For anyone interested in playing this, here's what I think of the Chinese version versus the Internation version (copy and pasted from another thread):

Disadvantages of the Chinese version:

 International version has much better picture and sound quality. Even on my phone I can notice a significant difference. Far Future just came out in China, three months later than in the International version. Dark Ages nowhere to be seen yet. Chinese version is full of "features" designed to nickel-and-dime you out of every penny. You have to pay to unlock the Turbo button. Overall, the game is more difficult, which prompts you to pay for stuff like the Nuclear Cucumber or to get more suns. Plants require pointless grinding to unlock. Some stars are very difficult to earn without cheating (Nuclear Cucumber or extra suns) And now it looks like the update just made things worse without fixing the current issues. 

Advantages of the Chinese version:

 Kung-fu World. I have to say I found this to be very fun, and it's more challenging than any of the International worlds More levels in each world. The Chinese version is like the Internation pre 1.7</li> All plants can be obtained without paying real money. The caveat, however, is that you have to put quite a bit of time into the game to get them.</li> </ul>

I think overall the International version is superior.
