As a Chinese, I'm amazed that foreigners are introducing these versions and are interested. But these versions are actually rubbish. If you have played in China, you will know that the in-game purchases and advertisements are more disgusting than EA!
Yeah, I noticed that the micro-transactions are really bad in some of these games. 2C is especially greedy, I saw several roulettes and a lot of PTW purchasable bundles that are simply despicable
@@SylviaYSI Those are not micro-transactions, they are forcing you to trade, otherwise you will not be allowed to play or you will have to play around 10 times to win
That's right, I'm getting sick of trash plants from "Group buy" and the Ruby Red event lately
I can't be the only one who likes Chinese version so much. I finished international version. I don't have premium plants but no levels left for me to play.
Yeah these chinese version is fucking ass, it looks like it's made by fan that just happens to be official. like seriously, it's like they don't have team whatsoever, just take a look on pvz2, it looks like if you randomly install plant mod made by community, it's nonstructured af, as if whenever they think of something they just do it without planning it
The chinese PVZ2 is not just unpolished, most of the plants have virtually no use or are outclassed by every other plant. The ENT plant(i think it's the name) is able to hold 7-8 zombies without being eaten, basically outclassinf almost every defense plant in the game. Did I mention it does damage too?
and at it's max level, it can hold off the entire horde
eh quantity over quality
Unpolished definitely, especially in terms of visuals, but honestly the balance isn't much worse than in international. After all, Pokra exists, and we've got some ridiculously terrible plants, like Hot Potato and Spring Bean.
The monkey fruit ( i forgot whats the real name ) is op, even at level 1 and can defest a gargantuar
Plus alot of the plants suffer from niche countering
As a Chinese person, I used to grind the hell out of PvZ all stars. Its really polished for a mobile and chinese game, including the fact that there wasn’t an onslaught of ads and micro-transactions. Its fun, replayable, and is on par with early-mid clash of clans. I highly recommend it for anyone who can play it
I think that ones discontinued
@@pierce7992 the final version was only discountined the other and older versions are still playable
@@orangesherbet7030 I got the game
Unrelated topic here. _Journey to the West_ is actually the most, if not 2nd most, well-known Chinese fiction in the history. There's like at least one movie adaption of it every year. It even has made influences across the entire East Asia. For example, _Dragon Ball,_ a well-known Japanese manga/anime series, was actually initially inspired by _Journey to the West._
Oh wow, I didn’t know it was that popular! I assumed it was pretty big based off of some of the stuff I’ve seen with it, but I never knew it was that big
the 1986s version is still the most popular out of the movie series that they keep rerun ever summer in my country
Is it worth a read?
@@plebulus in china, you are entitled to read it
@@plebulus the beginning is the best n there are some good part in the middle but there's a lot of "filler" where wukong just meet some guy then pray to some buddha to rescue him in a monster of the week style
There's a youtuber called "Flag Zombie" who goes in depth on how the Chinese plants and zombies works, I recommend them!
Something to clarify:
The Chinese version of Pvz2 1.0 version was released in Android because someone manage to port de iOS version.
So Popcap decided to make PopCap Shanghai to manage the game in China. Then adding custom content like its leveling system.
About that, that leveling system came up first in some of the first versions of the game (and started screwing with the audio so you can only hear a part of Ancient Egypt final wave).
Before 1.8.0., the game used the old map system of Pvz2 (the one which used the star gates and star/key collecting system) (idk why but they manage to break the main code so you don't have limits to see around the map, reaching a point so you go beyond it).
In the 1.8.0 the game changed forever. The map system changed to the lineal one, but the star system stayed.
Also, interesting to note that some China-exclusive plants like Carrotilery or Venus Fly Trap appeared in PvZ Heroes. During that time it was really exciting seeing these plants outside of China.
And guess what? The Resistant Radish also was intended to appear in Heroes, as they have a card in the files!
