Dark Ages

Dark Ages is a world in Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time. It is the first world in Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time to be in a night time setting while it's the fifth world in general. The mushrooms made their debut here.

As it namesake says, Dark Ages takes during the ninth century where culture and economy slowly deteriorates mankind that follows the decline of the Roman Empire. Also, the use of Black Magic like Necromancy became also the center of usage for evil purposes.

Like in Ancient Egypt, tombstones appear in Dark Ages. However, they can now spawn by themselves, summon zombies through an ambush called "Necromancy!", and some tombstones even reward players with sun and Plant Food when destroyed. Also, sun does not fall from the sky in Dark Ages, because it is nighttime. Graves will also spontaneously rise from the ground occasionally. If a grave spawns where there is a plant, it and all plants in front or backwards of it will move forward one column.



Game description
''Bring out your undead to the year 948! Harvest mushrooms in the dark of knight and get medieval on zombies from the days of yore!''

Zombies Boost
Zombies Boost is Dark Ages's exclusive Brain Buster.



These levels's layouts are exactly the same as the normal levels. But potions will raise from the ground and boost zombies if they're stepped on. The potions will bring different effects to the zombies. Such as increasing their health and speed.

Special Delivery
Special Delivery is an exclusive brain buster without any criterion to full fill in order to achieve victory. Much like the  Gargantuar battles, the plants provided to the player are given via conveyor-belt and must survive a set of waves.

Locked and Loaded
Locked and Loaded makes the player restricted to the plants that they will use. They are only required to use the plants given to them in order to win the battle. Even though the plant is locked yet, they can get a tendency to use that plant (Unless it's unlocked already). This will serve as a demo for that plant if ever that manages to happen. The player must win only using the given plants to them. Locked and Loaded serves as a reference for a certain weapon in real life, where once it is armed, it should not be disarmed any more.

Last Stand
The player must survive a flag in order to accomplish the level. In this Brain Buster, the player is given an extreme amount of sun to make use of and two or four Plant Foods at their disposal because there will be no glowing zombies and falling suns to replenish sun for plant production to aid the player from a victory. Sunflowers, Sun-shroom, Sun Bean and Twin Sunflowers are not allowed in this brain buster, but other than these two, there are other plants as well that are not allowed. Followed by that, the player will deal then with an extreme number of zombies charging at their lawn. If the player is very creative enough to formulate his own plan, he can win without the aid of Plant Food
