Plants vs Zombies 2: It’s About time is currently available for free for iOS devices from the App Store. The game uses microtransactions to sustain itself. There has been no word from PopCap on whether the game is making its way to Android or PC yet, which is a bit strange considering the fact that the franchise was born on the PC.

The game has a simple premise: protect your house from zombies by placing plants that murder zombies in different ways. The game’s plot revolves around Crazy Dave who uses a time machine and travels back and forth in time to find a taco. Levels depict different eras and settings, such as ancient Egypt or a pirate-themed Caribbean.
