Maps

Please see the |discussion page on uploading track pictures.

In the BTD series, maps (also referred as tracks) are environments containing paths in which Bloons travel on. There are many tracks to choose from, with the difficulty of each determined by factors including but not limited to the number of Bloon entrances, number of paths and the length of these paths. Most tracks did not have a specific name until Bloons TD 4.

As of October 2021, there are more than 300 maps throughout the pre-BTD6 game series, and 59 maps in Bloons TD 6.

The name "map" is favored over the name "track" starting from the Bloons TD 6 Generation among the BTD6 community, as this term is less ambiguous to the term for the track that bloons go over ("bloon track" or "lane"). However, even in BTD6 generation games, these games sometimes refer to "maps" as "tracks".

Bloons TD 1 Track
In the original Bloons Tower Defense, there is only one track and no selection of difficulty. The Bloons come from the left and go up to the top. The Bloons are also very off-centered in BTD1.

The track is the very first track in the Bloons TD series. The terrain is grassy; the grey paths look like stones. There are no trees or water.

Bloons TD 2 Tracks
In Bloons TD 2, there are 3 tracks rather than 1, with each track level determining the difficulty.

Easy Track
The Easy Track in Bloons TD 2 is, as its name suggests, relatively easier than the others. Bloons appear from the left and exit at the bottom, on white paths.

Medium Track
The Medium Track has the same terrain as the BTD1 track, being grassy and having same color of paths. It is slightly shorter than the Easy track. Bloons start from the top and exit at the bottom.

Hard Track
The Hard Track is the most difficult of the three tracks, with two intersecting paths. It is most likely located in a desert; the paths are brown.

In BTD5, there are 63 tracks, with Alpine Lake, Haunted Swamp, Cash Money and Spider Map exclusive to Co-op Mode. The Steam (and mobile?) editions have 73 tracks, mostly the same, including six Co-op exclusive tracks.

These are the lengths of different tracks in Bloons TD 5. Track lengths are measured in RBS (red bloon seconds i.e. the approximate time taken in seconds for a red bloon to complete the track). Also, as some Intermediate, Advanced and Expert tracks have multiple paths, the time listed is the shortest path.

Beginner Tracks

Intermediate Tracks
Intermediate maps are trickier and often feature water and other obstacles that restrict where players can place their towers. These tracks have a reward of 150 on Easy, 200 on Medium, and 300 on Hard.

Bloons Monkey City Tracks
In Bloons Monkey City, tracks are handled a bit differently than the rest of the series. They can't be chosen freely but rather each tile has a track associated with it. They'll then have to beat the track to expand their Monkey City with that tile. Tracks, except for those for special challenges (special missions), don't have official names leaving track names to be unofficially developed by fans. 'Special Challenge' tracks will have their own specific challenges while other tracks will fit in various categories of terrain such as Grass and Forest, with various forms of terrain favouring the use of certain towers and often also restricting the use of others.

Once players beat a track, it'll be added to the 'My Tracks' with current exceptions (as at 2020) being Caves on mobile and Special Missions on browser. Added tracks can be replayed earning city cash and rewards form any applicable event that may be running. Special missions will play as before but other tracks allow players to select a level of difficulty among other options.
