Strategic, silly, clean-looking, tower defense with ZOMBIES.

You gain resources (solar energy) using sunflowers, and at night slow-growing mushrooms, but you can't delay putting in defense for too long, else your resource plants will get eaten by zombies. Its light-hearted atmosphere and RTS-lite build order combine to create an addictive and enjoyable scaling challenge. As you go along you can unlock new plants to create a new "deck" of plants available. I've only played the demo, but it was about an hour or two of fun.

New zombies also unlock as time goes on; some are tougher, some are faster, some are dolphins.

If I had an iPhone, I'd pay $3 to play this. At a minimum, it would be a lot of fun when I was stuck somewhere boring.

I hate zombies. From their truely grotesque appearence to the fact that they were once human too; I can't stand the things. My classmate in German (2) appears to be addicted to this odd game (as well as like, thousands of other people). I don't see the point of yet another tower defence game that have been "sprouting" up over the internet like things that sprout up...
Well, for one it is actually a soundly built tower defense game. Sure there are thousands of tower defense games but most of them are deeply flawed in some fashion.

That and the game make the zombie apocolypse so...whimsical.

My friends and I have stopped referring to it as a casual game, due to it's complexity and how fricking tough some of the levels can be, and how many different play styles are available. It might be RTS-Lite, but it's still some damn good RTS/TD fun! The minigames range from easy as pissing in a cold pool on a hot day all the way up to eye-twitchingly, throbbing-vein-inducing, white-knuckled frustration. Oh, and the Zen Garden? Absolutely awesome.

This kinda thing blows my mind. If there was ever a license to print money, this kinda thing is it. They sold all these copies of the game with absolutely ZERO cost to make.

Honestly, the game should have cost a quarter, not the what, $10 they probably charged(I don't know, I don't own an iphone)

I got the game on the first day it was released, and it was worth the money.
Seriously, train rides go by so quickly playing this game.

I loved the PC version. I saw my friend playing it on his iPhone and decided to start playing again on PC.

tbh, tower defense games are one thing that really would work well with the iphone. I might actually get this...

But the plants! The zombies! It's so childish yet so simply amazing with not much really to back it up but it is just that much more fun!

Spread the word, then, like it's a comically written untold gospel of how the end shall happen. Or, alternatively, finish it, hear the song, and play that song to your friends who have not played it, getting it stuck in their heads, forever, causing them to eventually give in and play the game!
