The reward for completing the mission a 2nd time and over is 200 ( 400 in Steam)

Rounds
There are custom Rounds in this Special Mission, going as follows:

Tips

 * Glaive Riccochet works really well as the glaives will go in circles, destroying bloons.
 * Engineers (with its tier 4 Specialty Building activated) works extremely well with bloon traps. Try building several of them, and then using the cash from the bloon traps to buy powerful super monkeys.
 * Burny Stuff can also work really well as it will pop several layers off of all bloons that it hits.
 * Ground Zero ability can wipe out all but the last round in a single tap - try to get one at the end of round 7. (Patched in one of the latest updates, now needs more than 1 Ground Zero for a BFB)
 * A 4-2 Glue Gunner can clear most rounds on its own. It will need assistance with camo and MOAB-class bloons.
 * This mission gives a total of 176685 XP, so it is recommended to play this mission to get high amounts of XP.
 * This mission can be a good way to get Monkey money as the player gets 500 (or 1000 on PC) for the first time, and 200 (or 400 on PC) each time after.
 * If the player pauses and quit after a round has started, and resume, the player won't lose any lives after thirty seconds have passed.
 * Update 1.6 has patched this bug.

Trivia

 * Angry Squirrels won't go berserk on this special mission even if the player loses lives after 30 seconds has passed.
 * It is possible to Heli-farm cash and lives infinitely by placing some Support Chinooks off the track and locking them in place so that they don't attack anything, then abusing their activated ability.
 * The track is the only track that doesn't have an exit.
 * This track somewhat resembles the track "Circle" from BMC Mobile. The exceptions are that the No Escape track has no exit and the "Circle" track has unusable land in the middle in the form of trees.
 * This mission is the only mission to have a time limit to complete it.
