reasons to play this instead of btd6 -no microtransactions -no talking monkeys -better maps -faster paced gameplay -the number 5 is better than the number 6

What can I say, in the last few months I've played this game more than any sane person ever could. And through it all, the moments of both glory and abject failure, I can honestly say I've found a new appreciation for BTD5 as a whole. There is nearly an endless amount of challenge and entertainment packed into this simple game, and as much as BTD6 managed to improve, the 5th game isn't worth forgetting.

Is this a good game even for it's age? Yes. Is this game fun? Yes. Is this better than btd 6? No. In my opinion. Should you even play this game? Yes.

Bloons TD5 is an addicting but easy tower defence game to play. The difficulty is low for a tower defence game, but there is a sense of exhilaration in popping the hordes of balloons that appear. Even though many years have passed since its release, the game still receives updates such as gameplay improvements, new maps and events. If you like tower defence games, it's a good deal even at full price, and if it's a genre you're not interested in, it's often on sale, so if you buy it and play it at that time, you may find it surprisingly fun. Overall, it's a highly recommended game.
