Ancient Egypt - Day 15 is the 15th level of Ancient Egypt in Plants vs. Zombies 2. It is a Save Our Seeds level. This is the first Save Our Seeds level of Ancient Egypt, as well as the intended first of the game. To complete this level, the player must defend his or her house from the zombies as well as the three endangered Sunflowers, all located at the fifth column. When this level is finished for the first time, the player gets an Ancient Egypt piñata.

Dialogue

(Crazy Dave appears)

Crazy Dave: There's a plant call on the banana phone. It's an S.O.S.!

Penny: They'll be sitting plants if we don't help. Let's take that root and save them!

Difficulty

This is the first Save Our Seeds level in Ancient Egypt as well as the intended first in the game. The player must prevent the zombies from eating the endangered Sunflowers. These can produce more sun for the player, allowing for more plants to be planted down early on. However, a lot of battle-hardened zombies such as Buckethead Mummy and Pharaoh Zombie, appear on this level. This level is very difficult if the player does not plant any defensive or powerful plants.

Waves

The small number next to the zombie icon means that zombie will always appear in that lane, with 1 being the topmost lane and 5 being the bottommost lane.

Strategies

Strategy 1

  • Required plants:
  • Plant Wall-nuts in front of the Sunflowers quickly at the start of the level.
  • When Camel Zombies arrive, plant two Bloomerangs.
  • Do not forget the Pharaoh Zombies too. Plant Bonk Choys behind your Wall-nuts.
  • Use Snow Peas or Winter Melons (if you have either) to slow down the zombies advancing towards your Sunflowers. If you do not have either, you can use the Iceberg Lettuce.
  • The endangered Sunflowers also produce sun, meaning you can set up your defense quicker. This is helpful against Pharaoh Zombies, Buckethead Mummies, and Camel Zombies.

Using premium plants (Contains premium content)

This level may be a bit hard. Using powerful premium plants is beneficial but not necessary. You can use Squash to deal with the Pharaoh Zombies. Use Jalapeno to destroy a whole lane that is charging towards the endangered plant. Use Pea-nut along with Wall-nut to block the zombies from eating the endangered plant. Kiwibeast can be used here for a similar purpose, providing more offensive power in exchange for toughness. You can also use Imitater on Pea-nut or Squash if you want. Power Lily and Snow Pea can be of great use here. If you have it, Sweet Potato is also a good idea if planted between the three Sunflowers. Escape Root can prove to be very helpful, as it can move the endangered plants further back, allowing you some breathing room.
