  • If you can’t buy BTD6...

    This has been my favorite bloon game since the day it came out on flash. Sure it has its issues, annoying ads, capturing land becomes a chore... no actually that’s all the complaints I have. This game adds so many layers of complexity by having you use a limited amount of towers AND restricting some of those towers to change up your strategy for every game. Contested Territory is the highlight of this game, you get upgrades in the main game and put your monkeys to the test against others. I really hope Ninja Kiwi one day makes a sequel to this game with BTD6 towers and upgrades, it would be awesome!

    (Some ideas for BMC2: New rewards from CT like insta monkeys. Unlocking heroes from special terrain. More special terrain missions in general. 1 or 2 more Boss Bloons. Basically just put BTD6 into this format)

  • Outstanding

    There are some ads, but not many at all and this is a free game so it makes sense. NinjaKiwi is a great company and playing their games has made me happy. I’ve seen some reviews where people are saying that you have to pay to get more tiles because it’s impossible. To those people, try it again. You can progress in a different direction or maybe use a different strategy. But I wouldn’t recommend quitting this game.

  • Good but needs a few quality of life updates

    This is an amazing game but there is just one small thing that could be improved add a confirmation checkbox when you tap the finish with Bloonstones button because if you accidentally tap it you have just wasted a lot of stones other than that it is a great game
  • It’s OK. Not Great (especially for Ninja Kiwi)

    Love this dev as their other Bloons games are great. Monkey City is an attempt at something different, which kind of works and kind of doesn’t.

    The concept is good, attacking bloon levels to seize land and build a Monkey City, filled with units and upgrades necessary to advance.

    Big limitations, IMO, are the repetitive nature of gameplay, lack of depth, and frustrations due to the weird difficulty scaling.

    As you have to seize each individual tile by tower defense style attacking bloons, and there’s a finite combination of bloons/maps available, you end up playing the same levels a lot to advance.

    Lack of depth is in the relatively meager amount of customization you can do on your city. Even BTD6 offers several skins for characters in-game, but buildings in Monkey City come in one flavor only. It’d been neat to be able to customize your city’s look further than the game allows.

    As for difficulty, maps range from almost tediously boring to absolutely impossible (at times optimistically described as “medium” by the game itself). Some levels are seemingly designed to force players to spend “bloonstones” (the ingame, premium currency) for added powers, otherwise seem undefeatable.

    It’s not terrible. It’s a good time-waster while social distancing. The concept is good, but the execution isn’t quite what I’d hope for from Ninja Kiwi.

  • Must-have bloons game, but one recommendation and a glitch.

    Amazing game! Takes a little long to start up and get quests done, well some quests like toughen up, and I won’t say anything about the ads since it’s free and your company needs money, but I love it I love it all its amazing but I have one request, either update or make a remake or sequel to this and or btd battles with btd6 graphics! It would make 2020 and maybe even this decade, amazing! Not forcing anything but would be amazing. I actually have a suggestion. Since you have paid stuff in bloons tower defense six I believe you should cut down on ads in this game or just have them skip an hour instead of 15 minutes. And to add onto that it’s a gift you can get by doing a riddle from the altar of the sun you could get a chance to get a gift like 4500 money or a money multiplier for a week or the 1 hour skip thing. And if you do make a BMC 2 or update this BMC then I would want it to be 3D! BUUUUUUUTTTTTTTTT there’s a glitch where it says my farms are full when they aren’t. Please fix this!

  • Definitely Gold

    This is the BEST city building game I have ever played, I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun bloon busting city building game. I have been playing Ninja Kiwi’s BTD Battles for over a year now, and if you don’t already have it well download it now! It is by far the best tower defence game I have ever played. A HUGE thank you for the makers of all Ninja Kiwis games, keep up the good work.

  • Really fun game! Thanks NK!

    In BMC (Bloons Monkey City), you control a pseudo-city and to unlock land, you have to fend of balloons called ‘Bloons’. You start small, trying to get as much land as possible. Over time, you can build buildings, like Banana Farms. Each building takes space, from 1x1 to 3x3. The more tiles away from the center of the village, the more harder Bloons spawn. There’s also events like, Monkey V Monkey, Contested Territory and Boss Blimps. Hope you have enjoyed this mini-review of the game and basic guidelines of the game this review has told you!

  • Enjoyable if you can ignore the ads

    Fairly simple and fun game, if you’re into building a city and tower defense games this is a nice combination. The main objective of the game is expand your city by claiming more land by completing stages definitely a slower experience compared to other BTD games since you not only have to be a certain player level to unlock certain upgrades but need to wait extended periods of time waiting for the research to finish.

    Naturally this is where premium currency helps “solve” this issue, I will say overall you can have a fairly enjoyable experience with fair progression they offer a fair amount of premium currency as long as you’re a casual player and most the ways you earn it is actually fairly satisfying mainly completing stages using select monkeys/towers or completing the stage without allowing any balloons through.

    My real reason for dipping my review from 5 to 4 stars is the unnecessary amount of mandatory ads, especially early in the game you need to complete stages to progress and sometimes when returning to your city you get a ad... this game already has heavy monetization so the addition of ads is a slap in the face, honestly remove the ads there’s little to no reason for them.

  • All right game but

    It’s all right at first, but later game it gets dumb, it doesn’t fell anything like btd 4 or 5 as there’s always a round limit, or the game starts to cash starve you forcing you to lose, all other btd games gradually increase in difficulty and you get a certain amount of money from each bloom popped so with that you can go forever if you play it right, in this game how ether it starts to cripple you gaming rhythm by not giving you enough money to continue, so early game would be like $1 per pop but later game it would be about $0.05 per pop.
