Ice Monkey freezes bloons within its short range at a slow rate. Frozen bloons do not move further along the track until they are either popped or the duration of the freeze ends. Frozen bloons cannot be popped by sharp towers in a similar way to lead bloons. White bloons are a type of bloon throughout all of the games that are immune to this freeze effect until popped.


In either Bloons Tower Defense 1 or Bloons Tower Defense 2, the Ice Tower has two upgrades that improve its meager range and increase the duration of its freezing. There is also a significant change in price past the first game. In BTD 1, the tower costs 850 money, while in later titles it costs significantly less. With Bloons Tower Defense 3, the introduction of permafrost, an upgrade that slows frozen bloons until they are popped and snap freeze, which allows the tower to deal damage. Ceramic bloons are also immune to freezing and were introduced in BTD 3, although this immunity to freezing would later be removed. Bloons TD 4 and its mobile version combined several upgrades from previous games while adding a new upgrade that slows nearby bloons passively. BTD 4 also adds zebra bloons that are immune to freeze and contain more white bloons.


In Bloons TD 5, Bloons TD 5 Deluxe, mobile version, Bloons TD Battles, mobile version, and Bloons Monkey City, the Ice Monkey has 2 upgrade paths.
