Frostbite Caves

Frostbite Caves is the eighth world in Plants vs Zombies 2: It's About Time (GMXX Version). It is unlocked using the World Key from Big Wave Beach Day 8. It has a total of 29 levels, 9 plants, and 2 upgrades. It takes place in 10,000 B.C, during the ice age. After Day 8, the player receives a World Key, allowing them to unlock Castle in the Sky. The main gimmick of this world is freezing winds, which blow down lanes, chilling plants they hit. If a plant is chilled enough, it will become frozen in a block of ice, making it useless. The player can use thawing plants to unfreeze plants. Another gimmick is Slider Tiles, which will divert zombies to other lanes. The Lawnmowers in this world are beavers. The boss of this world is the Zombot Tuskmaster 10,000 B.C.

In-game Description

Explore the frozen wastes of prehistory in the year 10,000 B.C, and chill out with coolest zombies ever. Beware the winds or your plants will be frozen veggies.

Gimmicks

• Freezing Winds

Freezing Winds blow down random lanes through out the levels, chilling the plants in those lanes. If a plant is chilled 4 times, it will become frozen in an ice block, and a thawing plant must be used to get it out.

• Slider Tiles

Slider Tiles are on the lawn when a level starts, and are part of a level's design. When a zombie steps on it, they will be diverted to the lane that the zombie hand in the tile is pointing to.

Surprise Attack

The surprise attack of this world is called Snowstorm!

It is identical to the "Sandstorm!" Ambush from Ancient Egypt.

Thawing Plants

Thawing plants are used to keep plants from getting frozen, and are immune to being frozen. The Thawing Plants are:

• Hot Potato
• Pepper-pult
• Fire Pea
• Torchwood
• Snapdragon
• Fire Gourd
• Ground Cherry
• Lava Guava
• Spitfire
