Close Shave

Diffculty: Easy (Very Easy in Versus Mode)

Close Shave is an achievement that is unlockable on Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, and PlayStation Vita versions of Plants vs. Zombies. In order to complete it, the player must win a level when all of their lawn mowers are used.

Strategy
In Wall-nut Bowling, when a huge wave of Zombies appears, the player should let them use up the Lawn Mowers and then play the rest of the level, or wait until only the final wave is left, and wait. This is quite easy especially since the player will get outnumbered very quickly. Also, he or she should try to protect all the Lawn Mowers until the Final Wave, when all the Zombies appear, where the player does not do anything. When all the Zombies are killed by the Lawn Mowers, the player get this Achievement. Also, in Whack a Zombie, the player should let one zombie get by in each row but play the rest of the level as normal. The player can even play any level but dig up all his or her plants in the final wave.

On an easy level, you can just let the first few zombies die, and then you can plant plants and play it like a normal level, as long as you don't let any plants out after.

Trivia

 * In the Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network versions, this achievement can be earned in Versus Mode.
 * Close Shave means barely making it. This is due to the fact that the player completed "barely" completed the level due to all lawn mowers being lost.
 * The PS Vita version's icon shows Crazy Dave without his beard, holding a shaver.
