There is some debate regarding whether or not the Half Cash is harder than CHIMPS. This page will compare in detail whenever the Half Cash is more difficult or not.

Player starts with 650$.

Disadvantages

 * Starting on Round 6 and player must pass Round 100.
 * Player Starts with 1 life and cannot be restored, meaning they cannot let any bloon escape.
 * Player cannot use Continues, Make Income outside of popping bloons, use Monkey Knowledge, Powers or Sell Towers.

CHIMPS has primarily difficult in early game & has more deadly rounds to pass in late game (e.g. Rounds 95, 98, 99).

While Half Cash on other hand due to its income restrictions make entire game difficult and Rounds like 40, 63, 78 are more deadly. Also due to half income from popping Bloons, towers & upgrades are effectively 2x more expensive and in terms of income sources having repaying rate halved aswell effectively taking 4x longer to repay themselves.
