Mega update for the holidays!
- New Hero! Adora is a divine new Hero that no monkey temple should be without
- 2 new maps: festive Winter Park and mysterious Adora's Temple
- Fusty the Snowman skin
- Plus performance improvements, balance changes, and heaps of improvements!

Notes

[edit | edit source]
  • The update notes claim that Overclock's attack speed buff was reduced from +100% to +80% and Ultraboost's permanent attack speed buff was reduced to +8%, when it actually reduces them to +66.7% and +6.67%, respectively. The error most likely stems from the buff internally being represented by a multiplier to the tower's attack cooldown, which was changed from ×0.5 to ×0.6 in this update, and representing it as an attack speed buff requires calculating its reciprocal.
