Plants vs. Zombies: Seeds of Shadow

Plants vs. Zombies: Seeds of Shadow (abbreviated as PvZSS, or, alternatively, PvZSoS) is a role-playing game released by PopCap Games and a spin-off from the main series games.
== Plot ==
The player begins as a Seedling, who is given three optional quests to determine if they sprout and become Green Shadow, Solar Flare, or Spudow. The quests also serve as a way to teach the player the mechanics of the game, and when completed, the player receives their first Plant: a Peashooter if Green Shadow, a Sunflower if Solar Flare, or a Potato Mine if Spudow. After their character is determined and they are familiar with the game, the game begins, following a non-linear story made up of quests. Upon completion of the main story quests, the player also gains the ability to play as Super Brainz, The Smash, or Impfinity, gaining a Super-Fan, Gargantuar, or a Infini-Clone, respectively.
== Gameplay ==
The game follows a typical top-down RPG style, with players controlling a small hero avatar and navigating between various locations while completing quests from a dropdown Quest Board. During their journey, players are also challenged to collect as many Plants as possible, as defeating a Plant in battle gains seeds for it and when you have enough seeds for it, you can create it. Plants also gain experience in battle, allowing them to level up and become stronger, and some plants can evolve when they reach a certain level and/or are given a certain amount of seeds.
=== Battles ===
Both players can have up to 5 Plants/Zombies in their party, automatically sending out the Plant/Zombie in their first slot at the beginning of a match. Players can only use Plants if they are a Plant Hero or Zombies if they are a Zombie Hero. Battles are turn-based, with players selecting one of their Plant/Zombie's two moves. All Plant moves cost Sun, which different Plants have different amounts of, and Zombie moves cost Brains, which function identically. Plant attacks and Zombie attacks can be differentiated by whether they deal physical or magical damage, or whether they calculate damage using their Attack and Defense or their Special stats. Plants/Zombies also have Traits, which add in different effects to the battle that usually help themselves or their team. 
Plants and Zombies fall into five types on each side: Cavalrose, Infantree, Artilleafy, Markmango, and Nuclover for the plants, and Mental, Unseen, Steely, Monstrous, and Explosive. Every type deals double damage to a type and takes double damage from another. Plant matchups are:
* Cavalrose is strong against Infantree and Monstrous but weak to Nuclover and Mental
* Infantree is strong against Markmango and Unseen but weak to Cavalrose and Steely
* Markmango is strong against Artilleafy and Explosive but weak to Infantree and Monstrous
* Artilleafy is strong against Nuclover and Mental but weak to Markmango and Unseen
* Nuclover is strong against Cavalrose and Steely but weak to Artilleafy and Explosive
Zombie matchups are:
* Steely is strong against Infantree and Monstrous but weak to Nuclover and Mental
* Monstrous is strong against Markmango and Unseen but weak to Cavalrose and Steely
* Unseen is strong against Artilleafy and Explosive but weak to Infantree and Monstrous
* Explosive is strong against Nuclover and Mental but weak to Markmango and Unseen
* Mental is strong against Cavalrose and Steely but weak to Artilleafy and Explosive
Each hero also specializes in two types, meaning moves they use of those types do 1.5x damage. Green Shadow specializes in Artilleafy and Markmango, Solar Flare specializes in Nuclover and Infantree, Spudow specializes in Cavalrose and Infantree, Super Brainz specializes in Mental and Unseen, The Smash specializes in Monstrous and Steely, and Impfinity specializes in Explosive and Unseen.