And Icy Currant and Tactical Cuke were both initially meant for PvZ2 (International), as they are both present in seed packet texture sheets.
PvZ was so popular in China that an incredibly famous singer/songwriter got partnered to make a music video translating “Zombies on your lawn” from the first game. It’s probably still somewhere on UA-cam, and if I find it I’ll be sure to post it.
This one? ua-cam.com/video/vRXtc7sZ7u0/v-deo.html
omg a fellow object
@Ñuts from Berserk they do still block youtube links in general
this is the main thing that ends up getting comments blocked (with links)
by default in youtube studio, this option is on by default
Comments on your channel
-Allow all comments
-Hold potentially inappropriate comments for review (this is on by default)
-Increase strictness (Experiment)
-Hold all comments for review
-Disable comments
on the info button for this it reads this
Comments that may be spam, self-promotion, gibberish and otherwise potentially inappropriate will automatically be held for review in UA-cam Studio and will only be published if you approve them.
If you want a higher level of protection for your channel, increasing strictness will increase the number of comments held for review.
this is what blocks most comments
to add to this, there also seems to be a trust system with this default option (which is the hypothesis on why comment bots steal comments in the first place, as it's thought to increase there account trust so that when they do the massive reply spam with links youtube will let them though)
then there is a second option which is to block all comment with links (or hashtags as well) for review
again in your UA-cam studio account there is a setting in the community section to block comments with links (though is off be default and is the last option so for most channels it's probably off)
the excerpt bellow
URLs sent in live chat are already blocked. If you select this option, new comments with hashtags and URLs will be held for review. This setting doesn't apply to you, moderators or approved users.
the comments do get sent, only the creator (or channel admins) will need to approve them. (though this option is off by default)
I'm so sorry this comment went on for so long
@@Artcat932 thanks 💀👍
ua-cam.com/video/vRXtc7sZ7u0/v-deo.html
one of the things i feel like people dont mention all that often either with pvz2c is that it has its own custom level creator in game that doesnt require messing with game files to work and lets you play other peoples custom levels that they built from whoever else plays the game
yeah like actually popcap, make that shit, everyone will be happy
China loves PvZ so much they have educational comics covering a lot of subjects using PvZ characters, gag comics, and more
All Stars even had a Taiwanese singer do a cover of Zombies on Your Lawn and added him to the game as a boss zombie
Yep, I have a few of those comics lying in the storage room. From what I remember about these comics is that tall-nut and walnut are brothers. Walnut goes to school. Several other plants also attend that school(including plants from Pvz 2). Torchwood is a teacher. Zombies are also featured, usually featuring the pirates and sometimes the zombies resembles the ones from Pvz jttw edition, but I haven't played Pvz 2 in a while so maybe there's zombies that look like that.
@@loojiejie7381 Some later plants are classmates while the Kungfu Zombies are featured other than zombies from the first three worlds
They added a tiawanese singer as a boss?
@@metal_pipe9764 Yeah, in PvZ: All Stars, he appears as a zombie wearing a tuxedo & playing a grand piano.
@@DABUNGINATOR who? I barely know anything about singers in general, let alone ones from Taiwan
Great video. Im actually surprised that you included actual gameplay from these games. For literal years, the only thing i knew about these games were the same few screenshot
Well, thankfully of a lot of these games are still playable nowadays (albeit barely for a few of them.) The one game that I almost didn’t get footage for was ironically PVZ 3D, and that was simply because almost nobody knew it launched lol
So this was the project?
Im hyped, the chinese versions have always interested me and having you give them a deep dive its great.
Well, I hope the video lives up to expectations! I didn’t cover every game that I could in this video, as that would’ve taken probably closer to 2 hours, but I tried to cover the games that most people might’ve heard of, but not known what they were. Hopefully I didn’t mess up too much 😅
@@SylviaYSI Understandable, pvz in China is huge and quite a bit of the games are only retextures of pvz1 or 2 with a few minor additions, another topic for a future video could be the China pvz manga, tho I think it there is less information about them
@@SylviaYSI That was a good video ngl, I didn't even knew about the first one and the 3d one, heck I now want to see what the hell is the spongebob peashooter supposed be.
