'''Hard Difficulty''' is the third and final difficulty in the Bloons Tower Defense 2-5 (not BTD5 Mobile) since the release of [[Bloons TD 2]]. At the beginning of a game, the player has half as many lives on hard as they do on [[Easy Difficulty|Easy]]. In [[BTD2]] and [[BTD3]], hard difficulty has 50 [[Round]]s. However, purchasing the towers is also pretty expensive in hard difficulty.
