Plants Vs. Zombies Review & Free App Giveaway (2 Winners)

Now that we have a Kindle and iPad, I've discovered the wonderful world of Apps. Josiah loves playing games, but I never know which ones to get. How do I know which ones will be fun and which ones are boring? We've just picked through trial and error over time and luckily we've found several favorites on Big Fish Games, including our most favorite of all...
About the Game
Zombies are invading your home and are after your brains! Thankfully, you have your arsenal of plants to defend you in Plants vs. Zombies! Armed with a garden full of peashooters, melon-paults, and cherry bombs, you`ll need to think fast, and plant faster, to stop the different types of zombies dead in their tracks. Obstacles like a setting sun, creeping fog, and a swimming pool add to the challenge and make sure the fun never dies in this addicting Action/Arcade game!
  • Hilarious characters
  • Unlockable challenge modes
  • Protect your brains!
My Thoughts
I originally saw this game months ago when searching for a fun app with my son. He enjoys Arcade & Action Games as well as mystery games where you have to solve puzzles. We've purchased several of those from Big Fish Games over the past year and I think I've enjoyed them as much as he has! He also loves anything with zombies and begged me to download it onto our iPad. Okay, okay! After two days of begging, I finally gave in and after a day of playing, I was totally obsessed. We played it non-stop for weeks, beat the game twice and my son still wanted to play. It's not overly gory and made so that, if anything, the zombies are cute. I particularly love the Disco Zombies that boogie across the screen. Liam likes the old man zombie that gets mad when his newspaper gets ripped.
For this review, I received a code and put the game on my Kindle Fire. To my surprise, there were many new features and updates to Plants vs. Zombies, so once again we went back to playing! The game now has mini-games and puzzles in addition to the quick play, which can be accessed after beating the game the first time. Plus, you can purchase even more fun weapons and helpful items from Crazy Dave's Twiddydinkies.
Disco Zombies
This is such a great way to waste some time and I find myself coming back to this app more than any others. I look forward to sitting back, relaxing and playing a few games of it while the kids are taking a nap or after they've gone to sleep at night. That way I can have the game all to myself! Have you played Plants vs. Zombies yet?

Do you love playing apps, too?
