How to play

change

In Bloons TD 6, the player creates a defense to pop all of the enemy balloons.[7][8][9] These enemy balloons are called "Bloons", which must be destroyed by popping them with Monkeys.[7][8] Cash is spent to buy Monkeys and their upgrades.[8] Popping Bloons rewards cash to spend on more defense.[8][10][11] If the Bloons reach the exit, they will cause the player to lose lives.

Every round, Bloons are sent in waves.[12][13] Rounds become increasingly harder, as the Bloons become increasingly stronger.[12][13] Some Bloons may gain special properties, making them resistant to certain types of Monkeys.[12][13]

Monkeys can be used to create a defense that is designed to defend against the Bloons.[8] Most of the Monkeys can harm the bloons, which are capable of dealing damage.[8] Some of the Monkeys can support other Monkeys or produce extra income.[9]

Some examples of Bloons include: The Red Bloon, which can be 1-shot by every offense tower in Bloons TD 6

The Blue Bloon which when hit, turns into a Red Bloon and if hit by a projectile that does 2 damage or more, it will get 1-shot

The Green Bloon which is like the Blue Bloon, but with a green layer on top which takes 1 damage to pop, so it can be 1-shot if hit by a projectile that does 3 damage or more. There are many more Bloons to discover, but you’ll have to discover those on your own.
