About This Game

When an ordinary homeowner's suburban life is interrupted by an advancing zombie horde, they discover an unconventional means of survival: a collection of sentient plants and fungi capable of combat. Joined by their eccentric neighbor Crazy Dave—a purveyor of botanical weapons and supplies—the protagonist must strategically deploy their growing arsenal across five escalating waves of undead attackers, defending everything from lawn to pool to rooftop. The invasion proves to be orchestrated by Dr. Edgar George Zomboss, a mad scientist commanding the zombie legions from within a towering mechanical suit known as the Zombot. What begins as a desperate struggle for survival on the front lawn culminates in a climactic showdown against Zomboss himself, forcing the homeowner to master their botanical defenses to save their home and end the assault once and for all.
