Dinsun Expert Review
Our Expert Score
Bloons TD 6 is the gold standard for the tower defense genre. What makes it so compelling is the sheer breadth of strategic depth available. With 25 monkey towers, each boasting three distinct upgrade paths and massive 'Paragon' evolutions, the combinations are virtually endless. Whether you're a casual player looking to pop some balloons or a hardcore strategist micro-managing Hero abilities, there is a rewarding curve here that few games can match.
Ninja Kiwi's commitment to the title is evident in the constant stream of updates, new maps, and seasonal events. The 4-player co-op mode adds a chaotic layer of fun, while the offline single-player mode ensures you can play anywhere. It’s a vibrant, polished, and incredibly deep experience that remains the king of the genre years after its initial release. If you own a mobile device and enjoy strategy, this is a non-negotiable download.

Real Strategy, Endless Fun
Sat Aug 09 2025 odingoesI have been playing Bloons for about two years now, and the game has always been a ton of fun to play. The gameplay is all about strategy and it’s a lot of fun to earn Monkey Money to unlock heroes and stuff. Over time, I’ve definitely improved a lot in this game, and I currently have 4 paragons unlocked. I’ve definitely learned that it’s better to upgrade existing towers than purchase more basic ones (quality over quantity). The map editor is also very fun, and unlocking it is definitely worth it. The co-op features are also very fun, but I recommend playing with the “anywhere” map split to optimize gameplay. My only complaints are of the account system: if you delete and redownload the app, you have to restart the game from the beginning which is really slow and aggravating. To solve this problem, take a screenshot of the “start” screen and if you need to log in again, defer to the “user ID” in the bottom corner of the screenshot. Late game, the game will often crash and kick you out, but you can solve this by going to settings during a game and turning the accessibility rendering settings to 0%. While you can buy Monkey Money with real money, I don’t recommend it as it can be glitchy and a waste of money. I still consider this game not a pay to win, even though you can buy ingame Money, because it doesn’t directly enhance the function of the game. Overall, I love this game for being almost entirely strategy based and a great way to pass time. Have fun!
Ninja Kiwi please read everything I have good ideas
Tue Aug 31 2021 jhguyfyufufigTo “Xxkylexx63xX” this is wrong, you must have bad internet or a bad device that you are using it only takes me 40 seconds to do these “in-app updates”. Past this line is for ninja kiwi. You should make it so that you don't need an account for all of that stuff because theres a glitch for mobile where you cant make an account so please fix it if you won’t make some of the account needed stuff to not be account needed stuff. Your game is really good and I hope you work on more paragon monkeys because I have millions of xp for my monkeys and I really want to use it for my monkeys. A good idea for more upgrades to monkeys is to make different types of paragon monkeys like you can choose the main type and stuff (this doesn't effect the power just change in looks) like middle bottom top or top bottom middle (this would still be 5-5-5 Monkeys) it would be really cool and I hope you do more updates to your game because its a really good game, I also suggest making it so that when your in sandbox mode you get all upgrades for free and also you can get paragon monkeys in it too because it would make it more of a sandbox mode you should make it so that there is no cap to money and lives on sandbox mode. I also suggest that you should lower the cost for heroes because they take too long to grind and especially when you keep loosing and maybe you can like do some really stupid stuff to the game every April Fools like make it low resolution or make it really crappy or like really funny.
What a perfect game
Sun Dec 29 2024 Ripping CigsBloons TD6 is, without a doubt, one of the most enthralling and meticulously crafted games I’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing. From the very moment I launched the game, its vibrant and whimsical art style captivated my attention, but what truly kept me engaged was the sheer depth and complexity of its gameplay. This isn’t just a casual tower defense game—it’s a symphony of strategy, foresight, and adaptability that constantly challenges your ability to make precise decisions under pressure. The sheer variety of towers, each with three unique upgrade paths, allows for an incredible level of customization, while the addition of heroes—each with their own distinct abilities and playstyles—adds a layer of strategic nuance that I didn’t even realize I craved. What’s even more remarkable is how every single map feels like its own puzzle, with layouts ranging from deceptively simple to mind-bendingly intricate, ensuring no two games ever feel the same. And let’s not forget the satisfaction of watching hordes of Bloons burst in a cascade of vibrant animations and sound effects—it’s a sensory delight that never gets old. On top of all this, the developers have gone above and beyond with regular updates, introducing new content and challenges to keep the experience fresh and exhilarating. For someone like me, who thrives on games that are both mentally stimulating and immensely fun, Bloons TD6 isn’t just a game—it’s an obsession.
Best Game Ninja Kiwi has ever made!
Mon Jun 18 2018 Rusher0715Ok, so I’m gonna try to not emphasize all that I like about this game, because it is so amazing. First, when I loaded in the game the first part was the graphics that I really liked. I don’t play BTD5 but play BTD Battles, and I think it is a huge leap for graphics, Especially for the flying monkeys, they rock around and the ace actually has a nice animation of launching when deployed. And it shows a much better difference when you upgrade stuff and I think there is a change in shape or color for every upgrade you do, which is amazing. The animations are just very good overall. So the favorite mode to me is sandbox, you get to explore everything and test everything out and stuff, and it is great how ninja kiwi balance all this stuff. I just have one slight suggestion, to buff banana farms by a little. In my opinion banana farms take too long to pay themselves back and I do not think it is very officiant, I like villages much better since it give you more money per pop. And also please be kind of more precise in the description of the upgrades. Like for super monkey the dark legend of the night just says when hope is all gone, we turn to him. It is a nice refer to one of my favorite movies, the Batman, but I suggest to put what it actually does somewhere near, for example it summons a portal that transfers balloons away from the exit. Overall, I think this is the best paid game on the market right now, besides my other favorite paid game which is don’t starve.
