Plants vs Zombies


Plants vs Zombies is another hit from PopCap Games. It's gotten good reviews and is currently the strongest selling title in PopCap's lineup. And no, they haven't created a version for Linux, what you're seeing here is the Windows version running in Wine.

I'll admit it's a fun title and the combination of whimsy and strategy hits the spot. Some of my friends have gotten addicted to it. Not really my cup of tea, though, as I found it getting a little repetitive after a while.

Getting the trial game running on Ubuntu was a breeze. I had the installer run on Wine, and that was that. However, registering the game itself to play beyond the trial period became a problem because of the hocus-pocus in the registration process.

Final summary: okay to try in Ubuntu, but you might not get it to register to the full version on Linux.
