'''Bloons Tower Defense 2''' (also known as BTD2 or Bloons TD 2) is the sequel to the original [[Bloons Tower Defense (game)|Bloons Tower Defense]], and the prequel to [[Bloons Tower Defense 3]]. It released on October 18, 2007, two months after the release of Bloons TD 1. It introduces game difficulties to the Bloons TD series, with [[Easy]], [[Medium]], and [[Hard]] difficulties being available. It also introduces [[Lead Bloon|Lead]] and [[Rainbow Bloon|Rainbow Bloons]]; a new tower, the [[Boomerang Thrower]]; and [[Road Items]], items that can be placed directly on the path of the Bloons.

==Bugs and glitches==
===Upgrade stacking glitch===
{{main|Upgrade stacking glitch}}
This glitch currently doesn't work on Ruffle because it doesn't support navigation keys. By pressing {{key|Tab}} until an upgrade button is highlighted and pressing {{key|Enter}} to purchase it, the player can purchase that upgrade multiple times on one tower. There's no limit to the number of times the upgrade can be bought and it doesn't stop if the player can't afford it, which puts their money into the negatives. The most useful application of this glitch is to use the Tack Shooter's Faster Shooting upgrade to increase its [[attack speed]] to the cap of 40 shots per second; this specific application is often called the "hypersonic Tack Shooter glitch".

Don't let any bloons escape - buy monkeys, tack shooters, cannons and boomerang throwers to help you. The sequel to the original bloons tower defense game.
— Description on MochiGames
We had a huge response to the first game, most people seemed to have lots of fun despite the game being fairly easy by most td standards. We've added 3 new maps, one for three difficulty settings. We've also added a new tower type, the boomerang tower, as well as some new 'on track' items: Road spikes and Monkey glue. A sequel wouldn't be complete without more bloons of course, and we've added 2 nasty new types, the lead bloon and the rainbow bloon.

Enjoy.
