Plants vs. Zombies Gets New Modes and Mini-Games

by

The hugely popular Plants vs. Zombies has received a big update adding several new game modes and mini-games. The game is a big reason why EA paid more than $650 million for PopCap Games.

From our sister-site TouchArcade:

Plants vs. Zombies for iPhone and iPad both received some content loving while you were in bed last night. Plants vs. Zombies iPhone received Vasebreaker Endless mode, which packs in a total of nine levels. The iPad version, on the other hand, now supports Zen Garden, Vasebreaker Endless, "I, Zombies" mode, and four new mini-games: Slot Machine, Portal Combat, Beghouled Twist, and Zombiquarium have been included. The Plants vs. Zombies wiki has delightfully ridiculously in-depth looks on each of these modes, if you need to know exactly what you'll be getting into before updating.

The update is, of course, free for current owners of Plants vs. Zombies. The Mac version of PvZ has not been updated.

Plants vs. Zombies for iPhone is $2.99 on the App Store. [Direct Link]
Plants vs. Zombies HD for iPad is $6.99 on the App Store. [Direct Link]

Does anyone else find it hard to collect coins?

Chocolates help a lot. About 15k for every chocolate with full Zen Garden.
