Besides that, it's a great free game, you don't really need to spend any money to enjoy/beat it I played it when it first came out and while fun, the freemium aspects were annoying and forced (like making certain popular plants from the first game purchase only). It's had a couple of updates since then and I know they toned down or got rid of some of the freemium aspects so I've been meaning to check it out again. Even so, I beat most of the main game but I didn't spend any money on it because of how annoyed I was with the way they implemented the freemium parts. I would have gladly plunked down $15 for a completely unlocked version or even paid $5 per episode ($15 total) but the way they did it just pissed me off (can you tell? lol).

You can get by without spending any money and I actually prefer it that way since the stuff you can spend money on (besides the plants) is pretty OP (those 3 powers). It's more challenging this way. You can still buy the plant food or whatever (green leaf thing that gives them special powers) for about 1k gold which you can earn in-game at a steady rate. You rarely ever need it though. I actually like the freemium model because it allows for growth. It gives the developers incentive ($$$) to push out new content. It's the same for this game. If it was buy-to-play, we would get a bunch of content from the get-go and that's it. Nothing new once you're done playing that. Only updates would be bug fixes, not content. However, with this model, devs can listen to suggestions, implement new features, and most importantly, push out new content that keeps the game fresh.

I play a few matches of the current arena, but don't have the patience to grind it anymore. Any suggestions on another mobile game? I played Blood Battalion for a while when it first came out, but the energy recharge time is ridiculous. I like RPGs/TBS
