Data push 2026-05-10

There was a new data push today. The changes are:

  • Penny's Pursuit first-clear rewards have been doubled and the Zomboss fight cooldown has been halved to 6 hours.

  • A bunch of texts related to Thorn Whip have been changed

Before:

    "PRODUCT_THORNWHIP_DESCRIPTION",
    "Razor sharp thorns deal damage when attacking, and being attacked.",
    "THORNWHIP_DESCRIPTION",
    "{KEYWORD}Stun: {STAT}Can stun zombies while attacking them.\n{KEYWORD}Collateral damage: {STAT}Deals damage to zombies that attack it.\n{FLAVOR}Thorn Whip is not interested in small talk. Especially with zombies. Cuts straight to the chase, it believes in ‘the bigger they are, the harder they fall’, but not just size of the enemy, but also quantity. It makes sure to ‘return the favor’ to any zombie that attacks it, in kind.",
    "THORNWHIP_DESCRIPTION_HEADER",
    "Whips zombies with it’s barbed tentacles and deals damage to any zombie who venture to eat it.",
    "THORNWHIP_DESCRIPTION_HINT",
    "Thorn Whip is a master of crowd control.\n",
    "THORNWHIP_DESCRIPTION_PLANTFOOD",
    "{KEYWORD}Plant Food: {STAT}Smashes the lawn in front of it, damaging and displacing zombies away from it in fear.",
    "THORNWHIP_TOOLTIP",
    "Deals and returns damage when attacked.",

Now:

    "PRODUCT_THORNWHIP_DESCRIPTION",
    "Stay back… or pay the price.",
    "THORNWHIP_DESCRIPTION",
    "{KEYWORD}Whip Strike: {STAT}Whips all zombies  in front of it within its reach using thorny vines, dealing damage with a chance to stun them in place.\n{KEYWORD}Thorn Guard: {STAT}Zombies that attack Thorn Whip at close range take additional damage from its thorns.\n{FLAVOR}Thorn Whip doesn’t just fight back,  it lashes out. Its vines snap across the lane, striking multiple zombies at once and locking them in place. And for those bold enough to get close? Every bite comes with consequences. Sharp ones.",
    "THORNWHIP_DESCRIPTION_HEADER",
    "Whips all zombies in front with its thorny vines, stunning them and damaging zombies that venture to eat it.",
    "THORNWHIP_DESCRIPTION_HINT",
    "Place Thorn Whip where zombies cluster to maximize its multi-target strikes and control.",
    "THORNWHIP_DESCRIPTION_PLANTFOOD",
    "{KEYWORD}Plant Food: {STAT}Unleashes a flurry of whipping strikes, damaging zombies and knocking surviving ones into adjacent lanes.",
    "THORNWHIP_TOOLTIP",
    "Deals damage and returns damage when attacked.",
  • The Almanac description of Volt Snapdragon has changed. Before:

      "{FLAVOR}Volt Snapdragon doesn’t overwhelm its enemies instantly — it escalates. A steady hum builds into a crackling roar as its Thunder Beam grows hotter and brighter. The longer a zombie survives, the worse it gets. Sparks leap outward, chaining across the horde. By the time the voltage peaks, the lawn smells faintly of ozone… and regret.",
    

Now:

    "{FLAVOR}Volt Snapdragon has always been fascinated by energy. While other Snapdragons breathe fire or frost, he prefers something a little more… electrifying. “It’s all about making a strong connection,” he says. “And maintaining it.",
  • The names of some zombies that are not in the Almanac have been defined - obviously because we'll have quests to kill them in a future Thymed event:

      "ZOMBIE_SUMMER_ARMOR1",
      "Summer Conehead Zombie",
      "ZOMBIE_SUMMER_BASIC",
      "Summer Zombie",
      "ZOMBIE_SUMMER_FLAG",
      "Summer Flag Zombie",

There was a data push today. (To version 13.1.1; version 13.0.1 is now disabled.) The only change is that they made BoomBerry unavailable in all the Zombosseum levels. Probably because the plant is very buggy in version 13.1.1, as has been reported here, and they can't fix it without releasing a new version of the game, so they have simply disabled its use in this event.

Version 13.1.1 seems to be officially available everywhere now - it appeared in the PlayStore for me today.

  • The May daily Calendar rewards have been shuffled a bit - now you get the 20-seed Blaze Leaf offers after the 10-seed ones, instead of the other way around.

  • Daily Calendar rewards for the month of June and for the ZCorp event have been defined. Upcoming Calendar Rewards

  • Epic quests with double rewards (mints, gems) have been defined around the Birthdayz event. Upcoming Epic Quests

  • Some of the missing texts have been added.

  • Some of the plants that were made rentable in the development version are no longer so: Brain Stem, Corn-fetti Popper, Devour Bloom, Hammeruit, Seashooter, Sour Shot.

  • There will be special events related to the Arena, Penny's Pursuit, and the Piñata Party (and probably the daily Travel Log) - you know, those where a green "Special event" label appears on them and some of their rewards are doubled. The schedule is:

Location From To
Arena May 18 Jun 01
Penny's Pursuit May 10 May 16
Pinata Party May 11 May 18
  • The Prospector zombie has been removed from Level 4 of the Explode-O-Vine Thymed event. Upcoming Plant-of-the-week Thymed Events

  • The seed rewards of the Piñata Parties for the periods May 11-14 and 14-18 have been doubled. The one for May 18 - June 01 has been split into two (May 18-19 and May 19 - June 01) with identical rewards, except the first ones are doubled. The rewards for the Piñata Party during the period June 06-22 have changed. Pinata Party Rewards

  • Shop offers for ads, coins, gems, and money have been defined during the periods May 17-24, May 24-31, May 31 - June 07, June 07-14, and June 08-21. There will be free offers for Pink Energy during the period May 18-31. Upcoming Offers in the Shop

Health update. Things... aren't looking good. The doctor basically admitted that at this stage my cancer is incurable and all the therapies they can offer aim only to prolong my life until the inevitable.

  • Two of the plant-of-the-week Thymed events from the upcoming version 13.1.1 have been ported to the current version: Electric Blueberry and Explode-O-Vine. They were already in the wiki.
