Level 3-5


 * For the Mini-games version of this level, see Big Trouble Little Zombie.

Level 3-5 is the twenty-fifth Plants vs. Zombies level and the fifth Pool level. To complete this level, the player must not let the zombies into his or her house. When the player is finished with this level for the first time, he or she earns the Jalapeno.

Difficulty

 * The player has to again deal against tons of zombies with the given plants. More zombies spawn than usual on this level, although there they take less damage to die.
 * This means that Wall-nuts will not be as in much importance as before (though they are still crucial to pass the level.

Strategies

 * Given plants:
 * Peashooter
 * Wall-nut
 * Lily Pad
 * Cherry Bomb
 * Try to aim for at least two Peashooters in each row and a column or two of Wall-nuts to defend the Peashooters. These zombies, although they take little health to die, spawn in big groups to make the level difficult.
 * Use Cherry Bombs sparingly: maybe when tons of Football Zombies and Snorkel Zombies are in play. You also need to use Cherry Bombs when the big wave of zombies approaches.
 * If your garden cannot hold up by the amount of zombies, lawn mowers temporarily will take care of the grass lanes for defense.

Trivia

 * The mini-game version of this level is much harder than this level.
