Dark Ages

Dark Ages is the sixth world in Plants vs Zombies 2: It's About Time (GMXX Version). It is unlocked using the World Key from Far Future Day 8. It has a total of 29 levels, 9 plants, and 2 upgrades. It takes place in 948, where a plague has swept the area and dangerous zombies lurk. After Day 8, The Player receives a World Key, allowing them to unlock Big Wave Beach. The world is night, meaning sun doesn't fall from the sky, and mushrooms can be used without the Coffee Bean. It's gimmick is tombstones, which mostly function the same way they do in Ancient Egypt. The Lawnmowers are modeled after guillotines. The boss of this world is the Zombot Dark Dragon.