(Now I want to play pvz all stars, it looks fun)
Nowadays everything that gets added to the chinese PVZ2 is unbalanced, unfinished, or in some cases both. Like, look at the "chinese content overanalyzed" series by Flag Zombie and you'll see that every plant is unfinished in some way. Several zombies and plants can break the game off of simple interactions the devs werent expecting (for example hypnotizing any exclusive zombie)
Hell, some of the exclusive plants (Icy Currant or the Rotten Red) give me the impression that a lot of the content that is added to that version is scrapped concept art or even cancelled prototypes made for the international version that they tried to put together using whatever programming skills they have.
A small correction to the leveling section: It's not a rework of the international version, it came BEFORE it. And it's also 10x grindier and unbalanced; every level gives the plant 50% increased damage and then the level 4 essentially makes the plant boosted, because it allows it to have its plant food effect when you plant it. From what i hear leveling up a plant is also an absolute nightmare, especially if you want to get it up to level 5.
And finally, you see those returning plants like Cattail, Cob Cannon or Gatling Pea? Yeah, from what i've heard the only way to get them is by spinning a roulette. And the roulette only gives you puzzle pieces for the plant, you need to win it several times. And spinning the roulette costs 100 gems. And there is a low chance of even getting it and not some other garbage.
General game balancing is a huge problem,, it’s IMPOSSIBLE to get pas lvl 24 of kingfisher world withought at least leveled plants.
Kong fu, not kingfisher lol
Scrapped concept art/a cancelled prototype for the international version is LITERALLY EXACTLY what icy currant is. It existed in the international version as a seed packet in the files. It was planned, but obviously got scrapped.
Thanks for mentioning me! I intend on eventually doing better versions of the tutorials since they were made at a time where I didn't have any screen recording software.
I honestly think it would be interesting to see the All-Stars leveling/evolution system be incorporated into conventional pvz gameplay in some way. It would be pretty cool to do stuff like peashooter -> repeater -> gatling pea in a normal pvz game, and they could get pretty creative with what the plants evolve into, maybe even having some plants evolve into existing ones with similar abilities.
Fun fact: PvZ2 in China is so popular that semi-official PvZ2 comics were made in China. EA claims they arent official, but the comics were approved by the PRC's government.
Some comics are educational and teach kids about certain topics or facts about specific things, with some containing antropomorphic animals that interact with the plants (personally I never picked up any of those types with the anthro animals, cause i found them wrong)
you mean the one where peashooter says bullshit?

Here's someone who played pvz online over the span of 2 years
I still have incredibly fond memories of that game, it was way more fun than any other pvz game I've ever played. Every mode was fun, many different plants, mechanics and unique gimmicks to maps and zombies.
And the turn based was a lot of fun despite what it looked like in the footage. Setting up your team correctly with the correct placement, making each zombie and plant target certain targets deliberately and to have the ultimates go off at the correct time. Especially when analyzing fights in order to come up with better strategies for certain stages, it made my younger self really feel like a strategist (sadly it usually turned into a slaughter with the same few plants cuz they were just the strongest of all i owned. I believe it was due to leveling that they were just better than anything else i had. And collecting plants for synergy was incredibly difficult)
Leveling system, garden, visible health bars for both zombies and plants make this game stand out to me as well as the competition with other players.
Garden, shops, pets, many different gameplay options made this game never go stale for me.
I was heartbroken when one day i couldn't find the game anymore and only today did i learn that it was discontinued...
The memory of it has long become hazy but it still pains me to never be able to play it again in order to experience the joy i did as a child
It's still playable to an extent. Only the normal mode works and even then, the normal levels don't work and would have to be modified into locked and loaded levels in order to work. I have a tutorial on my channel that shows how to set it up and it's linked in the description.

