Taco Park (PvZ:WOR)

:For the version in the pre-2021 version of PvZ3, see Taco Park.
Taco Park is the third world in Plants vs. Zombies: Wrath Of Rogue. There are 25 levels to play, 5 plants to obtain, 12 zombies to fight against, 3 locations on the map to unlock, and one boss to defeat.
Taco Park has three gimmicks. The first gimmick is the condition where sun falls from the sky. Although the lawn contains a purplish sky, one may think this world takes place at night without sun falling from the sky. It actually takes place during the day, since the purple fog is just there due to the atmosphere in a zombie-orientated area being an unnatural color that might fool players when they first enter Taco Park, until context clues from the game's dialogue and the world description give evidence of it truly being daytime.
The second gimmick is the frisbee. Similar to the Bloomerang's projectiles, a frisbee will be tossed in a straight line in one lane, before retreating off-screen. The frisbee can easily defeat low-health zombies for the player, although it has a has a slight chance of inadvertently damaging some of the plants that were placed in that lane. Gargantuars take less damage from the frisbee, so they don't be insta-killed by it, while bosses are immune to the effects entirely. A frisbee will not be seen in a lane, if there aren't any plants or zombies in its vicinity. The frisbee first appears in Day 4.
The third gimmick is the rain. The rainstorm is very light, but it isn't heavy enough to ruin the homeowner's picnic. The raindrops give a slight damage boost to any attacking plants for a short amount of time, until the rain clears up. The rain can also slow down a zombie's walking speed. Flying zombies are immune to the raindrops' effect, and will simply avoid them. When the rainstorm stops, the damage boosts for the plants wear off, and the zombies return to their normal speed. The lawn also gets a tad bit darker when this happens, but it's not dark enough to limit the player's vision. The rain first appears in Day 9.
==Description==
It's a beautiful day that is perfect for a visit to the park. The thing that's very special about this park is the inclusion of delicious, golden-brown tacos. Beware of pesky dogs, pigeons, and skunks that'll raid your lawn within the depths of the local park's forest, and ensure that the zombies are not welcome here!

==Difficulty==
Taco Park is not hard for only being the third world in the game, due to its gimmicks typically being beneficial to the player. However, some levels may have a slight increase in difficulty, when zombies such as Balloon Zombie and Park Ranger are around. Most of the zombies in this world may be weak, but they tend to come in large groups to swarm the player in later levels, especially when it comes to Pigeon Feeder summoning Zombie Pigeons. The frisbees may inadvertently damage the player's defenses as well, although this doesn't always happen. It is recommended to take note of the rain and frisbees that will help the player potentially avoid threats like the zombies that were mentioned.

*Rewards that are not money bags are unlocked for the first time completion.
=== Endless Zone===
Burning BBQ is Taco Park's Endless Zone. Like all Endless Zones, the levels will get more challenging, as the player will not know how many flags they will have. The "key" that is used to access this Endless Zone is a spatula stained with barbecue sauce. It is unlocked after completing Taco Park - Day 12. When in higher levels of the Endless Zone, frisbees will spawn less often, but the rain appears more frequently.
The starting plants for Burning BBQ include the following:
*Sunflower
*Peashooter
*Wall-nut
==Related achievements==
==Trivia== 
* Childlike giggling is heard from off-screen when the frisbee is thrown. Because of this, it can be assumed that the homeowner has kids, and took them to the park to help the player fend off the zombies with the frisbee that they have, while their parent is sheltered in the woods.
*This is the only world where the protective area for the homeowner on the left side of the lawn does not resemble a house at all. In this case, the place that acts as a replacement for the Player's House is a forest. The homeowner is using the woods as a shelter and a private picnic area.
*The lawnmowers for this world are bubble blowers placed on small wagons. When a zombie steps on it, the bubble wand will rotate and produce bubbles from it until it exits the lawn. 
**Taco Park is also the only world to have animated lawnmowers.
*Discarded tacos and some Water Balloons are scattered in various places of the lawn, while a Banana Peel is seen right next to a garbage can that needs to be put in there. Littering is not acceptable in public parks, making the banana peel's placement ironic, and the same could be said for the tacos that weren't completely eaten and the Water Balloons that aren't used.
*By the looks of it, this version of Taco Park was apparently Zomburbia-fied. However, it is not taken over by the zombies in the pre-2021 version of Plants vs. Zombies 3.
**It is often theorized that Rogue changed the landscape of Taco Park with his reality warping capabilities, while simultaneously damaging that respective piece of fabric in spacetime, when he fused the "main series timeline" and "alternate timeline" together in the CGI-animated cutscene for the game's prologue. However, this is unconfirmed.
*The name of the "Mean Girl" achievement is a reference to the 2004 film titled Mean Girls.
*The note obtained in Taco Park is represented as an invitation to a cookout. The piece of paper that the note was written on has a picture of a PvZ2-styled Basic Zombie's head on it, and the note is also stained with barbecue sauce.
*It is immediately apparent that every zombie who was encountered at the Player's House has a genderbent counterpart in this world. Blueskirt Zombie's almanac entry even lampshades this.
*Blover is currently not available in Plants vs. Zombies: Wrath Of Rogue, so a combination of Bramble Bush and a weaker plant (such as Peashooter) should be enough to suffice for defeating Balloon Zombies for the time being, until Blover eventually gets added to the game.
*The trophy for Taco Park is a golden Peashooter on a disc-like platform. He is wearing a pith helmet and holding a net, as butterflies surround him.
*The soundtrack for Taco Park mainly consists of bongos, an acoustic guitar, the harp, and flutes to give it a peaceful tune, which makes sense for one of the easier worlds to have this type of theme.
*Taco Park is apparently the first "breather world" in the game, as it is meant to give the player a break from the harder worlds that they may come across. However, this concept is not really prominent until the player gets farther into Adventure Mode.
