets allowing zombies to simple climb over that plant. Bad if he puts one on a Tall-nut. Magnet-shrooms will take his ladder away, and cherry bombs will dislodge ladders that he managed to place.

  • Catapult ZombieCatapult Zombie - This zombie will sit at the back of your roof or lawn and launch basketballs at your plants. Use spikeweeds to pop his tires, and get rid of him easily.

  • GargantuarGargantuar - This giant will crush your plants, and extremely strong. Try to take him out using bombs, jalapeños, Squashes or anything you can before he destroys your plants. He will lob the imp zombie when he is low on health.

  • Imp ZombieImp zombie - Although he is very weak often times he will be launched past your plants and right to your sunflowers, or your lawnmowers or roof/pool cleaners.

  • Dr. ZombossDr. Zomboss - Here he is. The leader of the zombies. Use Ice-shrooms to freeze him when he is down, and let your other plants attack him. Keep an ice-shroom and a jalapeño for when he throws a fire ball or ice ball at you.



General Hints and Tips

1. For the most part in adventure mode, and survival mode you will want to start by getting two rows of sunflowers as fast as you can, at the back of your lawn

2. While you are trying to get your sunflowers up, try to only build plants that you will need immediately. Such as a peashooter only in a lane where a zombie is approching.

3. Once you've got your sunflowers up, start focusing on your defences. You will need to use different strategies depending on what level you are on.

4. Try to keep at least one bomb type plant in your inventory on each level just in case things get bad.

5. If there is a lull in zombies use the break to dig up and replace badly damaged wall-nuts or tall-nuts.

6. It may be worth it in later levels to bring coffee beans and magnet-shrooms with you in daytime battles. to help deal with metal weilding zombies.

7. If a snow pea shoots through a torchwood then it will cancel out the freezing effect.












 Increase Plant Growth:

Disable full screen mode. Go to your zen garden. After feeding the plants, it will normally take thirty minutes to feed them again. To feed them all, change the system time to an earlier value. This will increase their growth.
