Unlike other ''Bloons TD'' games, gameplay in ''BATTD'' revolves around characters, which are one-off [[tower]]s that are based on both towers from other ''Bloons TD'' games and ''Adventure Time'' characters. The player can choose up to ten characters to use in a game, and each character can only be placed once. Unlike other towers, [[upgrade]]s for characters use a tree structure where upgrades can lead into multiple other upgrades and/or have multiple prerequisite upgrades. Each character has a [[star level]] that can be increased by spending [[character resource]]s, which unlocks permanent enhancements and access to more upgrades. Characters can also be customized with items to enhance their stats and grant additional abilities:
