Plants vs Zombies vs WordBrain
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.
WordBrain
WordBrain is a rather intriguing form of word game mainly because unlike most word-finders, this game is very specific as to which words it wants you to find. Getting the wrong words is not at all rewarding. Not to mention, the grid of letters from which you'll be finding your "hidden words" is quite a fickle little puzzle in its own. This is because the effect of gravity applies to the grid. So, if you remove the bottom tile, for instance, the upper tiles will naturally fall downward. This may sound like not a biggie but this drastically changes how the letter tiles are arranged and how you can link up your second word. Thankfully, if you encounter a difficult level, you can always use hints or get a friend to help out.WordBrain is possibly one of the biggest non-competitive word games out there that's actually a puzzle. The game is available in 15 different languages with over 700 levels per language. Sounds like the perfect evening pastime for you? Well, you can download WordBrain for free on both Android and iOS.