@@kg8m253due to changing "business strategies" or something
Suggestion for a possible next video:You could talk about the Chinese version of PvZ 3, there are several things to be explored in the game
Great video!
Im pretty sure this one is unofficial
If they can make Heroes and GWs officially accessible in Mainland China (without VPNs), who knows what good stuff they could add to those games, especially since the International is pretty inactive at this point.
Also, all of these games just couldn't chill out with the ads, man. And the painfully slow progression for F2Players is just another criticism that many PvZ fans tend to omit. Great vid btw!
pvzh早就可以无VPN游玩了
Fantastic video! I feel like if one day we get a full restoration of pvzO explaining the entire game would take at least 1 hour’s worth of edited video. Such a freakin’ insane game.
هل يمكن ان تعود لعبة النبتات ضد الزومبي عبر الانترنت؟
Quite the interesting project here. I’d like to see more of these actually, delving deep into these.
Well done on all the time and effort put into this!
i really hope archiving pvz social is possible, because i'd really love to play it some day despite it's many flaws
Honestly, I got this video recommended and since I love long videos, pvz and learning whatever it can offer, this was a really entertaining half of an hour, it was amazing to hear someone talking about all those strange games that I have seen before but were too deep to search for myself, I'll be down bad for another video of this sorts even if it's more lengthy than this one, loved it
All stars and 2c bring some good ideas to the table for the pvz franchise even if the implementation is a bit shoddy.
Its alot better than what pvz2 is doing now, introducing a plant that no one will use because peavine exists. Really is saddening to see
honestly pvz online looked pretty fun to me. i used to watch a video of the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum boss fight all the time thinking "i can't wait to get to this part of pvz 2!" not realizing it wasn't pvz 2. i wish i could play it though.
Great video! Keep up the good work. Can't wait for someone to make this type of video but for the fan games, because recently there are a lot of them.
I still find myself wishing I could play PVZ 2 Chinese edition a lot, but I know it's probably a nightmare to set up, as well as the obvious of not understanding Chinese, but it still looks fun!
Don't botter, it's more than littered with microtransactions that feel basically obligatory
The last time I played, it wasn't hard to setup, but I did have to fake some type of Chinese ID. I didn't hire someone to forge me a new identity, but I did use a random text generator that was specifically made to fake a Chinese ID for games.
You didn't mention it, but the Chinese Version of Plants Vs. Zombies 2 has a level maker. A full freaking fledged online level maker. It's insane the amount of content it has even if a lot of it is unposlished. I actually played and completed all the levels in PvZ 2 Chinese so if anyone has any questions, feel free to ask me.
Is it possible to get the chinese version on pc? With cheats?
@@zefix3133Talkweb has a strong grudge against using cheats, as they will ban your account for this.
speaking as a chinese here im really impressed on how much effort you spent on this video, it must be difficult for you to obtain so much info about games so old and in another language! I myself didnt even know theres so many different variety of pvz games in china
When I was younger I used to collect cards from local convenience stores of the "Plants got Wild" game mentioned at 10:35. I didn't know what game was it at all, just knowing it wasn't the actual pvz lol.
An interesting fact about plants gone wild: There are actual plushies you can buy of some of those plants, obviously they aren't official like 90% of pvz plush but it's still an interesting fact (also it's the only reason I've heard of that game before I've even watched this video)
fun fact: the Mon-Kiwi is the MonKEY king but as kiwi, the bar he throws is just... a staff. a 17,500 pound staff at that. it's called Ruyi Jingu Bang
I'd love to see you cover more of these Chinese spinoffs of pvz! I find these versions really interesting simply because of how bizarre they are. One of the funniest ones to me was pvz2 evolve. I also find it interesting that future star and super chomper were promotional plants for chinese drink products. There's even a commercial for super chomper
I just hate how china has all the exclusive content I know there’s something where they can’t rip stuff and all but have them remake it and polish bigs and have it possible in the international version with level 1 plants and I think that would make a lot of money as well I can see 2 and 3 being updated simultaneously once 3 releases as the betas show it to be so different it will be a preference 3s more casual while 2 is more traditional
This is all edited really greatly, superb job
If I’m not mistaken, I think that the world maps of PVZ Online are actually the same maps that were used in the initial release of PVZ 2. Because I remember when the game first came out, it was structured more like a maze rather than the scrolling from left to right to get to a level as it is now.
