Update 1.8 is now live - New Maps, Banana Farmer & more!

Happy new year, Ninjas! It's our first batch of new content for 2023, so here's what's new:

New Features

• Banana Farmer

• The Banana Farmer helps out in games by picking up collectibles for you.

• He’ll pick up anything that you’d normally have to tap or mouse over to collect, such as bananas (obviously), bloon traps, supply crates, Obyn’s Wall of Trees, etc.

• Each Banana Farmer is single-use. He only lasts until the end of the game or until you sell him.

• You can purchase Banana Farmers in the shop for Monkey Money. Your first pack is free!

• Bloon Bot

• The Bloon Bot automatically sends Bloons at your opponent for income so you can focus on defense.

• It will continually send whichever Bloon you choose until you manually send some or tap/click on it to stop.

• It will stop sending if you run out of cash but will resume as soon as you can afford the chosen Bloon send again.

• Each Bloon Bot is single use. It only lasts until the end of the game or until you sell it.

• You can purchase Bloon Bots in the shop for Monkey Money. Your first pack is free!

• New Map: Banana Depot

• This new map is available in Ranked games from White Wasteland onwards and in Casual, Private and Event games.

• Space is hard to come by in this busy depot. You’ll need to pay to send the trucks on their way if you want more space for your towers.

• New Map: Bloon Bot Factory

• This new map is available in Ranked games from Lead Dungeon onwards and in Casual, Private and Event games.

• One of the large elevators descends into the depths of the factory every two rounds, temporarily removing all towers placed on it. You’ll need a backup defense to succeed on this map!

• Keep an eye on the warning lights and sirens next to the elevators. They signal when one of the elevators is about to descend, giving you a few moments to react before your towers disappear.

• Season 10

• A brand new bling season has started!

• Unlock awesome new cosmetics by earning Golden Bananas including the Voxel DDT and the Technical Tower Boost.

• Collect new items for Striker Jones and Biker Bones in two new hero showcases: War Games and King of Flame.

General Changes
