Plants vs. Zombies™ games have produced one of the most successful mobile game series on both platforms, amassing tens of millions of downloads and scooping up the industry’s most prestigious awards on their way to an undeniably legendary status. The ingenious basic concept pitting an army of battle plants spitting all-vegan cannonballs against a horde of evildoer zombies putting their own tailor-made arsenal into use on their quest to snatching brains allows developers to always come up with something new. This time around, they have added superpowered zombies and plants to the mix to further expand the already colorful universe of clumsily malevolent zombies and brain-defending plants.
According to the story of Plants vs. Zombies™ Heroes, Zomboss, the super smart, super evil, and super mad zombie scientist plans to unleash a new breed of superpowered zombies to once again try to take over the world. But something goes wrong: the beam Zomboss employs to level up his zombies gets out of his control and while running amok, gives life to not only a blood-freezing horde of super zombies, but also to their equally mighty plant counterparts.
The gameplay you have gotten used to in previous Plants vs. Zombies™ episodes has remained intact, although it has been fine-tuned to the superpowered circumstances. You start out with Green Shadow, the caped plant avenger, and you get a basic set of cards containing a variety of plants you can throw out onto the battlefield when going up against the many mega zombies you have to defeat on your quest of ridding the world of Zomboss’ powerful minions. Battles consist of four rounds: first, zombies make their move, then it’s up to plants to counter that move, then come the mischievous zombie tricks, and then it is battle time! Defeating each enemy requires a different strategy, so use your brains and plant-power you spend on cards wisely! As the battle progresses, you get more power each round, but the cards you get is totally random, meaning victory or defeat is often based on pure luck.
The whole game has a comic book-like feel and is peppered with adorably awkward one-liners, so for us, it was impossible to not like Plants vs. Zombies™ Heroes. It is challenging, fun, has a unique atmosphere and gameplay, outstanding longevity, and is more addictive than brains for zombies.
