Details
acts like a , but automatically revives itself for increasing amounts of sun.
Upon landing or dying, consumes 50 + 25*(Number of previous revivals) Sun to remain on the tile of the landing spot/revive. If this fails, 50 Sun is refunded.
Pros
- Two-role efficiency — Sun production and offense from a single plant slot reduces placement demands.
- Compounding value — Total sun generated over a full run multiplies its effective worth beyond its sun cost.
- Garden funding — Enables additional high-cost fusions that would otherwise be out of reach.
Cons
- Exposure risk — 300 requires aggressive front-plant protection to prevent losing its sun production pipeline.
- High-value target — Zombie pathing may prioritize it, requiring active defensive management.
- Combat secondary — 1800 (Squash) is a bonus; never the primary damage source in the lane.
1
Plant Sun Squash in one of the rear two columns (7 or 8) at the very start of the level — the earlier it goes in, the more sun it produces across the full wave sequence.
2
Never let Sun Squash be the closest plant to an approaching zombie — always maintain at least two occupied columns between it and the zombie front.
3
The sun Sun Squash produces should fund your next two to three most expensive plant purchases; plan your upgrade path around its expected income.
4
In levels where sun income is already substantial, a second copy of Sun Squash can be placed in a different lane for doubled economic output.
