Plants vs. Zombies: Sticker Farm

Plants vs. Zombies: Sticker Farm (often shortened to Sticker Farm, and abbreviated as PvZ:SF or SF) is a spin-off game of Plants vs. Zombies. It was released on September 23rd, 2024 and is free-to-play. This game is a farming and card collecting game where the player build their own area of land, expand it and fight other players.
This game uses an original artstyle, while somewhat similar to Kingdom of Taco, is not entirely the same.
== Story ==
The player first meets Crazy Dave, who tasked them to build a farm and defend against zombies, collecting stickers of plants that can help you. Dr. Zomboss appears and send his zombie army against you, but are defeated by the Peashooters and Sunflowers you unlocked. After defeating Dr. Zomboss, he will give in and give you his zombie-creating graves that allow you to grow your own zombie army if it means Dr. Zomboss can eat the brains of other players. The player is then sent to fight against computer-controlled opponent for a plot of land with the newly aquired zombie stickers. After defeating them, the game opens up for the player to explore, defeating opponent and leveling up.
== Gameplay ==
There are two main parts of the gameplay.
=== Farming ===
This is the part where you unlock more and more plants and zombies. Building sticker farms in your base that allows you to gain resources, mainly Plant and Zombie Stickers that you need to use in the battle aspect of the game. Growing the farm doesn't just give you the stickers, you can also gain money by completing request of other people by providing them with your plants and zombies, and you can also build a Science Lab in later levels that allows you to craft plants and zombies with stickers you farmed. Farm takes up spaces, and you have to battle CPU opponent in singleplayer mode to gain more lands and resources as well as leveling up, which gives you more type of area to explore and more stickers to collect.
=== Battle ===
It plays like a turn based version of Tower Defense PvZ. You place down plants with sun that you get each turn and send zombies to the opponent side, then battle phase happens and zombies will advance while plants attack, repeating until zombies invade one of the house. If a zombie encounter a plant, they will attack each turn as well. You can only carry a limited amount of stickers and if both side defended until they ran out of zombie stickers, the winner will be determined by who gets higher points by destroying plants, with higher health plants giving more points. You can only select a certain number of types of different plants and zombies in one battle, while Terrain type plants like Lily Pad will not count towards that number, ensuring you always have the right counter to the environment.
=== Shiny ===
By collecting your farms, you have a small chance to get a Shiny Sticker. They serves no gameplay differences but you can use them in battle to showcase them, giving more play time for the player if they want to collect them all.
