Level 2-1

Level 2-1 is the eleventh level in Plants vs. Zombies, Plants vs. Zombies: Journey to the West, and Plants vs. Zombies: Great Wall Edition, and it is the first Night level. It is a regular level. When this level is finished for the first time, the player obtains the Sun-shroom.

Difficulty

• This level is the first level to feature Newspaper Zombies. They move faster once their newspapers are destroyed.
• The unlocked Puff-shroom costs only 0 sun, so it provides free defense. Players should take advantage of using it, as they will be unable to use Sun-shroom when playing this level for the first time.
• Zombies emerge from the graves on the final wave. A good defense should be built beforehand, as the player has no way of countering this ambush when this level is played for the first time.
• After Adventure Mode is completed for the first time, the player can remove all four graves by the Grave Busters.

Strategies

• Required plants:
  • Sunflower
  • Peashooter
  • Puff-shroom
  • Wall-nut
  • Potato Mine
  • Repeater
• Sun does not fall from the sky during night levels, making sun production with Sunflowers less efficient than during the day.
• Plant as many Puff-shrooms as you can to kill the zombies.
• If you cannot cope with the speed of the Newspaper Zombies, use Wall-nuts to temporarily stall them while you build up more defenses.
• This level can also be beaten with nothing but Puff-shrooms.