I’ve checked a couple of them, and I don’t think this is true. You can see for yourself if you compare the old International PVZ2 maps with the Online maps
Although I've not read the novel(it's monstrously long with about 100 chapters), I've heard stories of it from my parents as bedtime stories when I was small. So I've recognized some jttw characters used as references in Pvz jttw edition.
7:57, plant on the left is a reference to Nezha, the third lotus prince, a deity in Chinese mythology. He not only appears in jttw but also other ancient Chinese literature.
Plant in the right is probably a reference to Zhu Bajie. Zhu Bajie looks half human and half pig. He is one of the main characters in jttw. He is the disciple of Tang Sanzang(who is referenced at around 7:27).
Red boy imp(8:51) is a reference to red boy(obviously). He is a demon with fire based powers(not just normal fire but inextinguishable ones so really powerful). His parents are also prominent figures in the jttw novel, there's a wiki about them too so I'm not gonna delve too deep into them.
Skelton demon zombie(8:56) is a reference to Baigujing. She had a desire to eat the flesh of Tang Sanzang(which happens a lot with the demons in the novel). She has the ability to disguise herself as humans to deceive the protagonists. Her true form is usually depicted as a skeleton.
I recommend reading the wiki of these characters if you want to know more about them(and fact check my comment). The novel is also pretty neat from what I've heard. I've been wanting to read it but I've been pretty busy to find time for it. There's plenty of adaptations of the novel, films, cartoons, comics. I've seen some, they're also neat.
I may do an update if I find anymore references in this vid and sorry if I got anything wrong.
Edit: so the plant at 26:08 is most definitely a reference to Sun Wukong(also known as Monkey King). One of the main protagonists of jttw. The bar it throws at zombies is a reference to his weapon, a staff. Kinda wacky they just straight up used a monkey head, slapped some kiwi slices on it and called it a day. Yet it's oddly charming for me and I don't know why.
I'd love to see more videos like this, please cover more Chinese PvZ
PvZ Online is a favorite game of mine and I wish it would come back, and I am making mockups of how the game looked and how the world maps appeared too
The bar monkiwi is throwing is a Bo staff a comically small one
I'm seeing comments mentioning most of these were broken as all hel, but honestly, the first 3 kinda blew my socks off.
As an og pvz fan even now I'm really into all the features and add ons they had, so i would've definitely made a crazy Dave in my pantaloons if i found about them back then.
In Plants vs. Zombies 2: Online, Winter Melon isn't the only Wild West Returning Plant. Spilt Pea, Chili Bean, Lightning Reed, Tall Nut, Pea Pod and Melon Pult are also in this game but they can only be played in the Adventure Mode!
2:18 the animation on that zombie on the top right is rly rly good and expressive
the Steam Age has finally been finished about a month or two ago and the Renaissance Age will supposedly be finished soon as well
Pvz online not being preserved well was a canon event 😔
It's kinda preserved tho
I'd love to see more of this stuff!
thank you so fucking much for making this video i swear people been just glossing over this shit and acting like it’s completely normal. thank you so much i can’t express how thankful i am
I think this is the very first guy who made this kind of video I keep looking it up on UA-cam but I didn't really saw anything so thank you for making this cool pvz video.
Not only China PVZ have a big franchise for the game itself, but they even made PVZ chinese comic books from PVZ 1 to PVZ heroes, their more on education purpose too. There is also a english, malay and tamil version for it but they could only be sold in malaysia and singapore(where I live).
