Plants Vs. Zombies Vs. DSiWare In This Week's Nintendo Download
By Dr. Eleanor Vance | Published on January 01, 0001
Spring is right around the corner, a time when the sun is shining, the flowers blooming, and the undead hordes are hungry for your brains. What perfect timing for the DSiWare version of Plants Vs. Zombies. It’s a rather light week for the Nintendo Download, both literally and figuratively. WiiWare only scores one new release – the light-based puzzler aptly named Liight – with a demo version of Digital Leisure’s Mix Superstar rounding out the console-based offerings this week.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); DSiWare is jumping, however, with the release of PopCap’s popular defense game Plants Vs. Zombies making its downloadable debut on the handheld. The downloadable version looks pretty similar to the DS version available at retail, only without multiplayer or the $19.99 price tag.
Also on DSiWare this week, a Mahjong title and Agetec’s puzzle platformer Rabi Laby, which is about a young girl and her rabbit companion and has nothing to do with a Rabid Labia, though that’s what I see every time I look at the title. The words, not an actual Rabid Labia.
I’ll just shut up now.

from escaping. Together they will explore and discover things unlike anything they’ve ever seen before. They must work as a team to find the key and escape each area of the mighty labyrinth.

5 in 1 Mahjong Publisher: cerasus.media Players: 1 ESRB Rating: E (Everyone) Price: 200 Nintendo DSi Points Description: Play Standard mahjong without all the bells and whistles. You can choose from more than 300 layouts or try different variations of the game. In “Countdown,” you only have 20 minutes to clear the tiles. With “Remember,” you can train your memory as every tile is only briefly visible. Don’t dally in “Shuffle” mode – the board will rebuild itself if you don’t make a match in time. In “Match” you simply need to search for particular tiles. The tile images are strikingly sharp, 
making them easy to recognize. Choose your favorite tile design, plus enjoy the great soundtrack and high-quality animation that create an authentic gaming experience. Challenge yourself with a range of difficult layouts. If you are stuck, hints will help you out.
