→{{series|Bloons TD}}: reformatted, also what is the preferred set of iconations? Is it upgrade artworks? Is it insta icons? Is it placeable tower icons? Perhaps, just use the most suitable image that would be compatible with small sizes

The '''Dart Monkey''' ('''Dart Tower''' in ''Bloons Tower Defense'') is a [[tower]] in the {{series|Bloons TD}}, introduced in ''[[Bloons Tower Defense]]''. Inspired by the [[monkey]] from the {{series|Bloons}}, the Dart Monkey is included in every ''Bloons TD'' game. Throughout all of the Bloons TD games, it remains a medium-range, early game tower with low pierce and damage relative to other options. In some games such as ''BMC'' and ''BTD6'', certain special benefits can provide free Dart Monkeys.

For its incarnations in ''BTD1'' and ''[[Bloons Tower Defense 2]]'', the Dart Monkey has two upgrades improving its pierce and/or range; ''[[Bloons TD 3]]'' adds upgrades that further increase those attributes. ''[[Bloons TD 4]]'' and its {{mobile version|BTD4}} introduced the [[Spike-o-pult (BTD4)|Spike-o-pult]] upgrade, exchanging the monkey's darts for spiked balls.

The first path focuses mainly on bursts of damage via the [[Spike-O-Pult (BTD5)|Spike-O-Pult]] and [[Juggernaut (BTD5)|Juggernaut]] upgrades. The second path introduces [[Triple Darts (BTD5)|Triple Darts]], which can be upgraded to the DPS-oriented [[Super Monkey Fan Club (BTD5)|Super Monkey Fan Club]].

In ''[[Bloons TD 6]]'' and ''[[Bloons TD Battles 2]]'', the Dart Monkey is classified as a [[Primary]] tower. The first path, with the addition of [[Ultra-Juggernaut (BTD6)|Ultra-Juggernaut]], fulfills a similar role to its ''BTD5'' counterpart. The second path allows for buffing other Dart Monkeys' DPS, culminating with the [[Plasma Monkey Fan Club (BTD6)|Plasma Monkey Fan Club]]'s [[Activated Ability]]. The third path swaps out its darts for a crossbow, allowing for increased pierce and speed. In ''BTD6'', it has a [[Paragon]] called the [[Apex Plasma Master]].

The Dart Monkey is the first [[Monkey (Bloons Pop!)|Monkey]] to be unlocked in ''[[Bloons Pop!]]''. It throws a volley of low-pierce darts that deal high damage. Merging two of them makes a [[Mega Dart Monkey]], which replaces darts with spiked balls that produce smaller balls as they pop Bloons.
