Plants vs. Zombies: Rips in Time

Plants vs. Zombies: Rips in Time is a tower defense game released by PopCap Games. The game is an indirect sequel to Plants vs. Zombies 2, featuring the same time travel gimmick and expanding on the game's story, but has not been officially referred to as Plants vs. Zombies 3.

Summary
Dr. Zomboss is back with a simple goal: eating your brains in a time where you can't defend them from being eaten! Chase him through time, and prove that you can in fact build a lawn defense at any hour in any point in history. However, be careful. Too much time travel shenanigans, and you may start rewriting history! Or perhaps it's already too late...

Game modes
Plants vs. Zombies: Rips in Time features a number of game modes to keep gameplay fresh at any given time. Fundamental features of the game are shaken up in these modes, allowing players to examine and enforce new strategies as they play through the various game modes.
 * Adventure Mode - The player progresses through a series of twenty worlds with fifteen levels apiece (except for Corruption Core, which has thirty) utilizing plants they unlock to defeat zombies. Most of the game is unlocked through this mode, including plants, mini-games, puzzles, survival levels, and Danger Rooms.
 * Mini-games - Levels that alter the gameplay from the primary Plants vs. Zombies style. Five mini-games are unlocked after the completion of every world. Beating all the mini-games in a world unlocks a new plant.
 * Puzzle Mode - Levels that test the player's mental skill, patience, and knowledge of Plants vs. Zombies. This mode is split into two separate modes, Vasebreaker and I, Zombie, and three levels of each are unlocked after the completion of each world. Beating all the puzzle levels in a world unlocks a new plant.
 * Survival Mode - The player must survive five, ten, or an endless number of flags in a specific world. Three levels of difficulty, normal, hard, and endless are unlocked after the completion of each world. Beating the normal and hard survival levels in a world unlocks a new plant.
 * Zen Garden - The player takes care of plants in a relaxing environment that allows them to earn coins. Once a plant is fully grown, it can be harvested for a free boost on any given level, or kept in the Zen Garden for either aesthetics or the option to earn more coins. The first room of the Zen Garden can hold 32 plants, but an endless number of rooms can be bought from Crazy Dave's shop.
 * Achievements - A series of achievements the player can complete to earn coins for their profile.
 * Crazy Dave's Twiddydinkies - An in-game shop that allows the player to purchase plants, upgrades, and other features that allow for advancement in the game. Unlike Plants vs. Zombies 2, the shop features no premium content.
 * Battlez - An online game-mode that allows you to battle other players around the world. It is separated into two modes: Plants vs. Plants, where two players compete to see who can build a better lawn defense, and Plants vs. Zombies, where one player plays as the plants while the other plays as the zombies. All Zen Garden boosts and Card Album upgrades are disabled during this mode.
 * Card Album - A replacement for Power Plants from Plants vs. Zombies 2, this feature allows the player to collect cards which modify a certain stat of a plant. (health, damage, sun cost, etc.) Cards can be removed from and attached to other plants at any given time, as the player sees strategically viable.

Trivia

 * This game goes back to using the format of the original Plants vs. Zombies, where levels are longer and slower, while sun is worth 25, rather than 50. Plant Food and Power Ups are still available, and so is the world map.
