It is set to become a regular [[Power]] in the upcoming {{BTD6 version|50.0}}.
The '''Cave Monkey''' (also known as '''Greg'''<ref>{{cite|url=https://ninjakiwi.com/blog/news/173387-what-s-up-at-ninja-kiwi-17th-july-2020|archive url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200803165405/https://ninjakiwi.com/blog/news/173387-what-s-up-at-ninja-kiwi-17th-july-2020|title=What's Up At Ninja Kiwi? - 17th July, 2020|publisher=Ninja Kiwi Blog|archive timestamp=20200803165405|retrieved=10 mar 2025}}</ref> or the '''Monkeysicle'''<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/btd6/comments/1mwttl4/bloons_td_6_v500_update_preview/ "Bloons TD 6 v50.0 - Update Preview!"]. ''Reddit''. Retrieved Thu, 21 Aug 2025.</ref>) is a hidden [[Power]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. It was introduced in {{BTD6 version|17.0}} as a one-off [[tower]] exclusive to [[Frozen Over]], but it became a purchasable Power in {{BTD6 version|50.0}}. It only becomes purchasable and usable as a Power after unlocking the [[They call me Cave Monkey!]] [[achievement]]; if the player obtains Cave Monkey uses by other means (such as rewards from [[Odyssey (BTD6)|Odyssey Events]]), they are not usable until after unlocking the achievement.


It appears on [[Frozen Over]] beneath the ice in the lower-right corner. It can be freed by hitting the ice above it with [[Mortar Monkey (BTD6)|Mortar Monkey]] shells 30 times. Once released, it jumps out of the ice and lands in a random area near the entrance of the track. In [[Co-op (BTD6)|Co-op]], it becomes owned by the lowest-numbered active player (i.e. player 1, unless that player quits). The Cave Monkey cannot be used on any other [[map]]. It has no [[upgrade]]s and returns no [[cash]] when [[sell|sold]], and if removed from the game (by selling it, removing an [[Arctic Wind (BTD6)|Arctic Wind]]'s ice platform, etc), there is no way to get it back without starting a new game.
The Cave Monkey [[attack]]s by batting [[Bloon]]s with its club, which [[damage]]s and [[stun]]s to up to 5 Bloons per hit. It stuns regular Bloons for 1 second and stuns [[MOAB (BTD6)|MOAB]]s, [[BFB (BTD6)|BFB]]s, [[ZOMG (BTD6)|ZOMG]]s, and (if visible) [[DDT (BTD6)|DDT]]s for 0.25 seconds. It can damage any Bloon type, but it cannot detect [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo Bloon]]s on its own. It has a very short [[range]] and a middling [[attack speed]], though unlike other [[Tower category#Items|item towers]], it can be [[buff]]ed. Also, unlike most base Powers, Cave Monkey counts as range for [[Advanced Intel (BTD6)|Advanced Intel]].


The Cave Monkey [[attack]]s by batting nearby [[Bloon]]s with its club, which [[damage]]s and [[stun]]s to up to 5 Bloons per hit. It stuns regular Bloons for 1 second and stuns [[MOAB (BTD6)|MOAB]]s, [[BFB (BTD6)|BFB]]s, [[ZOMG (BTD6)|ZOMG]]s, and (if visible) [[DDT (BTD6)|DDT]]s for 0.25 seconds. It can damage and stun any Bloon type, but it cannot detect [[Camo Bloon (BTD6)|Camo Bloon]]s on its own. It has a very short [[range]] and a middling [[attack speed]], though unlike other [[Tower category#Items|item towers]], it can be [[tower buff|buffed]].
In ''[[Rogue Legends]]'', the Cave Monkey is obtainable as a [[Boost]] or from the [[Carry A Big Stick]] [[Artifact]], where it costs $750.

In ''[[Rogue Legends]]'', the Cave Monkey can be obtained as a [[Boost]] or from the [[Carry A Big Stick]] [[Artifact]], with a cost of $750 [[cash]]. This is the only way to place it outside of Frozen Over before {{BTD6 version|50.0}}.

{{Incomplete|strategy section possibly not fully fleshed out, as there could be more to the cave monkey than usual}}
{{BTD6 last updated|56.3|section=y}}
Not particularly strong except when used to stun MOAB-class Bloons. Setting to Strong is usually preferred.
