Bloons TD 6 Review

Ah, Bloons TD 6 ($4.99) is out now, and it’s pleasant to dive back into this series every few years or so. I like a superior tower defence game from time to time, and while I don’t play the Bloons games that frequently, it’s always pleasant to dive back into Bloons TD.

Mostly, because the whole thing happens so much in this game. Other titles are slower, less disorganized. Bloons TD 6 is chaos, willing to fling continuous hordes of creeps at you, with complicated upgrade systems and dozens of units at you. If you like effortlessness and proficient design,

this isn’t the game for you! If you like engorging on content, upholding upgrade trees for dozens of units, and watching your screen plug up with enemies all the time, this is ideal for you!

The rules of Bloons TD 6 are normal tower defence fare. Creeps tour along the path, and you have to play towers in fixed positions with convinced target radii to obliterate them, without getting rid of all your lives.

Where Bloons TD 6 mixes things up is through having dozens of towers, every with their upgrade trees, and also some fun units to participate with that don’t fit the normal tower defence archetype.

The plane and helicopters can beat sure parts of the board, and you can locate paths and formations for them! Towers of diverse types come into play, and positive objectives necessitate you to use just those towers, so you want to study everything the game has to present.

Visually, Bloons TD 6 mixes 3D monkey overlooks with 2D levels and bloons that come in. Due to the top-down vision, it works pretty well, and the monkeys are lively well enough that they look flat when the game’s going at a fast rate.

Many of the enemies just mark visual variations to discriminate between them, such as colours for diverse power bloons, and decorations to illustrate that they’re camo, but there’s so much on-screen that you’ll have to reimburse close attention to which is which.

And really, everything gets so busy with activities that you’ll have to tell in more universal cues what’s on-screen and what isn’t. If nothing’s dying, you have difficulty.

Every monkey tower has three upgrade paths, with later paths unlocked by earning more familiarity for them by using the tower more. You can only have upgraded from two paths, and only one path can go to stage three or higher.

This denotes that you can have towers of a similar base type, but with violently diverse effects. And you will require many of these variations to do well, mainly as the bloons come in diverse kinds like ceramic, lead, and camo, which frequently want specialized upgrades to obliterate.

Additionally, the game now comprises her units, with four accessible at first. These units mechanically promote themselves, so you don’t have to be anxious so much about them, and you can only call one of them on the battlefield.

Still, their diverse attacks can offer an obliging boost to your favoured attacking style, whether you like sending arrows at enemies or dropping explosives.

The game comprises 20 levels at launch, but as per preceding Bloons TD titles, anticipate more in later updates. Every level has rewards for beating it on Easy, Medium, and Hard, and then there are diverse objectives after that to throw you off.

For instance, you might have to beat a height with only a convinced class of monkey tower, or deal with stronger enemies, or invalidate paths, and so on. You obtain money for every time you complete one of these objectives, so there are reasons to play beyond individual challenge and completionism.

Though, there is a lot here if you love just thrashing down and trying to beat each solitary piece of content in the game.
