Trivia

"Track editor" sprites found in the game files

• If a tower is granted the ability to pop Lead Bloons and/or frozen bloons (such as from the Monkey Intelligence Bureau), the sound of a sharp projectile hitting those will simultaneously make the sound, and pop it (this happens in mobile versions of Bloons Tower Defense 4 also).
• Daily Challenge mode in Bloons TD 5 Mobile has been replaced by random challenges, similarly to Bloons TD 5 Deluxe.
• If the player plays this game on an iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, or iPhone 4S, the fact that the player must tap the towers (bottom left), and agents and abilities (bottom right) icons for their menus to appear affects the difficulty of the game. However, while playing on an iPhone 5 (and later), towers and special agents/abilities can be found on the right side of the screen.
• This version lacks some sound effects from other versions (i.e. On the intro sequence, also with Abilities).
• Before the addition of the track Brick Wall (version 1.2), with full sacrifices, The Temple was less powerful and it also fired no ice balls (although it was still capable of freezing Bloons), in addition, it fired MOAB Maulers rather than golden missiles (hence the fact that it deals extra damage to MOAB-Class Bloons). This was changed in version 1.2 so that the ice balls were visible, the MOAB Maulers were replaced with golden missiles, and it was buffed.
• The Android version does not work on some devices - it crashes when a track is loading (this may have been fixed).
• Sandbox Mode must be purchased with 1500 instead of being unlocked for free at Rank 25.
• It is possible to replay a round that receives a game over by exiting and reopening the game, while losing the towers and upgrades the player purchased during the round.
• The Monkey Engineer has a glitch when you upgrade it to 1/4. It will show a 0/0 Engineer building Sentry Guns with a big attack range and may be confusing of why the Engineer changed his hat to his old one.
• In July 2015, IGN made Bloons TD 5 as a free Game of The Month, with a free promotion code for iOS users only. This event is limited time for a month.
• Games can be saved even after entering Freeplay Mode.
• BTD5 Mobile have the same texture in appearance as Bloons Tower Defense 5 Steam, as the Steam version is based on the mobile version.
• Tracks in this game are thinner than flash's tracks.
• The two 3-bloon packs that appear at the screen when finishing an track can be popped by tapping on them.
• you can make close to the equivalent of a true sun god this can be done by getting all the max sacrifices adding a few sun gods inside the sides of the temple and surrounding it with call to arms monkey villages (they can stack infinitely)

If you use the call to arms they can make a ray from the temple.
