Plants Vs Zombies!
The older I get the less time (and desire) I seem to play super immersive games. Sure, I’ll always pick up the new Mario, Resident Evil or Zelda, but overall, I just don’t (can’t?) invest my time in them anymore.
Well, on a whim I picked up Plants Vs. Zombies a couple years ago and I’ve become more and more obsessed with “Pick up and play” games than ever before. Sure, I’ve always liked Tetris, Super Puzzle Fighter, Dr. Mario and other puzzle/quick spurt play games, but this was the first game I played where there was a story/levels and still had the strategy like my favorite puzzle games. Because of my obsession, I found myself looking for more pick up and play games, and I’ve found myself using my iPod touch as my primary gaming device!
Craziness.
Anyways, I love this game! It’s super fun, addicting, the graphics are great, the game play is challenging, and it has ruined my life. Not really. (But kinda really)
