Acid Pool is a game mechanic in Bloons Card Storm that adds a puddle of acid on a space of the Bloon track. The mechanic was introduced in version 4.0, but it was not considered a keyword until version 4.2.[fn 1] When a player ends their turn with an Acid Pool on their track and a Bloon occupies the same space as it, it deals 30 damage to the Bloon. Acid Pools last until they have dealt damage two times, and they become slightly faded after the first time. Contrary to what the description implies, they can last an infinite number of turns as long as they don't deal damage two times.
Strong Acid Pool is a keyword similar to Acid Pool, except it deals 50 damage each time instead of 30. The only card with this keyword is Bloon Master Alchemist.
