Bloons Tower Defense 2

The Scoop: Remember how I said I really enjoyed a lot of what Bloons Tower Defense did, but I wished it just had a little more meat & depth? Well… enter the sequel!

The core game remains unchanged – you’ll place your monkey towers to destroy the waves of creeps. The hook here is the same as the first – since Bloons come stacked inside other bloons, you’ll need to have more towers spread out more evenly than in a typical tower defense game. It gives the game a good feel.

This time around, there are three difficulties to choose from. One nice detail is that the difficulty levels do more than just give you an easier/hard path layout to work with. The price of towers and tower upgrades is also adjusted, as well as the number of lives you’re given.

The sequel also adds new towers, and new types of bloons to dispatch. I found the primary new tower (Monkey Boomerang) to be pretty useless, but the addition of one-time-use tacks you can place on a stage to catch any stray bloons before they escape is a very welcome addition.

Overall, it’s a nice little sequel. More strategy and depth, more modes, more fun. It’s still not perfect – there’s no ability to fast-forward waves or save your progress – but NinjaKiwi is moving in the right direction.
