Volcano Terrain's biggest hurdle is losing Villages for major supports, as well as Ice Monkeys. Another issue is the reduced land space, which is further worsened on DNA and Keyhole. Keyhole is one of the most difficult of all single-lane tracks in the game, having few vantage points and coverage, especially on the multiplatform version.
Village is difficult to replace, especially in the Flash version of Bloons Monkey City due to having no Monkey Intelligence Bureau substitute vs DDTs. Use Banana Farms to compensate a lack of discounts. Without Radar Scanner, reliable internal camo detection or decamos such as Cleansing Foam can be used instead.
It is not recommended to play Monkey Teams on this terrain. Even with both favored towers available, the lack of Village makes this event much harder to play, to the point of impossibility on some maps.
