Travel Log

The Travel Log is a feature introduced in the 3.5.1 update of Plants vs. Zombies 2. It tasks players with completing quests such as unlocking a certain plant or world, or defeating a number of zombies. The player is then rewarded with coins and gems for completing these tasks. It also uses a ranking system to give the player a rank, which is then scored in Game Center or Google Play under the name of "Travel Log's Plank Ranks". These ranks can be leveled up by completing the quests for points. If the player has already completed quests before updating to 3.5.1, they will automatically be given the points and rewards they would have been given when they open the Travel Log menu for the first time.

Update history

 * 3.7.1: New repeatable quests have been introduced in order to give challenges to players that already completed all the primary quests. Those are completed by defeating X determined zombies and by beating levels on Endless Zones.
 * 4.0.1: The player can play a Piñata Party level featuring a premium plant to "test it out" for free. Once completed, the player will be awarded 10 points and a money bag (if one counts the bag awarded through clearing the level, alongside money from lawn mowers)
 * 4.5.1: The Travel Log could be accessed through the main menu.
 * 4.7.1: New repeatable quests have been added for the Frostbite Caves zombies. Also, the quests for completing the number of levels in Greatest Hits, La Brainsa Tarpits and Highway to the Danger Room have been added.

Epic Quests
Introduced in the 4.6.1 update, the Epic Quests consist of a 10 or 5 level quest that offers an exclusive reward when completed, that can be either Gems, coins or new plants, like Gold Bloom and Electric Currant. These levels are modified versions of existing ones, and cannot be replayed once completed.

Trivia

 * When the player completes any level, a notification will appear, reminding the players of how many levels or zombies killed are left until they are able to complete the quest.
 * Kernel-pult does not have a hyphen in its name for its quest.
 * In the Dark Ages quests, the text will say that the player has to complete a day, despite it being night.
 * Several zombies are named differently in the Travel Log:
 * Pianist Zombies are called Piano Zombies in their quest.
 * Troglobites are called Troglobite Zombies in their quest.
 * Weasel Hoarders are called Weasel Hoarder Zombies in their quest.
 * MC Zom-Bs are called MC Zom B Zombies in their quest.
 * Jurassic Fossilheads are called Fossilhead Zombies in their quest.
 * Jurassic Bullies are called Bully Zombies in their quest.
 * Super-Fan Imps are called Super-fan Imp Zombies in their quest.
 * Gargantuar variants are called with "Zombies" after their name in their quest.
 * Its name is a pun on "travel log," a book used to record a traveler's experiences, and "log," a part of a tree trunk that has been cut off, and traveling, as the theme of the game is time traveling and focuses on plants.
 * When a player already completed some quests before the 3.5.1 update, he or she will receive the text: "You already completed some quests, before they even existed! It's funny how time travel works." They will also receive all the awards put together, with the last figure always ending with the number 5.
 * Before the 3.7.1 update, the highest rank the player could achieve was 35.
 * As of 3.7.1 update, the rank cap has been increased to infinity, as with the help of the repeatable quests.
 * However, if the player has two profiles on the same device, one with all plants and level completed and unlocked while the other one has very few of either, switching to his or her profile with all levels unlocked and opening Travel Log will complete any quests previously uncompleted and will add to your rank.
 * This suggests that the player can actually increase his or her rank without any new quests or updates.
 * As of 3.6.1/3.6.2 update, it has now a cardboard next to it with "Travel Log" written on it.
 * In the 3.7.1 update, the Travel Log quests until complete GUI has changed.
 * The Endless Zone quests (for example: Challenge Big Bad Butte) can repeat with the number of levels required and points increased each repeat.
 * First repeat: Play 3 levels (5 pts)
 * Second repeat: Play 5 levels (10 pts)
 * There is a glitch where the same repeatable quests appear every day, and they are completed instantly. There is also a glitch that a quest may not appear until the player completes it.
 * In the 3.8.1 update, the quest notifications appear after getting something an item or plant at the end of a level.
 * There is a glitch where main quests seem to completely disappear from the Travel Log when viewing them; however, they are actually there, but just invisible.
 * There is no quest that tells players to unlock Cabbage-pult or Iceberg Lettuce, although it does exist in the game's text files.
 * The quest for unlocking Neon Mixtape Tour wasn't added until the 4.2.1 update.
 * Before the 4.7.1 update, Frostbite Caves was the only fully released world that didn't have any repeatable quests.
 * Since the 4.5.1 update, the Travel Log can be accessed from the main menu.
 * Snorkel Zombie's repeatable quest alludes his almanac entry from the first game.
 * When doing the Beghouled Blitz Epic Quest, defeated zombies that have a repeatable quest for that moment will not count toward the quest.
