Plants vs Zombies vs Pockie Defense
Plants vs Zombies
Plants vs Zombies is a whimsical tower defense game that places you in a unique position, mainly by planting a wide variety of plants on your lawn, to counter the advancing horde of zombies that are about to invade your home. You'll gradually expand your troop of potted plants as you progress to increasingly challenging levels and you'll need to adapt to the game as its situation changes, such as defending against the horde on your roof or at night. The coins you've earned from playing levels can then be spent at Crazy Dave's shop which he ran from the back of his van. There's even a mini-game of sorts where you can plant and harvest a variety of items, including coins, in your own garden.Proclaimed as being one of the modern classic tower defense games, Plants vs Zombies (PvZ) set a high bar for other similar TD games to follow and from what we can see, only a handful (Kingdom Rush, for example) managed to make it to a similar level of popularity as PvZ has enjoyed. PopCap Games has even followed up PvZ's huge success with exciting sequels (only on mobile though) and equally-entertaining spin-offs, like the PvZ: Garden Warefare game which diversified the entire franchise by delving into the competitive shooter genre.
Pockie Defense
Pockie Defense is yet another unique tower defense game that is has a rather different fairytale theme. In this game, you are given the heavy duty of defending Fairy Tale lands from the evil Witch and her minions but don't worry - you will not do the whole "You shall not pass" sequence alone! Instead, you get to recruit a wide variety of fairy tale heroes and heroines to aid you. These characters are literally your "towers" in this game and they can be upgraded permanently by consuming other lesser heroes. Most interestingly, you can even challenge other players to a fun PvP fight where only a selection of your heroes will go up against an equal number of opponents sent from the other side.That said, being a free-to-play game does make Pockie Defense a bit skewed towards the pay-to-win side, but if you ask us, the game is still amazingly fun to play and is worth the time you spend on it especially if you enjoy tower defense games.
