Ancient Egypt (神秘埃及; pinyin: Shenmi Aiji; translation: Mysterious Egypt) is the first world in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies. There are 15 levels in this world, 10 plants to make use of, and 12 zombies to fight against.
This world's gimmick are tombstones. They can't be planted on, absorb 800 damage per shot, and block straight shooting plants' projectiles. A Grave Buster can instantly destroy a tombstone.
Back to 2500 B.C., fight against the zombies covered in toilet paper rolls. To save this ancient and mysterious civilisation from the zombies, are you ready for it?
In Chinese: 前往公元前2500年,在埃及与裹着卷筒纸的僵尸们对抗。 从僵尸的手中拯救这个古老又神秘的文明,你准备好了吗?

In this Brain Buster, the player was forced to survive the wave of zombies and protect the endangered Sunflowers. Otherwise, they will fail the level. Since the 1.8 update, there are no Save Our Seeds levels in Ancient Egypt.
Locked and Loaded restricts the player to plants that are given within the level. They are only required to use the plants given to them in order to win the battle. Even though certain plants are locked, they have the ability to use that plant.
Mummy Memory is Ancient Egypt's exclusive Brain Buster. In this Brain Buster, they will tap two ceramic signs to reveal the symbols. If the player manages to get the two similar symbols (e.g. two skulls), the zombie will immediately die. However, if they pick different ceramic signs with different symbol appearing (e.g. a skull and a cone), the sign will flip again.
Last Stand makes a return once again. Just like its previous game, the player can start the onslaught and survive five consecutive waves. However, in this game, the player has to survive one flag only with extreme numbers of Zombies storming the Player's lawn and most likely will attack violently with Sandstorms. The player is provided with great amount of sun and Plant Food as there are no zombies that will carry a Plant Food in order to aid the player from winning. Sun producing plants and free plants are not allowed in this Brain Buster.

Previously, the tombstones disappeared then appear again after the player had chosen the plants. After an update, the tombstones then did not appear from the start but they only appeared after the player have chosen the plants. This was later fixed and now, tombstones appear right from the start and do not disappear after the player have chosen the plants.
Since the 1.8 update, it and Sky City are the only worlds in the game which have no Save Our Seeds levels.
This is one of the two worlds in the game that does not have 24 levels, the other being Modern Day. In this case, it has 15 levels, making it the world with the least number of levels in the game.
