It's more difficult than Plants vs. Zombies. It's almost impossible to pass customs without boxes.
ADD MOOOOOOOOORE DEVELOPERS OF THE GAME.
The gameplay is pretty good for a mobile game, but even after we paid to remove ads, there were still lots of those annoying "watch ad for this very good bonus that you need" so you still need to watch ads even if you pay to not watch ads.
The last 10-15 levels having to place wood planks to stand on was kind of redundant, and an artificial way to increase difficulty, but in terms of quality for a free game, its there. Our biggest complaint is the anticlimactic ending. Once you beat mission 40 it just acts like it never happened, so essentially the end-game is repeating the same exact hardest level over and over again. So, 0 replay ability. We suppose thats to be expected from a freemium, but its too bad they didnt innovate a little further beyond 40 stages and make an ending that was at least satisfying.
So Ive been playing this and we gotta say its a pretty fun game. It has unique towers to choose from and good pixel art. We suggest playing this if you like pvz. But we do have some problems with it 1.the difficulty ramps up very quickly early game once you get the tnt tactican the game assumes that you have it every game and proceeds to spam enemies, making that tower the only thing keeping the game possible. And it makes it worse with no clone of lawn mowers, meaning if any enemy were to pass the gate its game over 2. The game design for progress is that you start of with 2 slots and move up, like normal. But it only gives you 1 slot every few levels, making you choose plants. It makes it annoying as it makes you leave out important plants. 3. You can use adds to get free locked characters. Its pesky design to get add revenue Overall great game but fix these problems please.
This game on its own is great we like the pixels with it own feeling of lose and hope to when you beat a very hard level or make a move that stops the enemys from fully advancing. And it has its own kind of units from small to big, weak to strong, low price to high price and to put the cherry on top it also has it own speed of the gameplay its not to easy but also not to hard if youre quick and have good hand eye coordination then its easy but if you dont then its more difficult.
When you try and place units it pulls down Notification Center instead. Got really annoying that we couldnt play because of this.
Its just a bland and pixelated rip off of pvz.
