Bloons Tower Defense 1
The game that started the massive tower defense phenomenon, Bloons Tower Defense 1 brings you back to where it all began. The track is simple, the graphics are classic Flash, and your objective is clear: stop the balloons (Bloons) from escaping the maze by placing monkey towers along the path.
There are no hero monkeys, crazy skill trees, or tier 5 upgrades here. It is just you, Dart Monkeys, Tack Shooters, Ice Towers, Bomb Towers, and Super Monkeys against increasingly tough waves of Bloons. It is a pure, straightforward strategy experience that still holds up perfectly for a quick session.
Controls
Use your mouse or touchscreen to select and place towers from the menu on the right. Click or tap a placed tower to view its upgrades or sell it.
Tips that actually help
- Placement matters most: Put your Tack Shooters on tight corners or loops where they can hit the track from multiple angles and maximize their spread.
- Ice and Bomb combo: Ice Towers don’t pop Bloons on their own, but freezing them groups them up so a Bomb Tower can blast many at once.
- Save for Super Monkeys: While expensive, a well-placed Super Monkey is crucial for surviving the later, faster waves. Keep some prime real estate open for them.
