Plants vs. Zombies Free Trial is a free PC version of Plants vs. Zombies. It is meant to be an advertisement for the full version of the game. The player can only play up to Level 3-4 in Adventure Mode in this version. After they finish Level 3-4, an advertisement called Upsell appears and suggests them to purchase the full version. It will automatically link the player to the way to get it. It was removed in 2010, but a similar demo replaced it. This demo has a 1 hour time limit which, once expired, the demo cannot be played. It is no longer available as the demo version, which has no time limit, has replaced it. The 1 hour version was removed from popcap's website in 2015, and was removed from Shockwave.com on January 1st 2024.
