Our Expert Score

83/100

Bloons Super Monkey is a fantastic spin-off from the tower defense series that turns the formula into a high-speed 'bullet hell' shmup. Instead of placing towers, you control the Super Monkey directly, flying through the air and popping waves of bloons with an increasingly ridiculous arsenal of weapons.

The upgrade system is the meat of the game. You collect 'blops' to buy everything from triple-darts to laser eyes and mystical energy blasts. It’s incredibly satisfying to see a screen filled with thousands of bloons vanish in a second once you've fully kitted out your monkey. While the difficulty spikes toward the end, the 'just one more try' factor is extremely high. It’s bright, colorful, and pure chaotic fun.
