Difficulty[]

The player is able to try out the Hypno-shroom, which will ally the plants by eating other zombies. Because of this, the most ideal zombies to use Hypno-shroom on are Conehead and Buckethead Peasants. However, the player will need other plants to defeat the zombies. The given plants though, are not that useful. Grave Buster is an exception, as this will help the player avoid dangerous Necromancy ambushes in the level. Cabbage-pult is the main offensive plant here. The problem is that Cabbage-pult ignores tombstones if there is a zombie on lane. Puff-shroom will directly attack the tombstones, but are relatively weak, and will usually be eaten quickly. The key to winning is using Plant Food on Hypno-shroom wisely, as the zombie who eats it will turn into a Gargantuar.

Strategies[]

  • If you get a Hypno-shroom at first, do not waste it because using it on Peasant Zombies is a very bad idea. Keep planting Cabbage-pults and Puff-shrooms to survive. Plant Grave Busters to destroy the tombstones.
  • Save Plant Food for Hypno-shrooms.
  • A Buckethead Peasant and Conehead Peasant will always appear at the same time and the same lane. Use a Hypno-shroom now, but if:
    • The Buckethead Peasant is affected, then it is okay.
    • The Conehead Peasant is affected, use another Hypno-shroom or plant more Puff-shrooms.
  • After the final wave, many Buckethead Peasants and Conehead Peasants will appear. If you forget to use Plant Food on the Hypno-shrooms to summon some Gargantuars, you will most likely lose due to the weak plants you got. They cannot help you deal with the zombies, unless you have the Puff-shroom or Cabbage-pult's boost.
