Plants vs. Zombies [iTunes Link] has been refreshed for the summer with a new content update. The game by Popcap now includes a new layer of time management gameplay seen in freemium titles. In the so-called Zen Garden you can grow your favourite plants to obtain coins, which can be used in Crazy Dave's shop to improve your defences. Instead of simply selling the seeds, you have to water fully grown plants until they start dropping coins.

The game mechanics involve frequent app launches to check wether a plant needs some Bug Spray or Fertiliser—something like a Tamagotchi, but also collecting all the plant varieties— similar to Pocket Frogs. It also adds re-playability to the main tower defence game since once finished the adventure mode, seeds for the Zen Garden are obtained as rewards.
In addition to this, Plants vs. Zombies also includes 6 new mini-games available on Crazy Dave's shop, like a zombie aquarium, which their own Game Center achievements.
