What Makes Bloons Monkey City Stand Out
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. Use the latest in monkey science to send player vs. player bloon attacks, then see whose defenses are the strongest and earn extra rewards for victory.
Download for free and play Bloons Monkey City now!
Pro tip: You can move your buildings when they are not upgrading or damaged – just tap and hold then move to a free captured tile!

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
The music, FIRE. The building, SO COOL. Battling against other players, WOW.
The game can get boring but most of the time it good.
Really good game, we like the artstyle, its just a really good game we recommend.
You made a wonderful game with god and his heart for a bless you and all of the editors.
When we first got this, we already love it 5 star.
Im 21 years old now. We used to play this in elementary school during computer lab. So many memories. Unfortunate its pay to win tho.
Really nice game although we wish it had more monkeys and the little banana monkeys who collect banana farms were free instead costing in real life money instead of being free like in BTD6 but overall nice game.
We like its so much because its really a challenge.
It is like td six but more long term and more thing to do.
We have loved lots of games and hated lots of games over time, we thought this game would be like how it usually goes. See it, play it, love it, hate it. But it isnt. This game is a play it and love it only. This game could use a bit more special stages, and maybe easier stages because we just got unstuck from trying to beat submarine Alliance. But out of all the games, this game along with ninja kiwis other games, we think the glory days will come back to our mind.
It is very good except for the forced ads.
Listen we love Bloons games Ive played td6 and td5 this game is good we love this game. :).
This is is genuinely a masterpiece. We would pay 60 dollars for a sequel. Please make one ninja kiwi.
Very fun spent a lot of our childhood on this game.
This game has major potential,its just that the creators dont see it and Morten towers from the sixth generation games like Druid,Alchemist and Mermonkey could provide an expansion for strategy and the Bloons could create a new bloon just like in this game and other things such as the BAD could add way longer gameplay to really give older player a challenge but heres the problem,5th tiers.our personal suggestion is try a Jurassic World Evolution style of unlocking towers and you can only get fifth tiers until you reach a certain amount of pops.#BMC2.
So we saw this on a video and it is GREAT its free to play and its made by ninja kiwi who we love their games like btd6 where there is in game purchases but they dont force you to buy them, you can just click away so this game is also kid friendly and all together its just a good game.
Super fun and free to play friendly.
We just downloaded this game last night and im already at level 8! This game is very easy on beginners only thing we dont like is how 85% of the game is just waiting buildings but overall this game is GREAT.
You need to give credit to ninja kiwi because he managed to get people to voluntarily watch adds because when your building or upgrading your buildings you can watch 1 add to take 15 mins off the timer it takes to build it but the best part is that THERES no limit to how many adds you can watch so you can keep watching adds to decrease the timer and remember ninja kiwi makes like 0.21 cents off one add but you just watch 5 adds so ninja kiwi made 1.05$ and you gotta remember a bunch of people play this game so ninja kiwi is making a killing on this game so yeah.
This game is so fun it would be awesome if they made a sequel.
Its good :) plus its FREE BUY NOW.
MONKEYS ARE FUNNY WITH BALLOONS.
This game is actually really good. We like it and honestly, we feel like the progression is really good and no, we are not one of those bots. We are a real person who actually likes this and honestly its actually really good. Please play this and not to mention you get to have the balloon chipper who doesnt like that.
This game is amazing, our favorite town building/tower defense game ever. Ive played all the games growing up and this only enhances our love for it. The game NEEDS a sequel, we would be willing to even buy the game for 10 dollars off the app store and we cant say that for a ton of games. The game grabs our attention and we have ADHD which says a lot. Every hour we spend on the game isnt wasted at all, a sequel with the graphics of BTD6 would make our year or even decade.
It's a nice city builder game mixed in with a tower defense game pretty good.
We love all of your games! But we also want a BTD7.
