Daily Challenge

Last updated:, by User:



Daily Challenge is a special mode in Bloons Tower Defense 5 that was added in an update on Jan 27, 2012. The player must beat the pre-defined track with some special conditions, like a restriction to only certain types of towers, road items or upgrades or custom RBE. The Daily Challenge changes at midnight (GMT/UTC).

Rewards
The player is rewarded with Monkey Money for completing the Daily Challenge and also gets a Medal and Awesome Points for the specific number of challenges completed. A standard reward of $50 Monkey Money is usually given upon completion. Player is rewarded with full Monkey Money reward for Today's Daily Challenge one a day and with 40% of original reward, if the challenge is repeated. Also, the player can finish Daily Challenge Vault challenges for 40% reward and repeat them for 16% (40% of 40%). This does not apply to all of the Daily Challenge Vault challenges, as the "ZOMG" challenge and the "That Was Quick" challenge has been reduced to $2.
