~ The game before it starts. |
Plants are the titular deuteragonists of PopCap Games' Plants vs. Zombies franchise. They are led by the Player and Crazy Dave on their mission to defeat the zombies.
The purpose of the plants is when collected enough sun, they can be planted to support the players to defend their homes from the brain-eating zombies. They are mutants monstrous that can damage them, simply sit back and act as a support, or can only used once. Players must strategize with them to build a perfect defence to protect themselves from the zombie horde.
