In [[Bloons TD 4|''Bloons TD 4'']], it cannot slow [[Ceramic Bloon (BTD4)|Ceramic Bloons]] (though the glue effect is still applied). It includes upgrades that slow Bloons for longer, soak all layers, and slowly damage Bloons.

Its [[Specialty Building~~|specialty building~~]] is the [[Glue Supply Depot]], while its main [[Monkey Building|buildings]] in ''[[Bloons Monkey City]]'' are the [[Glue Gun Range]] and [[Glue Factory]].

In ''[[Bloons TD 5]]'', its two paths focus on damage over time and frequent application of longer-lasting glue with more [[pierce]]. Its [[Specialty Building]] in ''BTD5'' is the [[Glue Supply Depot]], while its main [[Monkey Building|buildings]] in ''[[Bloons Monkey City]]'' are the [[Glue Gun Range]] and [[Glue Factory]].

In ''[[Bloons TD 6]]'', it gains a third path that focuses on slowing [[MOAB-Class Bloon|MOAB-Class Bloons]] and stunning regular Bloons. This path also includes upgrades that increase effectiveness of the glue, while the middle path focuses on pierce and attack speed plus additional support.

In ''Bloons Pop!'', ~~the Glue Gunner (renamed~~ the Acid Gunner~~) exchanges glue for~~ acid that slows advancing Bloons while damaging them for two rounds. It is unlocked at level 5.

== Other appearances ==

The Glue Gunner's [[Glue Storm]] ability present since ''Bloons TD 5'' has made appearances as a [[Bonus Power]] in the [[Bloons Supermonkey 2 (mobile)|mobile version of ''Bloons Supermonkey 2'']] (alongside Corrosive Glue) and as a [[Power (BCS)|Basic Power]] [[Glue Storm (BCS)|card]] in [[Bloons Card Storm|''Bloons Card Storm'']].

While not direct representation, in [[Bloons Adventure Time TD|''Bloons Adventure Time TD'']] [[Princess Bubblegum (BATTD)|Princess Bubblegum]] is heavily based off the Glue Gunner, while the [[Slime Princess]] [[Ally (BATTD)|ally]] is a more obvious standin for the base tower.