I remember back in like 2012 or something i visited my family in China and all the kids my age were playing PVZ. It was so big there, there even was a PVZ themed Wipeout bootleg on television
I never knew how China and PVZ has great relationship towards each other, hell they really add some bunch of cool stuff more than the PVZ we know that doesn't really had one, for all of us out there.
Im Vietnamese and it’s really big in Vietnam too, like I remember almost everyone I knew having it. All of my cousins played it on their mobiles or computers, or watching pvz related youtube videos, even my aunts and uncles had it on their phones! PvZ is huge there and I’d see it everywhere
This is an old (?) ish video, but it reminds me of earlier (before I got busy) where I was exposed to the Chinese PvZ Modding community while I was browsing bilibili with it's own user created content (particularly through one of my interests: Arknights... where they created stages similar to a tryhard/super hard event called Contingency Contract in Arknights where you get to choose enemy buffs + own unit debuffs in exchange for a higher value "risk" level -- the idea behind these modded stages is to take that same idea of letting the player pick the buffs/debuffs and clear the stage with those in mind)
That modding community seems decently strong with either self made stages (like my example above), and memes/etc of modded PvZ plants/enemies
Interesting video. I was aware of some versions, just didn’t know how many were there.
And there’s even more I could cover, too. This franchise is pretty big in China!
I hope this video gets the youtube algorithm blessing because u deserve it bro
Thank you I needed a video like this
The Future Star plant was based off of a Chinese milk company of the same name according to the PVZ wiki
Great Wall Edition and Journey to the West were actually separate games, until a certain update from GWE were it was merged with the latter game. with JttW being cancelled after.
in PVZ Online the turn based mode was required for the regular mode, you had to get stars to unlock worlds (iirc, i finished it all before they added the water world), also the town was just a glorified menu, there was a bunch of different advertisement style things you could click on (for things to purchase), and you also had to unlock certain houses the more you played, also despite how barren it looks compared to PVZ2, PVZOL was relatively popular because its the only form of PVZ2 natively playable on PC
Nice seeing you here!
Man, plants gone wild was such a good part of my childhood, I remember loving some sort of eggplant balista that evolved into a banana balista then some sort of pumpkin chariot, then a lotus flower tank and at last a sunflower tank
im a pretty new subscriber and i gotta say, youre content has been getting a lot better lately, and thats pretty cool!
How far down this rabbit hole can we reasonably go? After seeing that Moe game in a different video, I've been thinking about this question.
A well made video talking about an interesting topic
AND a JoJo pfp?
Count me in
Some of these games seem actually like super interesting to play.
It’s very nice to see Chinese spinoffs getting loved by community
Good video and also garlic field
damn i really like PVZ's all stars battle mechanic and the evolution? level up? mechanic even if this second mechanic would mostly be a pay to win (i at least thing so..) because hey its a chinese mobile game and you know how donations works in chinese mobile game (mostly)
Great video! Your channel is really underrated.
My favorite thing about all stars has to be Doomsday Shroom. Actually a really cool idea
I play chinese pvz2, and i understand the lvl 4 primal sunflower thing, in the past, i almost never allow myself high cost plants, but now, that's all i use
20:35 why does scardy shroom look so much better than what we have in pvz2 now
For real why couldn’t they just make it look like that instead of having it be ugly looking
Im not Chinese, but I’m Vietnamese and it’s really big in Vietnam too. I remember almost everyone I knew having it. All of my cousins played it on their mobiles or computers, or watching pvz related youtube videos, even my aunts and uncles had it on their phones! PvZ is huge there and I’d see it everywhere
Wow! I would really like to read the Plants vs Zombie: Journey to the West novel. Sounds like a banger!
garlic field
i still have pvz journey to the west in my phone, been playing it since 2017
garlic field, also interesting video ngl
Congrats on the 30k views man. Your new most watched video.
