This Penny's quest focuses on the Seedium plant Iceweed and was offered between between December 28, 2022 and January 4, 2023.

Iceweed is a member of the Winter-Mint family.
Costs 150 Sun. ( -25 Sun at levels 3, 7 and 9)
Iceweed does 10 damage to zombies who walk over it. (+5 per level)
Iceweed chills zombies who walk over it - zombies have 50% less movement.
When given plant food, Iceweed creates a saw-blade which does 190 damage. (+125 per level)
This saw-blade will push zombies to the back of the lawn.
After the saw-blade, Iceweed will be empowered. Empowered Iceweed does 2x damage to zombies.

Commentary:
It appears someone in development got a little too much eggnog and decided to take Spikeweed and Spikerock and make a Winter-Mint version of them.

Bottom Line:
This is Spikeweed in normal mode and Spikreock in empowered mode - both with a chill effect - all for only an extra 25 Sun. There is a lot to like here. A plant that has few zombie enemies. A plant which can extinguish zombie flames. A plant which screams to be planted on the right side of the lawn. There are not a lot of plants which prefer the right side of the lawn.

This plant also has a natural symmetry with the Nuts: Wall-Nut, Endurian, or any high health plant. Iceweed's chill effect means more damage to the zombies. Two (2) columns of Iceweed does the same damage as three (3) columns of Spikeweed. Not a lot of zombies can take that walk and devour a Wall-Nut.

I do not get a preview of Penny's Pursuit before it is released. So what you see is what players will get.

I also try to vary the strategies from week to week and showcasing different plants and strategies and ideas. Using the same strategy week after week would be boring to see.

As always, if you appreciate these videos, learned something from them, please subscribe. This incentives me to continue making these videos.
