     Hey you guys it's chris and i wanted to tell you about this game that i've been playing. It's called Plants vs. Zombies or PvS, for short. 

     Now this game is a tower defense game based on plants killing zombies trying to get into your home, hence the name Plants Vs. Zombies.

     This game was created by Popcap which is a gaming company that created other games like Bejeweled, Peggle, Zuma, and of course Plants vs. Zombies. These people created the wonderful game PvS in 2009, made for P.C. and Mac. This game is everything you can think of with zombies. 

      The main idea of the game is of course to not let the zombies eat your brains. You have all these different plants that allow you to stop the zombies from coming into the house and eating you up. Pea Plants, which are little green plants that shoot peas, you have the frozen pea plants that shoot frozen peas and then the Repeater pea plant that shoots like two peas at a time.

But that's not all you have, you also have Cherry Bombs which explode an area full of zombies, a Chomper which eats a zombie whole, to even mushrooms or "Puff Shrooms" that shoot out little spoors. It's very interesting and the way you buy these plants is with... wait for it... sunlight. Yup, you have a special plant which is a Sunflower of all plants, that gives you sunlight to be able to buy these plants. It's a tower defense game and it's Epic. 

      I would understand if some people didn't like it because it is a time consuming game, but you must understand it's a very addicting game and crazy. You just want to play it forever and ever. You can't even help it when you ignore your work and decide to just play. It's an amazing game and i recommend every one to get it and play it.

      There are about 50 different levels to the game and that doesn't even include the mini games and the puzzle games. It also has a book called the Almanac which shows you all the different types of plants you have and the different types of zombies you have. 

       There are many types of zombies from the normal zombie to the zombie that rides a dolphin in the pool. These zombies have one thing in mind and that's brains. Ha. They just want to eat them and what's cute about the game is that sometimes after you pass a level you retrieve a letter that is "Supposedly" from the zombies and they always misspell words, it's great.

       This game is funny, intense and the most epic game i've played. I love it. I ask that you guys look into this game and enjoy it with me :). Also i found a website where a guy wrote a review on this game. It's by: Psychotronic and it's a great review. I suggest you guys read it just in case i didn't give you enough information.
