Version 3.2

“

Banana Farm has become increasingly popular as of recently, with it arguably being too dominant in the meta. We would like to tone it down slightly by upping the price of 3xx, a particularly efficient farm for the early/mid game. In addition to this, we have improved the Bank so that it can fill up earlier, since this upgrade does not get used and the long fill time is one major reason for this. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
3-X-X Banana Plantation	Upgrade cost increased ― $2,600 → $2,750
X-3-X Monkey Bank and further upgrades	End of round income (pre-interest) increased ― $400 → $550
X-5-X Monkey-Nomics	Ability: cooldown reduced ― 60s → 50s  Ability: initial cooldown increased ― 20s → 25s

Version 4.1

“

A minor price cut for this upgrade which rarely gets used. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
X-3-X Monkey Bank	Upgrade cost reduced ― $4,600 → $4,400

Version 4.3.1 (OTA update 1)

“

EZ Collect has never been a very valuable upgrade, particularly for desktop players or those using Banana Farmers where the collection radius isn't important. Quality Soil means that a 3/4/502 farm now has similar efficiency to a 3/4/520 farm. The former is cheaper and generates less cash, while the latter is more expensive and generates more. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
0-0-0 base tower 1-X-X Increased Production and further upgrades X-1-X Long Life Bananas X-2-X Valuable Bananas	Banana collection radius increased by 50% (equal to radius with EZ Collect previously)
X-3-X Monkey Bank and further upgrades	Now has the visual effect when full without the 0-3-1 crosspath
X-X-1 Quality Soil	Replaced EZ Collect with Quality Soil
X-X-2 Banana Salvage	Upgrade cost increased ― $200 → $300 Note: Cost actually increased to $240 in practice, due to Quality Soil's discount
X-X-3 Marketplace	Upgrade cost increased ― $2,800 → $3,500  Actual upgrade cost is the same due to Quality Soil's discount, actual overall cost increased by $40 due to Banana Salvage's cost nerf
X-X-4 Central Market	Upgrade cost increased ― $13,000 → $16,250  Actual upgrade cost is the same due to Quality Soil's discount, actual overall cost increased by $40 due to Banana Salvage's cost nerf
X-X-5 Monkey Wall Street	Upgrade cost increased ― $46,000 → $57,500  Actual upgrade cost is the same due to Quality Soil's discount, actual overall cost increased by $40 due to Banana Salvage's cost nerf

Version 4.4

Tiers	Changes

X-X-4 Central Market	Upgrade cost reduced ― $16,250 → $13,000
X-X-5 Monkey Wall Street	Upgrade cost reduced ― $57,500 → $46,000

Version 4.5

“

The Monkey Bank benefited a little too much from the introduction of Quality Soil. These changes are intended to keep the strength of the Monkey Bank when combined with the top path while nerfing the bottom crosspath. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
0-3-X Monkey Bank and further upgrades	End of round income reduced ― $550 → $450
1-3-0 Monkey Bank + Increased Production 1-4-0 IMF loan + Increased Production 1-5-0 Monkey-Nomics + Increased Production	End of round income increased ― $450 → $500

Version 4.7

“

We are buffing the monkey bank top crosspath to make it a more tempting option when compared to the bottom crosspath and Quality Soil. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
2-4-0 IMF loan + Greater Production	End of round bonus cash increased ― $550 → $700
2-5-0 Monkey-Nomics + Greater Production	End of round bonus cash increased ― $550 → $1000

Version 4.8

“

The introduction of the Quality Soil upgrade was another impactful change we wanted to allow plenty of room to settle before tweaking it. We feel this change will slow down farms in the early game, but keep their late game impact. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
X-X-1 Quality Soil and further upgrades	Discount to path 1 and 2 upgrades decreased ― 20% → 15%

Version 4.10

“

The IMF Loan was proving to be a bit too good of a deal so we have reduced the amount it lends and also decreased the capacity of the bank. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
X-4-X IMF loan	Bank capacity reduced ― $20,000 → $18,000 Note: Monkey-Nomics unaffected ($30,000)  Ability: loan amount reduced ― $20,000 → $15,000 Description changed accordingly
X-5-X Monkey-Nomics	Ability: cash gain reduced ― $20,000 → $15,000 (undocumented)

Version 4.11

“

Monkeynomics is underperforming after the x4x IMF Loan nerf. This should bring it back in line with how it was pre nerf. [...] This change will hopefully add a bit more identity to the bottom path, setting it apart from the other 2. — Update notes

”

Tiers	Changes
X-5-X Monkey-Nomics	Ability cooldown decreased ― 50s → 40s Note: Initial cooldown remains 30s
X-X-2 Banana Salvage	Sellback bonus decreased ― +10% → +5% Note: Marketplace and above unchanged (+10%)

“

This early game buff will allow for more aggressive and faster paced strategies — Update notes
