Almanac

Almanac is an interactive database on Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time where information regarding each Plant, Zombie, Upgrade and Power-up is given. There are three sections in the almanac: Plants, Zombies and Upgrades. When a new world is unlocked, all the plants and zombies of the world is added to the Almanac in a grayed out display with a grey doorlock sign in front of them, before they encountered or unlocked. Premium Plants are always on the almanac in a locked state before they are bought with real money or gems. For each Plant and Zombie, several stats are given, a brief descriptioon is noted and then mostly irrelevent and trivial piece of information abot the plant is given for entertaining purposes.

Almanac in Plants vs. Zombies 2 is mostly inspired from the Suburban Almanac from the predecessor game where bios of plants and zombies were given in a similar manner. New Almanac also includes the costume changer with it where the costumes of any plant with at least one costume can be toggled or removed.

Plants
Plants is the first section of the Almanac. It's where nformation of every plant is given. On the bottom, icons for each plant is listed. Player can scroll left and right in the list to reach the buttons for other plants. New plants are added to the end of the icon list. When a Plant is selected, the plant's name and apperance is displayed on a panel. There, the plant can be seen planted and idling on a tile. Different plants are displayed on different tiles, depending on which world they were obtained. on the bottom-right side of the appearance display, the sun cost of the plant is noted. Plants obtained through the tutorial and Premium plants are always shown on the Player's House. If the player owns a costume or several costumes for a plant, "The Costume Changer", a transparent, glass like screen is placed on the plant display. Player can tap on it to toggle between other costumes and costumeless view of the plant. On the right of the display panel, information regarding the selected plant is displayed. On top of the information, maximum three stats of the plant are given. Depending on the plant's role, these stats can be; Toughteness, Recharge, Range, Damage or Area. Below, the utility of the plant is given and also special information about it's usage is written in red ink for some plants.
