co op private match is so glitchy, disconnects me from my partner who is literally in the same room as me and fails to connect right after a working game, it's super frustrating and honestly disappointing. fun game, but if you want to play with your friend. good luck to ya, it's barely possible except when the game doesn't wanna have a stroke
Repetitive, pay-to-play despite being a game you have to pay full price for anyway. Every level follows the same pattern and you can use the same combination of towers to clear everything. Some levels are so ridiculous with the amount of balloons they send you literally have to use certain towers in order to beat them. There's no room to experiment, just follow the formula (and purchase the necessary agents to pass certain levels) over and over until there's nothing left to do.
Overrated garbage. Significantly worse than BTD 6. Anybody saying this game is better has genuinely horrendous taste in anything and everything
i can't even manage to finish a single run without the app completely closing. just can't get past the same wave, regardless.
bought a new phone. sold my old one and now can't access my account because you can't link Facebook account. Awesome! Thanks!
online multiplayer gets stuck on "testing game connection"
Can't restore purchases - game tries to sell me cosmetic items that I previously purchased, and if I try to purchase them again it says I already own them. The 'Restore Purchases' button does nothing.
Was it not enough to pay for the app? Why do I have to constantly be harassed to spend even more money on a game I already paid for. It just feels pathetic to be bothered so much. To think I grew up playing this game on miniclip too
I spent $20 to gain more money in game and it didnt give me anything. app closed on me. absolute rubbish
Really needs a setting that turns down all the flashing lights. game is unfortunately too migraine inducing for me to play at all!
incredibly boring and unbalanced. game forces you to use specific towers and no matter what map youre on, same exact bloons on the same exact rounds requiring the same exact strategy. you beat one lvl you beat them all. Having to lvl up towers to unlock their abilities is dumb and just makes it impossible to win early on unless you play on easy. Also, why are there SO MANY MICRO TRASACTIONS?!?! I already paid for the game why is it pay to win. could say so much more but I dont have enough room.
I feel embarrassed to have even played it
love this game
I need a refund it got boring so I need a refund like why doesn't it let me refund if I'm not gonna play the game such a scam
Too many bugs. In Co op, you can't send money to anyone if anything is under the menu that comes out to give money and the menu covers a good 30% of your side to do so. Also it doesn't let you play towers close to the outside edge in Co op even though you can in single player. And it is SOOOO stupid after every round, it cancels towers you are trying to place. That makes me mad especially since you can't talk to your team mates during a match to tell them to wait so I can place a tower.. FIX IT!
fun when it works right multiplayer hardly works wish they'd fix the bugs and multiplayer. game stole my money as well
can no longer play online with friends and been that way for years.
Resets my progress this is the 3rd time I've redownloaded this game over the span of months in between and everytime it resets everything so no saved progress. the only thing I have are my achievements but I have to unlock everything again and spend tokens to upgrade again?? I wish this would get fixed. love BTD but this is not fun
Im heartbroken to say this but BTD5 is pay to win😭after lvl 63 there was an absolute flood of bloons and ive consistently lost at this moment every single time I had 5 MAX LVL BLOONJUTSU NINJA MONKEYS A MAX TORNADO MONKEY WIZARD AND FOUR MAX LVL MOAB ASSASINS BRUH couldnt even fight back
terrible i have not played in a while i log in and i have everything erased thats crazy i aint starting over
purchases does not restore. have the option to but does not work. try to rebuy too? does not work let you. broken in-game store
Great game but CO-OP is hit and miss. I also don't have my cosmetic skin I paid for so knock a bit more off.
game is great but btd5 doesn't have an ability to save your progress to change devices, they have done this on all other games they have but this still doesn't have it. i would be willing to change this rating to 5 stars once this simple update happens.
