Frostbite Caves - Day 5 is the fifth level of Frostbite Caves in Plants vs. Zombies 2. It is a Special Delivery level. This level introduces Pepper-pult. There are eight frozen plants on the lawn, five Cabbage-pults and three Bonk Choys. The "Snowstorm!" ambush makes its first appearance here. After completing this level, the player receives a money bag.

Dialogue (intro)[]

(Crazy Dave and Penny appear)
Crazy Dave: I'm starting to get cold feet about this place.
Crazy Dave: Also, my feet are getting very cold.
Penny: Time to turn up the heat. I recommend Pepper-pult for the job.
Penny: He lobs hot peppers at zombies and also keeps nearby plants warm.
Crazy Dave: Let's pick a peck of Pepper-pults! It is the perfect plant for out predicament!
Penny: Must you rhyme, User Dave? Must you?
(Crazy Dave and Penny leave)

Difficulty[]

This level can be difficult to win if the plants are not planted properly. Firstly, take advantage of Pepper-pult's thawing ability to unfreeze the pre-placed frozen plants. Later in the level, the player can easily become swarmed with zombies, and can potentially lose. In addition, the plants come in very slowly, so getting a proper defense early in the level can become hard. Hunter Zombie will most likely be in crowds freezing plants. To counter this, use Plant Food or place Pepper-pults near plants. The key to winning is to use Pepper-pult's ability and splash damage to deal as much damage as possible to the zombies.

Strategies[]

  • The first priority is to unfreeze the Cabbage-pults by planting Pepper-pults next to them. Surprisingly, unfreezing the Bonk Choys is not vital to completing this level.
  • It is important to secure the second lane. A Bonk Choy is excellent, while another one in the space between the two slider tiles is even better.
  • Cave Conehead Zombies and Cave Buckethead Zombies usually make it past the topmost slider tile and the deep in the fourth row, respectively. For Coneheads, a Bonk Choy behind the first slider tile is essential. For the Buckethead, stalling it as much as possible is probably the best option. Bonk Choy is also very useful here.
  • Plant Food is scarce and should be best used on Bonk Choys when large amounts of zombies overwhelm the second row.

Trivia[]

  • Before starting the level, Penny rhetorically asks "Must you rhyme, User Dave?", but Crazy Dave was actually tongue twisting.
    • In addition, there is no rhyme in what Crazy Dave said.
