Each level has two Boss Bloon fights (except the first level, which only has one). The boss traps the player in a small arena and the player must destroy it to progress. They have multiple health bars (represented by the number of skulls) and attack patterns that involve moving around and summoning Bloons. The second boss of a level is always different from the first, and is a harder version with more health bars and stronger Bloon spawns. | |||
