Plants vs Zombies is a classic pop cap title recently reduced to $1.

The aim of the game is to survive a horde of zombies trying to invade your lawn. Using plants you develop an army to help you take out the zombies. Each level sends over an increasing amount of zombies, some more stronger than others. The adventure mode offers over 50 levels to play through. Varying from night, day, a swimming pool and much more.

Controls are nicely integrated, you pick up plants and tap where you want them to go on the lawn depending on the grid. After that the plants shoot for themselves, its all about strategically placing them down. As you play the game sunshine coins drop from the sky and as you click them these generate points for you to buy more plants to implement into battle. The graphics are decent and have a nice cartoon appeal to them. Though the app has yet to be updated to iPhone 5 resolution which is a bit of a con.