I remember seeing that green chomper as a kid thinking it was a sneak peak at pvz2 and after growing up I figured it was fake... now i know it was a Chinese knock off
Wait the journey to the west game has some plants from pvz 2
Dandelion, laser bean, ghost pepper, bonk choy and heros the wall but looks like wall knife the sun flower seems to be the original solar flare and the peace shooter seems to be green shadow
I've always wondered what the Chinese versions of PvZ were like, so I found this quite interesting.
I actually remember playing Great wall edition on the iphone 4 IOS (I wasn't even in China, it was just there). I barely played it, but I didn't mind it
The chinese pvz games were something so present in the internet during my childhood that now it looks like a fever dream
I can see how endless addition was the journey to the west because it included lots of it's characters as heros or zombies.
Plants got wild is real and i can confirm it was fun as fuck to play like the animations was so smooth and has a bunch of funny and badass plants
chinese pvz2 sounds like fun because of how much of a clusterfuck of features it seems to be
I have decided to comment 3 weeks later, to talk about Chinese pvz2
The new and introduced plants vs zombies (like BTD versus) has a ton of zombies, and ambush your opponents (I got a legendary from the versus)
Cattail (legendary) is so overpowered that it just shreds in a solo (same with cactus and max level primal flower) it overclasses every other class
young fly on the track🥶🥶🥶
my lawyer has advised me not to finish this joke
I remember the moustache zombies, its like a cheat you can type on your keyboard to change how the zombies looked, i never thought they made it to actually be more powerful tho
neat stuff
also, garlic field
Normal Pvz 2: “Here’s the old plants with some new ones and some cool time periods to battle in”
Chinese Pvz 2: “我们添加了十亿个植物和时间段，因为 bing chilling”
its interesting how content in these games regularly appears in PvZ1/2 mods
12:10 thats becouse pvz2 used to have 25 sun system, but this was later changed to the current system
I've been waiting for someone to make a video about these games and I didn't even know that pvz 3d existed.
And can you make a long video about all of the pvz chinese games?
I’m definitely planning on making a sequel video or two for the extra Chinese games, but I haven’t thought about doing a retrospective until now. That’s a good idea, I think I’ll do that once I finish discussing these games!
7:07 Did you just use Oasis Area Music from Kirby's Return to Dreamland?
Honestly I didn’t remember most of the Chinese PvZ games considering am a Chinese but when I saw the town I got hit by a huge wave of nostalgia because last time I saw the town I was very young also I’m pretty sure the town also gives daily rewards also I’m pretty sure I remember all stars but idk I kinda remember the cutscene but all that aside the PvZ2 Chinese version give me the most nostalgia all because of the legalized nukes aka the one that cost 15 gems also the tier system I used to scroll through all of the tier systems as a kid and it never failed to entertain me and not to mention that I still remember all of the exclusive worlds
yo you finally blew up on yt good job
0:01 i want to ask, where did you get that cool background?
I’m adding a comment for the algorithm, great video!
there's these cool things called emulators. also there's no limit to yt video length, you could've included more if you wanted
There was another PvZ game that was completely different but had the same zombies, just reskinned
The only things I remember was a few new mini games, a loading screen with the sunflower peashooter and zombie from this game with the zombie begging for mercy, there was also a flower that was 45 sun that gave sun, there was also a split pea that was a green man who farts two projectiles out of its booty, I also remember there was 2 zombonis that were a zombie taking a shower and another taking a shower in a large soup, and the jalapeño was a banana
There was some footage of the game a long time ago on YT when I was little, but now I can’t find the footage, since I didn’t know you could screen record the footage the game might be lost to time
The game had a kawaii look to it, that’s really all I can remember
I think it was called plants vs skeletons or something?
I don’t think so, besides the videos were in Chinese or Japanese
I think I know what your talking about. Is it this? ua-cam.com/video/F97KXGVfJt4/v-deo.html
