Robo Monkey is a Magic Monkey card in Bloons Card Storm, introduced in version 5.0. It is a temporary defender that gains +10 ATK during the opponent's turn. When it attacks, it attacks the target Bloon twice. If the first attack reduces the target's health to 0 or lower, the target still takes the second attack before it pops, and it still triggers effects that activate upon dealing damage (such as Growth Gas Bloons and Extractor Bloons). The second attack cannot be interrupted by being stunned after the first attack (e.g. targeting a Stun Gas Bloon).

- Overall, Robo Monkey is a strong anti-aggro Monkey, offering bursts of damage, all for a low cost. Its lack of long-term damage shouldn't be a problem versus aggro or if cycling through multiple Monkey cards during a single turn for damage.
- With double attacks, Robo Monkey synergizes twice as well with buffs such as Zee Jay's Rad Enhancements but also worse against Armored Bloons. It is also a Defender, allowing it to assist against 0-delay Bloons. Its main drawback is being a Temporary Monkey.
- Because it double attacks Bloons even as a Defender, it effectively does up to 40 more damage when used as a Defender.
- Avoid pre-placing a Robo Monkey or entirely relying on its Defender, or else the opponent may use cards such as Whoops to remove it. As a Defender, it's also vulnerable to Offense Best Defense, so be cautious if the opponent uses Amelia.
- Like all Temporary Monkeys, a Robo Monkey that has run out of Ammo opens up an Expert Negotiator next turn.
Update history
Ammo reduced ― 3 → 2
ATK increased ― 40 → 50
When targeting a Bloon, the indicator of how much damage it will deal now factors in the damage from attacking twice
- Now correctly strips Armor when Armor-Piercing is applied (bug fix)
Development
An early version of this card existed in the data of Bloons Card Storm in the Firstlook test and Full Playable test. It was removed in the full release, but its text remained in the game files. Its description was updated to make the keyword text bold in version 4.0, and its description was changed to its final description in version 4.4, before it was released in version 5.0. While it always had the ability to attack twice, it was otherwise very different in mechanics and stats.
