Good game
Very amazing game to grind on
My favorite game in the bloons franchise.
i prefer this over btd6 even though btd6 is the better game LOL I played this a while back and I decided to revisit it before playing btd6 years after release. I preferred this game because btd6 felt like there was so much to do; and, being indecisive I really never had as much fun as i'd hoped. I'm not saying btd6 is bad, it's really good and a lot more polished than btd5. I just felt like there was a much more coherent way to play btd5; and so, I started playing btd5 first. This is how I approached btd5: when I started struggling on monkey lane, I knew that I was just inexperienced with the towers, so I started to learn them individually by choosing a monkey to main and then to build around the attacker, depending on whether it was able to survive the camo round on 24 or the leads past 28 etc, anyway so... I noticed that the bloon chipper is overpowered, genuinely overpowered, specifically the wide funnel path (4-2). I started to challenge myself a little and played impoppable without banana farms or the bloonchipper and I've got to say, it was fun. This game is a very flexible 'puzzle' game, you have to learn what works in certain situations and what doesn't work as well. Most of the towers feel fun to use, except I didn't find much use for something like the ice monkey, glue gunner or mortar. So far, I chose to progress through the beginner maps in order. The first three are pretty easy but then Alpine lake got pretty difficult, especially on impoppable without chippers or farms. I kind of loved the map though, it felt like it was made for subs, intentional or not; the 2-3 upgrade was pretty useful against the ceramics because that's what I struggled with. I bought the dart monkey building on level four because of the free dart monkeys and it really helped with the map because of the submarine's intel upgrade. Eitherway the point is, I'm having a lot of fun with the game so far and despite its issues, it's still pretty flexible at the end of the day. Give it a try if you want to take your time and get into the game, because there's a lot to do oh, and, check out bloons td6 as well because i'll probably start playing that again soon enough.
Clássic points
I mean. It's just Bloons Tower Defense. Personally I prefer the BTD 5 formula to BTD 6 since it's easier to just turn your brain off playing it while doing something else. Also don't go for all achievements on this game like I did, it turns into a sunk cost fallacy reaaal fast.
Ist noch Interressanter als BTD 6 weil es damals noch nicht so viele türme gab oder nur 2 skill richtungen gab aber das ist das was ich so liebe an BTD 5 ich Liebe etwas Ältere spiele und spiele sie so oft wie man sich das vorstellen kann
This game carried my childhood
♥♥♥♥ no. Had to organise with a friend for him to sit with the game in the background so I could do all of the co-op achievements. Other than that, it is Bloons. I can't even say 6 spoiled me, I played this game after Monkey City. I might just be tired of this franchise at this point.
