Pepper-mint Plains

Pepper-mint Plains is the 1st area in Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for the Ele-Mints released in the 1.0.0 update of the game, bringing new fire-related zombies and plants, and the return of Burning Metal, Fire Peashooter, Gas Can Zombie and other characters from the previous PvZ games.
Pepper-mint Plains is located in the northeast corner of the map, above Fila-mint Factory and to the right of Enchant-mint Forrest. It is a mostly flat area with the only building being the players house and Zomboss's machine.
The main stage element of this area is burnt tiles. Burnt tiles are tiles that cannot be planted on, but hurt zombies that walk on them. They can be removed with Waturnip, and created by Burning Metal. Some levels come with burnt tiles already created for an extra challenge.
The area starts with 25 days, but when the bigger map is found, it has 15 levels added.
==Game description==
The fiery flatlands of the Pepper-mint plains will surely heat you up! Burnt tiles will halt your planting, and Dr. Zomboss will stop your advancement through the world (Or at least he'll try).
== Basic Zombies ==
==Order of events==
If the player already beat the tutorial, then they can unlock Pepper-mint Plains.
At the start of Day 1, a Singed Zombie walks over the Iceberg Lettuce, setting it off, but it isn't frozen. Crazy Dave goes on to explain Power-mint and ghoul families, and how Aqua-mint plants do more damage to En-ghoulf Family zombies and Winter-mint Family plants don't do anything to them.
On Day 3, there is a Burning Metal pre-planted. A Flammable Zombie walks in the lane. When the Burning Metal hits it, it starts on fire, and begins running. Crazy Dave tells you to quickly play a peashooter to kill the zombie. Once it's killed, he explains that Flammable Zombies are lit on fire and become faster after being hit by a Pepper-mint plant.
Day 7 starts with Crazy Dave introducing Aguacado, and says that it's an Aqua-mint plant, so it will do more damage to the zombies here.

===Difficulty===
Being the first world of the game, Pepper-mint Plains isn't very difficult. The zombies are relatively weak, and the burnt tiles can be remedied easily.

== Brain Busters ==
==== Scorched Lawn ====
Scorched Lawn starts off with all of the tiles being burnt tiles, and giving you Waturnips and other plants to help you defeat the zombies that round on a conveyor-belt.
====Special Delivery====
Main article: Special Delivery
Special Delivery is an exclusive Brain Buster without any criterion to fulfill in order to achieve victory. Much like the Gargantuar battles, the plants provided to the player are given via conveyor-belt and must survive a set of waves.
====Locked and Loaded====
Main article: Locked and Loaded
Locked and Loaded makes the player restricted to the plants that they will use. They are only required to use the plants given to them in order to win the battle. Even though the plant is locked yet, they can get a tendency to use that plant (unless it is unlocked already). This will serve as a demo for that plant if ever that manages to happen. The player must win only using the given plants to them. Locked and Loaded serves as a reference for a certain weapon in real life, where once it is armed, it should not be disarmed any more.
====Last Stand====
Main article: Last Stand
The player must survive a flag in order to accomplish the level. In this Brain Buster, the player is given a limited amount of sun to make use of and two or four Plant Foods at their disposal because there will be no glowing zombies and falling suns to replenish sun for plant production to aid the player from a victory. Sunflower, Sun-shroom, Sun Bean and Twin Sunflower are not allowed in this Brain Buster, but other than these four, there are other plants as well that are not allowed. Followed by that, the player will deal then with an extreme number of zombies charging at their lawn. If the player is very creative enough to formulate his or her own plan, they can win without the aid of Plant Food.
====Save Our Seeds====
Main Article: Save Our Seeds
In this Brain Buster, the player is forced to survive the wave of zombies and protect the endangered plants, otherwise, they will fail the level.

==Trivia==
*Although Pepper-mint Plains is based on a hot place, you can get both Amphibean and Waturnip.
*Even though you use Iceberg Lettuce, you don't get it in this area.
