Chinese Version

Hello. I have played the first few levels of PvZWar Chinese version on my Android phone. Just like other Chinese PvZ games there are many differences from the international version.

• Just like other Chinese games, The animations of plants and zombies are choppier.
• The only music of this game is the theme of America (Grasswalk), and it only contains first 8 seconds of it. Again, typical for any Chinese game. There is a rumor that iOS version contain more songs (albeit at a lower bitrate).
• The map screen has lots of buttons with Chinese text in it. I can't read Chinese, but at least one of them just crash the game instantly.
• You unlock Peashooter, Sunflower, and Wall-nut for free but any other plants require you to collect 10 Puzzle Pieces. I don't know how to collect additional pieces though, though I sometimes randomly receive them during the gameplay or after beating a level, so you can probably unlock a plant by doing a lot of grinding (at least for now).
• The only Power-up is Nuclear Cucumber which costs 25 gems to use, and this Power-up will insta-kill all zombies on the screen.
• Speaking of gems, you receive 100 free gems for free at the beginning of level 1-5, which demonstrates how to use the Cuke (and forces you to use 25 gems, of course).
• The shop screen has many Chinese plants and PvZ2 plants such as White Radish and Laser Bean. Most of them are available for purchase with gems but some are available for coins.
• Reportedly, Cherry Bomb is the only plant that absolutely requires real money. All other plants require significant amount of grinding, though.
• I encountered Spider Devil Zombie, a china exclusive zombie, in level 1-7. She does what she did in Plants vs. Zombies: Journey to the West... binding your plants with cobwebs. I think you can use Blover or Bunker Leaf to counter her attack but since I have neither of them, and I ran out of gems, I'm stuck.
• I think you can buy gems for real Chinese money if you live in China, but since I don't live in China, the gem purchase screen just shows error message.

I found that the top-left button in the map screen is daily lottery which you can play once per day. So far I got only 1000 coins from it, but there may be better rewards if you are lucky. Also, there are 3 locked gates in the America map, all of which require 5 keys to unlock. At the end of the locked path there are bunch of coins, a mystery box, and Bonus Seed Slot upgrade. I haven't seen any keys in levels yet, so I don't know what these levels play like.Omg2090 (talk) 04:01, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

Turns out that the daily lottery does give you keys for Brain Busters. I accumulated 5 America key and unlocked the path for Bonus Seed Slot upgrade. (the path available after Level 1-6, the others are 1-1 path for coins and 1-3 path for a mystery box) The Brain Buster I unlocked was Save Our Seeds, which you must protect the endangered plants from the undead insanity; if a engendered plant dies, you die too. In Save Our Seeds I, there are five endangered Sunflowers in the middle of the lawn and you must protect all of them from Spider Devils and Gargs. Obviously I died even before the first wave.

After a lot of grinding, I have now unlocked Ghost Pepper who is immune to Spider Devil Zombies. After 10 or so attempts I have finally beaten Level 1-7 (with all mowers lost, of course). I still cannot beat Save Our Seeds I because of Gargs, though. In Level 1-8 I encountered a new threat called Big Hand Zombie, who have a very large hand and uses his hand to grab a nearby zombie and throws it 4 tiles ahead, including Spider Devils and Gargs! I'm keep getting killed during the second wave (It is a 4 flag level) so I'm stuck again...Omg2090 (talk) 08:55, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
