Monkeys are a species of primates and the main characters of the Bloons franchise. Since the introduction of the Dart Monkey in the Bloons series, monkeys have appeared in some form in almost every Bloons game to date. Their enemies are the Bloons, balloon-like objects that threaten "the very social fabric of monkey society".[1]
"Monkey" is often used within Bloons games as an umbrella term for playable gameplay elements, even if it includes other animals, such as Wolves, and inanimate objects, such as Banana Farms (though many of the latter are still monkey-operated).
Gameplay
Monkeys comprise most of the towers in the Bloons TD series. In Bloons Monkey City, Bloons TD 6, and Bloons TD Battles 2, "monkeys" and "monkey towers" are often used to refer to towers as a whole. Not all towers are referred to as monkeys; most Special Agents are only referred to as towers, as most of them are based on non-monkey animals (except the Super Monkey Storm, Portable Lake, Pontoon, and Banana Farmer, all of which have been referred to as monkeys in later appearances), and in Bloons Adventure Time TD, the term "monkey" is used to refer to a specific group of monkey characters.
In BTD6 and Battles 2, monkey towers are grouped into one of five different categories: Primary, Military, Magic, Support, and Heroes.
The Bloons Supermonkey series stars Super Monkey as the main playable character, but in Bloons Supermonkey 2, he is joined by Ice Monkey, Storm Monkey, Dr. Monkey, and Allies, which are temporary monkeys summoned by powerups.

Monkeys are a type of card in Bloons Card Storm. They are the primary means of defending the player against the opponent's Bloons.
Biology
Physical characteristics
The monkeys of the Bloons franchise are mostly brown monkeys with medium-sized tails, black eyes, large ears, and yellowish skin, though much variance exists in the colors of their fur. Druids have pale tan fur, Ice Monkeys have very pale blue fur and darker blue skin, and Mermonkeys have fur in various shades of blue and pink. It is also common for them to have reddish or orange fur. Many monkeys also have hair, separate from their fur.
They do not appear to be based off of any real-life primate species in particular.
Behavior
Monkeys are known to perform various expressions with their pupils, such as winking and turning into spirals when dizzy, though it is also common for them to close their eyelids partially or completely, with pupil expression or without.
Diet

Monkeys eat a variety of foods, but have a strong preference for bananas.[2][3] Monkeys are incapable of getting hyperkalemia.[4] Other foods they eat include pancakes[5] and pizza.[3]
The monkeys sometimes put bananas on their pizza, but "mostly the dessert ones".[3]
Society and culture
Monkey society was completely peaceful before the Bloons arrived[6], and continues to be peaceful aside from the Bloon War.
Language
Monkeys speak a variety of real-world languages. Most monkeys speak English, but some are bilingual and speak other languages such as French, Portuguese, and Korean. In addition, most monkeys know a sign language.[7]
The monkeys have their own writing system called Monklish. Contrary to popular belief, Monklish is not the main spoken language of the monkeys, but a writing script unique to the Blooniverse.[8] For the most part, it is a cipher of the Latin alphabet as it is used in English. It is also available in Bloons TD 6 as a selectable language, though it simply displays the English text in a custom font with Monklish characters.
Technology
The monkeys have technology that is, in more ways than not, more advanced than human technology. They are able to use cybernetics to recreate the bodies of monkeys who have been badly injured or lost limbs (for example, Cyber Quincy), and they use both magic and science in their battles against the Bloons. However, the majority of them seem to prefer more low-tech lives - most monkeys don't even wear clothes.

The religion of the monkeys in Bloons TD 6 revolves around the worship of the Sun God, whose immense power is fueled by the devotion of its followers.
- The Sun God is considered the ultimate force against the Bloons, and its power grows with faith and dedication.
- Sun Avatars are fearless monkeys transformed through sacred rituals to channel the Sun God's might.
- The True Sun God placed in-game is merely a representation of the actual deity.
- Channeling the Sun God's power is the best way to destroy Bloons.
- Adora, the high priestess, is the only one who knows the true nature of a Sun Temple's inner sanctum.
- Her ability, "Blood Sacrifice," sends monkeys temporarily to the Sun Realm, where they sunbathe to channel divine energy.
- The Vengeful True Sun God, though not inherently angry, is driven by vengeance, embodying its immense power.
- The Ray of Doom, a technological marvel created with magic crystals, was designed to rival the power of the Sun God.
- Ancient marks scattered throughout the temples suggest the existence of a god that absorbs light, possibly a "Sun Devil," whose power contrasts with that of the Sun God.
- At the heart of this faith is a commitment to Bloons destruction, unmatched by any other institution.