Best in my opinion!!!
Fri May 10 2019 Potato496Honestly, I thought before getting this game that it would be a waste of money, but I decided to try it because it seemed better according to reviews at 4.8 compared to BTD5’s 4.7. Once I tried it out, I immediately loved it. I loved the two new towers, I love how you can pick your own towers instead of just getting what the game says you get, I loved the heroes, I loved the new maps and I loved the different obstacles which blocked tower sight which poses an interesting challenge. I love the new tier 4 and 5 sacrifice system for the first path of super monkey and, while on the topic, I love all the new upgrades and the tier 5 upgrades. Once I got to level 30 I immediately fell in love with the monkey knowledge system, although I do kind of miss the lab system from BTD5. Now my suggestion. It’s not a massive game changer, in fact it doesn’t really affect the actual gameplay at all, just the sandbox, but I would really like it if you could somehow test the banana farm upgrades in sandbox. Whenever I use the banana farm enough to get a new upgrade for it, the descriptions aren’t really that specific on what the new upgrade does. I would love it if you could be able to test the banana farms different upgrades to see what they did, just because the only way to test banana farms (or any turn based upgrade for that matter) is to get far enough in a certain game to be able to buy the upgrade and test it out which, honestly, is a little time consuming. Other than that I love this game so much. Keep up the good work!
Legendary game, one major bug
Tue Mar 12 2019 Ryan the epic gamerI love the game to death. It is not too addictive to not be able to put down, and not unaddictive to the point it isn’t fun. The gameplay is so amazing and there is simply no game that is comparable for wasting time in boring classes at school since my school blocks data. The catch? Out of nowhere, i can’t play it. It’s heart breaking. I have tried reinstalling the app twice, offloading and redownloading three times, I have tried in different WiFi connections and tried using data in various areas. No matter what I do it loads up and immediately gets stuck on the loading screen “Unleashing Monkey Sun God... Failed - downloading” permanently. I have tried to let it load for a full two hours while I was doing other things and came back to nothing new. Just the same screen as before. I dont have a clue what caused it. I am using the IPad Pro first generation which is overkill for running a game designed for the much less powerful phones. I have twenty gigabytes of storage available for the game to use. The game has only started today which rules out an update as the cause since i downloaded the pat fusty update two days ago. Please fix this bug. I am so bored in my classes without this game. Don’t let this bug bring such an amazing part of the series to the ground. Update: I emailed support and the issue was resolved by the end of the night. I had to clear all data in the game’s cache files before uninstalling and reinstalling. To anyone else with this issue, you will lose your progress if you dont have an account, a backup, or Game Center.
Best tower defense
Wed Mar 18 2020 That really good gamerThis game may seem like it is for kids but it really is a lot of fun and is worth the charge. The only thing that I recommend adding is a slingshot monkey that could turn into an AA gun or adding another boat that could have multiple mobiles on it that could turn into a battleship and/ or could have AA guns on it. Just a thought though for a later update that could be called operation sky defense. Another monkey that could be added is a rifleman monkey now that might sound like the sniper but it is not. The rifle monkey would start with a musket like gun then path one would be to add a bayonet witch could do damage to balloons at close range then to add a smoke screen after every fire making the balloons slow down for a little and then add in two more monkeys and having the option to fire in sync or at will. Path two would be to creep getting a gun upgrade getting more and more modern. Path three would be getting more and more explosive with the second upgrade being grenadines and then an RPG and then a grenade launcher. The last monkey I want to recommend is what I call the swipe monkey this monkey would hold a bat or mallet and could do damage at close range. The monkey could have nails in its bat or it could start to rotate in a circle hitting every thing every time. These are just thoughts though and they don’t have to be added I just think that it would be really cool if you did. Oh one last thing and I have no idea how to upgrade this one but if you just have a century gun and could upgrade that you could have a metal storm at the end or an AA gun.
A great addition to the series
Mon Jul 16 2018 Coolops3This game is tons of fun, and lives up to its previous titles excellently. The updated graphics look awesome, while not damaging the core gameplay. The new monkeys are fun and interesting, quickly becoming some of my most used. The new branching upgrades add a brand new tactical element that was much less present in BTD5. Gameplay-wise, this is the perfect sequel. There are a few minor issues, though. I feel like Monkey Money is extremely underused. Reserving it only for powers seems like lost potential, especially when compared to the agent and building system in BTD5. The upgrade tree, while making up for those missing elements somewhat, seems very random and a bit all over the place. A few things can be done to fix this. One, you can add some more generic upgrades to the system to organize it, like having upgrades pertaining to each individual tower. For example, you could have a few upgrades that will increase the attack speed or popping power of the Alchemist. Then, along that path, you could add the special upgrades already in the game, like the Longer Transformations or the longer lasting acid pools. This creates a problem though, dude to the way you earn knowledge points. This can be fixed by allowing players to purchase knowledge points with monkey money. This both adds more use to monkey money along with supporting a more fleshed out upgrade system. Overall, this game is still tons of fun, and I will be playing it more nonetheless, despite the minor grievances.
