Plants Vs. Zombies

I have never heard of this game, so I just started out by googling it and to my surprise it came up right away. I started to play it. I didn't see an option to read any directions but I assume if I would have looked around a little more I would have found it. I decided to chance it and just start to play, and in my opinion, it was extremely easy to catch onto. Basically, you did not want the zombies to eat your plants. In the first round, a few of my plants were eaten, but then after that only a few throughout all the levels I played were. I was a little confused to the point of the game, because at one point, a zombie ate a plant of mine but then got killed by the lawnmower? I am guessing that if you keep letting zombies by eventually you lose?

The game was easy to play and like most other people, I found it sort of addicting. I didn't want to stop playing, except my computer was going to die, so I had to.

The creators of the game did a good job characterizing the good vs. bad people. All the good 'people' , such as the sunflowers or the pea-shooters were as cute as they could be in an online computer game and the zombies were as scary and gross as they could be in order to portray the bad people.

I can't see myself playing this anytime soon since you have to play it after your 60 minute trial runs out, and if I were to continue playing it, I could see it being a big distraction to my homework.
