Bloom Valley is under attack

A garden tower defense with rust on its boots

Baron Smog wants to pave Bloom Valley into a parking lot, and he has sent an army of scrapyard robots to do it. The last living garden is holding the line, and you are in charge.

Plant sprouts in the beds, collect dew and keep the junkbots away from the greenhouse. Acorn Popper shoots, Stumpy takes the hits, Frostmint chills, Pine Mortar lobs over walls and Beam Tulip burns a whole lane with one ray.

Battle on the sunny meadow

What is new for the genre

Five things you will not find on other lawns

  1. Merging

    Plant the same sprout on top of one and it grows to level 2, then level 3. Spread wide or grow strong: your call.

  2. Nectar

    One golden drop sets off any sprout’s super move. A Dewbell pours six drops, a Mendleaf heals the whole lawn.

  3. Weather

    Rain makes robots rust and slow down, fog rolls in at night, and lightning strikes the robots. Now and then it stuns a sprout too.

  4. Hedgehogs

    They wait on the last line. Anything that breaks through meets a hedgehog curled into a ball and rolling down the lane.

  5. Good neighbours

    Sunroot speeds up the sprouts around it, Mendleaf heals them, and Rustmoss makes robot armour brittle.

The Herbarium

Who fights for the garden, and who against it

  • Dewbell A bellflower that drips dew. More dewbells, richer garden.
  • Acorn Popper A brave acorn that spits acorns down its lane.
  • Stumpy An old stump that holds robots back. Prickly at level 3.
  • Frostmint Icy mint leaves slow machines to half speed.
  • Pine Mortar Lobs pine cones over shields with a splash.
  • Beam Tulip Gathers light and fires a beam down the lane.
  • Sunroot Warms its neighbours: plants around it act faster.
  • Mendleaf Heals the plants around it.
  • Rustmoss Its drizzle rusts armour so it takes double damage.
  • Fluffbloom Its seeds home in on the nearest robot and hit flyers too.
  • Honeyhive Sends bees over three lanes, flyers included.
  • Snaptrap Hides in the soil, arms itself and snaps on the first robot.

Five worlds, fifty levels

From a sunny meadow to the Great Furnace

  1. 1

    Sunny Meadow

    Your first beds and your first tin cans. Learn to spend dew before the Mow Titan comes for the lawn.

    Boss: Mow Titan

  2. 2

    Moonlit Grove

    Night falls, dew comes down half as often and fog creeps in. Something is tunnelling under the roots.

    Boss: Drillworm

  3. 3

    Rusty Scrapyard

    Heaps of junk block the lanes and the robots get bigger. Baron Smog arrives in person, on legs.

    Boss: Smogwalker

  4. 4

    Singing Swamp

    Hummocks sink to the beat of a song, and your sprouts go under with them unless you read the rhythm.

    Boss: Bog Organ

  5. 5

    Smog Factory

    Conveyor belts shift your sprouts, pipes puff smog, and the Baron waits in the last room.

    Boss: Great Furnace

Looking for a game like Plants vs Zombies?

Love Plants vs Zombies? Meet the robots

If Plants vs Zombies is your kind of game, you already know how this works: plant in lanes, collect what falls, hold the line until the last wave. Plants vs Robots keeps that lawn-defense feeling and changes what happens on the lawn.

Sprouts merge and level up, a golden drop of nectar sets off super moves, weather changes the fight, and the swamp and the factory rearrange the field while you play. The enemies wear kettles and saucepans instead of cones and buckets, and the whole thing runs in a browser tab.

Plants vs Robots is an independent game with its own characters, art and levels. It is not a Plants vs Zombies game, mod or remake.
