This is a sub-page of Plants vs. Zombies Heroes.
|
To do:
|
Unused Graphics#
Buddy System textures#
Textures for the unused Buddy System card. Also comes equipped with a full animation alongside it.
Early Three-Nut#
An earlier design for the Three-Nut plant, being much simpler in design.
Old Teleportation Zombie#
|
|
To do: |
An earlier version of the Teleportation Zombie, looking far more Star Trek-inspired. May have been changed to avoid legal issues.
Unused Animations#
Plants#
Early Shamrocket#
An earlier animation for the Shamrocket card, using a completely different design. (click to animate if frozen)
Go-Nuts Animation#
An earlier animation for Go-Nuts, complete with some confetti! (click to animate if frozen)
Sunflower Seed Death#
An unused death animation for the Sunflower Seed. (click to animate if frozen)
Zombies#
Old Area 22#
An earlier version of Area 22 being played on the field, with a different design. (click to animate if frozen)
Unwanted Gifts#
An early animation for the Unexpected Gifts, back when it was called Unwanted Gifts. (click to animate if frozen)
Overshoot Animations#
|
|
To do: |
Via the use of the Disco Dance Floor and Moon Base Z cards, the player is capable of giving every zombie in the game the Overshoot trait. These can make zombies use animations that are found nowhere else.
Strangely, a few Plants also have Overshoot animations, despite the Overshoot trait being exclusive to zombies.
Unused Tribes#
There are references to an Onion tribe in the game, likely intended for the plant Onion Rings. Likely scrapped due to how few plants based on onions are in the game.
Unused Cards#
There are several unused cards in the game, with some being more complete than others.
Plants#

Card text |
Notes |

Resistant Radish |
None |
A 6-cost 4/6 that gives all plants on the field +2 attack |
Whack-a-Zombie |
None |
A 5-cost Kabloom Trick that deals five damage to a zombie selected. A card with the same name managed to get into the final game, though with different mechanics. Shares ability with Sun Strike. |
Hypnotize |
Deal 3 damage to a Plant or the Plant Hero |
Despite what the card text says, it actually does 3 damage to a Zombie or Zombie Hero. According to the files, it was considered a Superpower card. |
Health-Nut |
None |
5-cost 6/6 with no ability. A card also named Health-Nut did make it to the final game as an event card, but was completely different. |
Gloom-Shroom |
CHARACTER REMOVED |
8-cost 8/8 which did 3 damage to all zombies when played. Was later changed into a 5-cost 5/4 with "When played: Do 1 damage to Zombies here. Mushroom Evolution: Deal 3 damage instead." Gloom-shroom did appear in the final game via an update, though again, was slightly different. |

3-cost 6/6. Once again shares a name with a plant who did appear in the final game, though much different. |

5-cost 3/6. And of course, it shares the name with a completely different card in the final game. |
Mega-heal |
Heal a Plant to full, It gets +5 health |
Finally, a card that doesn't share it's name with an existing card! It was Wall-Knight's original signature superpower, before getting replaced (due to it being incredibly unbalanced) with Uncrackable. |
