    INCREDIBLY fun game. After playing this game for a couple hundred hours I imagine, the game still has not gone stale. The only thing I'd criticize about it is it's somewhat small unit count, and lack of new quality content. Other than that, the game is very fun and 100% worth grinding.

    This game is balls to the wall fun or something to that effect.

    There isn't much to say about this game that you probably won't see as soon as you start. The learning curve is rather decent, challenging at times but thats mostly dependent on who you challenge. Unlocking things are easy, not pay to win.

    Unlocking things are easy, not pay to win.

    People are playing this a lot, I only wait at most 45 seconds during the day and about 2 minutes at night (literally after midnight).

    Towers are unlocked by winning and losing matches to gain medals which are used to buy upgrades for your owned towers (TIERS) or to unlock new towers.

    Just Download. Trust me its fun.    … Expand

    This is a very fun tower-defense game that involves a lot of thinking and strategy. While admittedly I'm not too good at the game I can still find a lot of enjoyment in it and it is incredibly fun to play with friends. My only major complaint is that the in-app purchases are too game-changing and without them you will most likely be sitting for 10 minutes watching ads just to get a tower upgraded.

    while this game is very fun, balanced and addictive, i want to report two things. first, the amount of hackers is OP and the report button does nothing. Also the leaderboards are pay2win and getting on them is hard without in-app-purchases.

    Positives:
    Plenty of Towers
    Lots of mechanics allowing a vast learning experience
    Plenty of bloon variants
    frequent updates, which always keeps the game interesting
    loads of events
    support team replies with in about 3 days, which is impressive
    nice artistic style and smooth graphics
    strong servers and limited lag

    Negatives:
    half pay-to-win (it isn't to the extent of a lot of games)
    requires a powerful device because of the various objects on the screen
    hackers can be found fairly often
    not a large community
    is a different game from the PC version, and your data cannot be exchanged between the two

    This game is an addictive strategy based Tower defense game, which excels in its genre, both the PC version and the iOS version are impressive with various features and a very positive community, the game itself, although not expansive it contains a lot more than people believe, and most incredible part is mechanics. The mechanics are mind blowing, there are soo many rules, like this does this, to this, in this situation, if this tower, is using this ability. Overall it is amazing but not perfect 8/10    … Expand

    Yeah, I know, right? Who'd have thought that an idea like this would've worked? Yet with a clever interface and a welcome twist on the classic game, BTD Battles is a modest success brought down by intrusive in-app purchases, no real way to report hackers (which are all too common), and, perhaps most critically, a lack of any substantial new content.

    Bloons TD Battles likely isn't what purist fans of the series would have asked for, but at this stage in the franchise's life it's probably time for something other than more of the same - however enjoyable the existing single-player games have been up until now. It's the classic gameplay remodeled for a different sort of audience, then, and even IAP quibbles can't take too much of the shine off the predictably outstanding gameplay to be found here.

    The downside is that online matchmaking routinely pairs inexperienced beginners with veterans.

    Problems aside, series fans should enjoy Bloons TD Battles, especially since the Assault Mode adds an extra layer of strategy. Get back to monkeying around. It’s your duty.
