Plants vs Zombies: Seeds Showdown

Plants vs Zombies: Seeds Showdown is a tower defense game released on February 30th, 2023. The game takes place in an alternate universe between Plants vs Zombies 1 and Plants vs Zombies 2.
== Plot ==
The game takes place in an alternate universe between Plants vs Zombies 1 and Plants vs Zombies 2. Where zombies didn't make peace with crazy dave after the events of Plants vs Zombies 1. Eventually, The zombies won, eating Crazy Dave's brain along with the other zombie survivors around the world. Eventually, cabbage-pult decides that the zombies are still dangerous and they could start zombifying plants. So he tries to gather all the plants again to stop the zombies.
== Gameplay ==
Although the game is a tower defense just like its predecesors, the game has a lot of major changes to the traditional formula. You can only place one plant of each type of plant (There are exceptions). To balance this however, you can move all the plants freely around the map, also, if a plant is eaten/crushed by a zombie, the plant will be no longer available during the entirety of the adventure mode. (Except for the plants that can have duplicates on the lawn). However, if the player does not wish this, they can restart the level to be able to use the plant. However if a plant that is important to the plot dies the level will end automatically and it will count as a game over. You can use all the plants you have unlocked in a single level, to make the interface much better the seed bank is usually hidden, tapping in the button in the upper left corner will expand the section showing the icons of the worlds, clicking/tapping on an icon will expand the section to show the plants of the respective world, clicking the same icon again will hide the section so you can see the garden better. If a zombie gets to the other side of the lawn they will become a general zombie, which will generate mass amounts of different zombies (depending on the world) and then they all will go to the right on an attempt to eat all the plants, the game ends if there are no plants left in the lawn.
=== Other gameplay changes ===
Althrough each sun equals to 50 sun like in Plants vs Zombies 2, the levels are longer just like in Plants vs Zombies 1. Plant Food returns from Plants vs Zombies 2, however, it is more destructive and much more uncommon, as it will only be given in determined points of the game. Shrooms are back to sleeping during the day, althrough they will last 20 seconds awake before starting to sleep, just like in the first game, you can wake them up with a Coffee Bean. They are also awake in dark areas such as caves or buildings.
==Gamemodes==
===Adventure===
The main game mode, complete levels one by one and progress in the worlds while you unlock new plants to use in other game modes. The only game mode where a plant dies permanently.
===Last Stand===
Survive 10 flags of zombies planning your defenses before the attack without using sun producers and just 5000 sun, you will get 225 sun after each completed wave, in this game mode you can actually place more than one of each plant and there is one last stand level for every world.
===Co-Op ===
The only conveyor levels in the game, the player 1 plays with the mouse while the player 2 plays with the arrows or WASD, there are 2 conveyor belts (One for each player) And each player can only move their plants. Also you can have 2 plants of each at the same time instead of just one. (One for each player) There is one level of these for each world.
===Boss Arena===
In this mode, the player will have to defeat all the bosses in the game one by one, going in the order they appear (Except the Zombot Sharktronic Sub) after each boss you will actually keep the plants from the previous boss in the lawn. If the player loses, they will have to try all over again from the Zombot Sandy Lizard. Upon starting the mode the game will choose between The Jungle lawn, The Garden - Level 1 lawn, Arid Canyon - Levels 3, 4, 7 and 8 lawn, Gloomy Gallons - Levels 5 and 10 lawn, Zombie Plastics.Inc - Level 12 lawn, Dark Moorland - Levels 10, 11 and 12 lawn, Star Hill - Levels 10, 11 and 12 lawn, Lost City - Levels 6 and 9 lawn or Star Shrine - Levels 1 and 10 lawn. Althrough these lawns are merely esthetic and do not affect the gameplay.
===Versus Mode===
The versus mode from the Plants vs Zombies 2 chinese version (The old one before it was ruined) to make a quick summary you can only choose 6 plants, the level is divided in 3 rounds, in the first round you can only use the first 2 plants, in the second you can use 4, and in the third you can use them all, each player can use only three lanes instead of the normal 5, to win you need to send zombies to your opponent and deplete all their health by making the zombies get to the end of the lawn, you can choose 6 zombies and each zombie has their sun cost, much like the plants, in the first round you can only use the first 2 zombies, in the second round you can use the first 4 and in the last lawn you can use all of them. You can spend extra sun to give the zombies a health boost or a speed boost, or both. Unlike in the chinese version of Plants vs Zombies 2, the roster of zombies will be much more varied in each match and there are no plants banned, there are, however, some banned zombies. These are: All the bosses, Cement mixer Zombie, Recycle bin Zombie, Cavalry Zombie, Wizard Zombie, Imp Porter, Relic hunter Zombie, Glitter Zombie, Perfume Zombie, Skeleton Zombie, and all the water zombies. You can't use plant food and unlike in the PvZ 2 chinese version the sun isn't generated automatically and you have to actually set up your sun producers, it is also one of the few modes where you can actually place more than once of each plant.
=== Level Creator ===
Create your own level and fill it with the zombies, plants and mechanics you want! You can make the selection of plants locked and loaded for example, and there are also some exclusive gimmicks for this levels, such as acid rain, or houses the plants or zombies can claim. Just like in the chinese version of Plants vs Zombies 2 you can then submit your level for people to play it, you can choose the difficulty between one jalapeno to five so the players have an idea of how hard the level is. And also Scaredy-Shroom can be used in this gamemode, being the only game mode where you can use him.

== Trivia == 
#It's the first tower defense plants vs zombies game where peashooter isn't the first plant unlocked.
#It's the first tower defense plants vs zombies game to not feature chomper.
#Unlike it's predecesors, the lawn mowers are completely absent in the game, this is because there isn't an actual house the player has to protect.
#Rotobaga is red rather than purple in this game, being the second time a plant's color is radically changed between games, the first time being in Plants vs Zombies 2 with Spikeweed.
