Plants vs. Zombies!!!

At first, I really enjoyed playing the game because you could plan and strategize how to plant flowers and peashooters to kill the zombies. While the theme itself is a little childish, I think everyone could enjoy the game simply because everyone can create their own strategy. Plus, online games are generally geared towards kids and they would be more likely to enjoy the idea of killing zombies!! I also noticed how as the game progressed, different cards were introduced that allowed the user to incorporate new plants and strategies. Every level unlocked a new card which was an incentive to finish the current level (and probably why I played for over an hour). After completing a few levels, there was an interlude from "Crazy Dave" who may have provided some comedic relief (to children) and explained new situations or cards. I thought these interludes were actually distracting because they didn't add anything to the game that the user needed to know and did not provide any real plot. Overall, I guess the game was pretty addicting even though it was meant for a younger audience.
