Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get more sun?
Sun falls from the sky during day levels, and Sunflowers generate additional sun periodically. In night levels, sun doesn't fall naturally, so mushrooms become essential!
What happens when zombies reach my house?
Each lane has a lawnmower that will destroy all zombies in that lane once. After it's used, if another zombie reaches the house in that lane, you lose!
Which plants are best for beginners?
Start with Sunflowers for sun production, Peashooters for basic offense, and Wall-nuts for defense. These three form a solid foundation for any strategy!
How many levels are in Adventure mode?
Adventure mode has 50 levels across different environments including day, night, pool, fog, and roof stages, each introducing new zombies and plants.