This game is so good to the point that we have declared ourselves going schizophrenic if we dont play this game for more than 30 minutes, 10/10 would play again:).
This game is truly a great game and honestly we wished people either heard more about it or played it more, this is truly peak tower defense entertainment! Ninja kiwi cooked on this one fr.
We Like this game but we 2 monkeys in mind, like a mermonkey with some cool upgrades like better spears or triple spear(this monkey will start with a spear and will cost 400 coins)please add.The other monkey that we want you to add is a lava monkey that will cost 450 coins and will have great upgrades like total volcano or lava wall so please add these to the game and add a Druid please.
So we just got this game today and we love it! It is so much funnnn.
So fun the mvm attacks are so fun A+ game please make Bloons games.
We like this game and we know there are ads, but for some reason we rarely, mostly because of offline mode, if not never get ads when Im typing this. We like the special things for certain max towers or just to get towers. At the point we are at All 3 special things we can battle in are impossible at our point in the game and thats ok.
Bro the broken Moab is amazing. Also we recommend This to be like 6+ because it is not violent and it is just monkeys popping Bloons and blimps and all sort of stuff. And DDTs? ADDING DDTS TO A GAME THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE DDTS. NOW THAT IS COOL. Because DDTs were not in BTD5. But in a BTD5 related game. That is just good. So yeah. Pretty much, it gets 5 stars.
Monkey monkey monkey monkey monkey monkey we can have a army of btd5 monkeys.
Ive been playing this game since 2024 and Ive loved it so much we really hope this game gets released to balloons monkey city two.
Very nestalgic played on different divice for about 2 years.
We love the game so much and Ive been playing since 2017 but Im waiting for Bloons monkey city 2. We could kinda understand why it would take so long for the 2nd monkey city cause of the heroes, unlocking upgrades, getting the buildings to unlock some upgrades, and the buildings designs. Plz try and hurry up cause we cant wait any longer for it.
We do wish that the game could get an edit on looks so it looks like the newer games. But we love that the upgrades for the monkeys and towers dont take days unlike clash of clans. Even if ninja kiwi could add more updates adding the new towers and buildings and maybe even the new heroes from the other games. And changing the bigness of the big Monkey buildings.
Monkeys are good but whys ninja $490, it should be $305.boomerang monkey hits too slow we dont like that.we like the MVM,its cool that you can attack other people.
Why do you lose some Money if you cancel a upgrade this happened to us with the dart monkey upgrade building still good is just this so pls fix it but it not super annoying and bad.
We DONT CARE HOW OLD THIS GAME IS we DONT CARE we HAVE BTD6 we DONT CARE ITS PAY TO WIN we STILL LOVE IT.
The game is based off of a similar game called Bloons. In any order its amazing. Highly recommend.
Ive been playing this game for years. Its great passive fun, and a good way to pass the time.
This game is somehow better than BTD6 for a one for a long time. We thought it was the best video game but balloons Monkey City is somehow better than a new game and we think that kiwi should definitely make it into an.
You will not be disappointed if you install this game, we slept on the idea of playing this upon release and now we play it every day.
A classic Bloons game with decent city building mechanics. We dont have much to say, if you like Bloons or Tower Defence games in general youd probably enjoy it. Theres no annoying energy mechanics so you can play levels and restart as many times as you want. Ads are also few and far in between. Good stuff.
Excelente juego, pero ahora solo lo puedes jugar si tienes Netflix es enserio.
We downloaded it today, theres only a few ads but every second of playtime, we see a A vision of a different, better image of earth where everyone holds hands and cares for each other, so please download this game because Im 100% sure it would cause world peace. We love having our monkey city, we have named each and every one of our monkeys. Our favorite one is the boomerang monkey and we made sure to make multiple banana farms to feed them and keep them happy. Now please consider getting this game because we have never been happier. Ok masterpiece of the century.
We love this game a lot. Its very cool. You beat levels you gain new areas. Its just amazing.
