Tinkerton is above-average in terms of Beginner maps' difficulty, due to it being fairly spread-out. However, its length is above-average among the Beginner maps, allowing for greater functionality among global-range towers. In addition, towers with decent range placed in the middle can cover many parts of the track at once, significantly enhancing their power. Tinkerton can be beaten using general guidelines found below. | Tinkerton is above-average in terms of Beginner maps' difficulty, due to it being fairly spread-out.

Tinkerton is a Beginner map in Bloons TD 6, introduced in version 43.0. It takes place in Rosalia's workshop.
Layout
[edit | edit source]On Tinkerton, Bloons enter from the left and exit at the bottom-right. The lane transitions from being the workshop's tubes at the left to being covered by grass at the right. After the top bend of the grass part, Bloons and blimps (including BADs) are slowed by 40%. The table, whiteboard, tree, top building, and orange juice containers all block line-of-sight, but towers can be placed on the bottom-left orange juice container. Water towers can be placed on the open orange juice container near the center.
Mechanics
[edit | edit source]There is a rocket near the top-left corner. Clicking it wobbles the objects on the table, and after the 11th click, the rocket launches towards the strongest Bloon/blimp on the screen. It does 3 damage to that Bloon/blimp, creates an explosion that deals 50 damage, has 16 pierce, has a blast radius of 16, and stuns all Bloons/blimps (excluding BADs) that it pierces through. The rocket's 3 initial damage can be applied to Camos, but the explosion and stun cannot. Neither the initial damage nor explosion can damage Black Bloons, Zebra Bloons, or DDTs, but the stun can apply to DDTs that have lost Camo properties. The rocket can only be used once per game.
Strategy
[edit | edit source]This section was last updated for: version 55.1
Tinkerton is above-average in terms of Beginner maps' difficulty, due to it being fairly spread-out. However, its length is above-average among the Beginner maps, allowing for greater functionality among global-range towers. In addition, towers with decent range placed in the middle can cover many parts of the track at once, significantly enhancing their power. Tinkerton can be beaten using general guidelines found below.
Basic Deflation strategies
Basic Apopalypse strategies
Basic Half Cash strategies
Basic Alternate Bloons Rounds strategies
Basic Impoppable strategies
Basic CHIMPS strategies
The one-off rocket can be ignored; it is minimal outside of challenges, being mostly used either to handle a single Camo Bloon or to stun a single blimp.
Towers that take advantage of Tinkerton's map layout are listed below.
Recommended towers and upgrades
[edit | edit source]| Name | Portrait | Reasoning & how to use |
|---|---|---|
| The Bloon Solver | 
|
When placed on the crater near the middle, Solver can see 4 sections of the track at once. Therefore, it can glue and deal damage to blimps to its left and completely clean up Bloons to its right. Solver's puddles trigger a chain effect that allows it to wipe out lower-tier blimps and Super Ceramics with ease. Pair Solver with Carpet of Spikes, which pops high-tier blimps and DDTs and leaves lower-tier blimps and ceramics that Solver does very well against. |
| Bloon Exclusion Zone | 
|
With Camo detection, Stronger Stimulant, and Lead popping support, the 2-0-5 sweeps through the late-game. It also pairs well with Overclock, thanks to its high cost and concentrated power. Bloon Area Denial System is a solid Tier 4 that saves up to BEZ while needing relatively little support. |

Easter eggs
[edit | edit source]- Interacting with the tree in the top right causes an orange to fall and a drone to pick it up and fly away.
- Interacting with the whiteboard turns it over. The front side says "TO DO" in Monklish and has a drawing of Rosalia's head and an orange slice. The back side has "SOLVE:" in Monklish, the equation "2+2=???", and a drawing of the square root of a pie.
- Interacting with the book by the window opens it for a few seconds.

Trivia
[edit | edit source]- The preview for version 43.0 specifies that Tinkerton takes place in Rosalia's main workshop,[1] but this was edited in the full update notes to simply state that it is Rosalia's workshop.[2] The reason for this change is unknown.
