Bloons is a blast, and is guaranteed fun for all ages, while keeping it cartoonish and simple
An extremely fun game. Bloons TD 6 was lovingly crafted in 2018 and has still received regular updates, adding new towers, new maps, and so much more. This series (and this game in particular) takes the classic 'tower defense' genre and expands into so much more. Funny little snippets from the creators show up ever so often, warning you of coming dangers (special types of enemies) or just making some jokes (like reminding to you take a break every now and then and go outside). The character designs are amazing and unique, each upgrade changing the monkey (the towers) visually in some sort of way, while mixing different upgrades along the three paths will cause those different visual attributes to merge in different ways, adding even further to the uniqueness of this game. Despite this being a tower defense game, there is, in my opinion, little harm that could be done to a young child while playing this. The enemies are brightly colored balloons that float along the track, and they are defeated by being popped. There is quite a lot of weapon use in this, including things like a Sniper Monkey or a Tsar Bomba, but the depictions and descriptions are played very cartoonishly ("Sniper monkey wields a long range rifle and can pop a Bloon anywhere on the map!" and "A very, very, large bomb. Someone put a stop to this craziness!") This game is fun for both parent and child, and you'll never be left without something to do, as there are many different modes, varying difficulties, and maps ranging from easy to expert. All in all, Btd6 is a great game for both kids and parents. Cartoonish and fun, Bloons is a highly recommended game.
