Developed by Ninja Kiwi · Published by Ninja Kiwi





You lead a small monkey settlement into the wilderness, reclaiming territory from bloon hordes. Each adjacent tile you attack becomes available to your city after you win its tower-defense battle.
Build on captured tiles to expand your city and improve your defenses. Monkey towers and upgrade buildings unlock battle options, while farms, banks, and power structures support your economy and city capabilities; decorations let you customize the layout.
As you expand, you unlock more towers and upgrades, explore for treasure tiles and special items, and take on distinct maps and special missions. You can also visit friends' cities, exchange supply crates, send bloon attacks, and compete in Contested Territory events.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its combination of tower-defense battles and city building, especially the steady sense of progress from capturing tiles and unlocking buildings and towers. Reviews also call out strategic battles, the soundtrack, and the option to play in short sessions. Some players find the later progression slow or repetitive, and others report bugs or frustration with waiting and monetization.
