Create, upgrade, and customize your very own Bloons Monkey City in this groundbreaking blend of city building and tower defense awesomeness! UNIQUE SIMULATION + STRATEGY GAMING Take back the wilderness from the invading bloon hordes and pop your way from a modest settlement to a thriving metropolis. Attack bloon-infested territory adjacent to your city, win a short tower defense game, and add the captured territory to your city as a space on which to build. Buildings are the heart of your city, and each one has a specific purpose - individual monkey towers for battle, upgrades for those towers, farms and banks to drive your economy, power to supercharge your city, epic buildings for epic powers, and decorations to make your city more awesome. Every time you build, your city looks cooler, you increase your power potential in tower defense play, and you open up even more rewards and challenges. AMAZING DEPTH AND VARIETY All 21 of the fully awesomized and carefully balanced Bloons TD 5 towers are available within Monkey City, with completely new unlock mechanics. More than 130 buildings and decorations give you endless strategies and city design options. Explore the wilderness to find treasure tiles and uncover 11 powerful special items like the Banana Replicator and the Dark Temple Idol. Burst bloons on 55 all new tower defense maps or test your mastery on 13 wildly challenging original special missions. Either way, be ready to encounter all new bloon waves and special bloon attack patterns like Cash Starve or Fast and Furious. REINFORCE YOUR FRIENDS Connect with Facebook and Game Center friends, then help each other win and expand. Send Supply Crates back and forth for bonus starting cash. Visit friends' cities to check out their strategies and their city design skills, and while you're there root out any bloon spies to win a reward for both you and your friend. SHOW OFF YOUR SKILLS Build up the strongest lineup of monkey towers possible and compete with other players for the best score in weekly Contested Territory events.

Wild West Digger
Read full descriptionHide full description
Put on your worn leather gloves and grab your trusty pickaxe. In Wild West Digger, you are Dusty, a charismatic cowboy miner with a crooked wide-brim hat and a stubborn grin, chasing a fortune buried deep beneath the desert. Your mission is simple: dig, dig, and dig some more until you strike the mother lode. Swing your pickaxe through shifting layers of dirt, rock, and ancient sediment as you carve a vertical shaft straight into the heart of a legendary gold mine. Every strike sends dirt and stone chips flying, lantern-lit timber supports creak overhead, and rich veins of glowing gold shimmer along the walls just waiting to be uncovered. The farther down you go, the rarer and more valuable the ore becomes. FEATURES Addictive mining gameplay Master the perfect pickaxe rhythm as you chip away at the earth. Endless depth and challenge There is always another layer to break through. Each depth tier brings denser rock, and thrilling discoveries. How deep can you forge your legend? Upgrade your equipment Invest your hard-earned gold in better gear. Sharpen your pickaxe, reinforce your boots, upgrade your miner backpack, and unlock powerful tools that let you smash through harder ground, carry more ore, and dig even faster. Every upgrade pushes you deeper into the mine and closer to untold riches. Play anywhere, anytime Wild West Digger is built for mobile, so you can dig on the train, at lunch, or in the comfort of your own bunk. Simple swipe and tap controls make it instantly rewarding, while the depth of upgrades and exploration keeps you coming back for one more swing. Grab your pickaxe, straighten your crooked hat, and take the plunge. The gold of the Wild West will not mine itself.
