Official Press Release

More Than 300,000 Units Sold in First Nine Days; Joins Bejeweled® 2 as App Store Record-Breaker

DUBLIN, Ireland – February 25, 2010 — PopCap Games, maker of some of the world’s most popular video games, today announced that the iPhone and iPod touch adaptation of its award-winning game Plants vs. Zombies sold more than 300,000 units in its first nine days of availability, setting a new record for App Store launches. Plants vs. Zombies shot to number one in the units sold and “top grossing” App Store charts within 24 hours of its launch and remained there until yesterday. At a retail price point of US$2.99, Plants vs. Zombies for iPhone/touch has already grossed more than US$1 million.

PopCap also revealed that its flagship Bejeweled® 2 is now the first paid app to reach 3 million units on the App Store. Bejeweled 2 has consistently been in the top 10 of the App Store’s Top Grossing list. With the success of Plants vs. Zombies, PopCap now boasts 3 games (including Bejeweled and Peggle) that have reached #1 on the App Store among a crowded field of more than 150,000 apps. The company’s other iPhone games, Bookworm and Chuzzle, are consistently in the top 100 on the App Store.

Originally launched on the PC and Mac in May of 2009 to universal critical acclaim, Plants vs. Zombies has been expertly adapted for iPhone and iPod touch. Consumers who have purchased the iPhone adaptation agree, with more than 95% giving the game five out of five stars in the App Store’s rating system – making it the highest-rated product in the App Store. Plants vs. Zombies is proving to be a global phenomenon on the App Store, reaching the #1 position on the sales charts in more than 20 countries worldwide including Canada, China, Russia, Australia, Germany, Denmark, Ireland, and Norway. Within one day of the game’s launch, it joined Bejeweled 2 as one of the top five highest-grossing iPhone apps of the week.

“Plants vs. Zombies is our latest major franchise to make the jump to iPhone, and from the early customer and critical feedback it appears to be a great adaptation of the game,” said Andrew Stein, director of mobile business development at PopCap. “There’s always a concern when bringing a computer game to a mobile, pocket-sized device that something will get lost in the process, but in this case the overwhelming consensus is that Plants vs. Zombies is even more fun on the smaller touch screen!”

Plants Vs Zombies Video Review iPhone

plantsvszombies-iphone-05

Get ready to re-soil your plants in the all-new action-tower defence style game from PopCap on the Apple iPhone PLANTS Vs. ZOMBIES !! A mob of fun-loving zombies intent on eating your brains are about to invade your home, and the only thing stopping them are  49 zombie-zapping cute little plants. Use peashooters, wall-nuts, cherry bombs and much much more to stop  26 types of zombies before they can reach your front door.

Just like your cute little plants each zombie has its own special skill and ability, so you’ll need to think fast and plant faster to combat them all.  Strategy plays an important part in this game as you can’t take all 49 plants with you into battle, you need to plan and use your head before the zombies eat it, with different challenging environments such as night, day battles, creeping fog and a swimming pool to name just a few,  there’s never a dull moment in this zombie infested neighbourhood !! So are you ready to dig in ??

plantsvszombies-iphone-06

The Zombies ARE BACK !! And this time they want BRAINS !!! .. Wait .. hang on .. don’t they always want brains ?  Well yeah they normally eat brains.  I don’t know why they couldn’t just settle for a cute little daisy or a yummy looking sunflower or even better .. A NICE BIG PLUMP Magic Mushroom OOoOOoooooo Yeeaahhh !! The horde just keep on coming.  All they want is you and your tasty grey matter.  And all that’s stopping them from accomplishing their goal is your flourishing garden of cute little plants.

Plants vs. Zombies is a highly addictive, innovative, challenging, and certainly very funny tower defence style game with so many variations and curve balls thrown in it will have you coming back for more and more and BRAIIINNSS !!!.. Opps sorry got carried away. To see what happens in the next level of the adventure and what cool plants you get to unlock or what super cool items you can purchase from your wacky nutjob of a neighbour.

plantsvszombies-iphone-04

The action does get fast and furious and you have to keep on your toes.  At the start it’s pretty tame but in the later levels you’ll be running around like a head-less zombie.. um I mean chook, trying to stop these pesky and very determined zombies from entering your house and dining on your brains.  If they do that the game ends and you can start the level again.

At your disposal you will have a total of 49 loyal and trustworthy little plants to do your bidding.   On the other side of the fence we have 26 different style of zombies, ranging from slow and dumb to moonwalking thriller style ones that dance their way through your defences if you don’t watch out.  Along the way you collect coins that can be used to upgrade your seed slots so that you can hold more seeds to use in battle against the horde and other cool extra like a pet snail.  Erm yes a pet snail.  I’ll let you guys figure out what he can do ;)

plantsvszombies-iphone-03

I could go on all day and night about Plants vs Zombies but I’ll let the video review do the rest .. sit back and enjoy the review.

Capsule Computers gives Plants Vs Zombies a 9.5 Capsule Out Of 10.

Its highly addictive, VERY VERY FUNNY, and certainly a lot of fun, graphically its pleasant on the eyes and quite easy to play with the game easing you in and teaching you how to play at a very good speed.

If you want to reign PEAS and Cherry Bombs on these poor old Zombies .. All you have to do is buy your copy of Plants vs Zombies from the iTunes Store.  Click on the link below :
