Try this! is an Exotic Power card in Bloons Card Storm, introduced in version 2.0. It increases the target Monkey's max ammo by 1 and grants it one ammo. If the target had no ammo, the added ammo will allow the target to attack again, but it does not count as reloading; it does not trigger any On Reload effects, does not reset the counter for the next reload, and stops the counter from progressing until the Monkey is out of ammo again.

The card artwork depicts a laboratory, where Dr. Monkey grants a spiked ball to another monkey, who is fascinated.

Tips

This section was last updated for: version 6.2
  • Try this! benefits Monkeys with only 1 Ammo, but provide value per ammo spent the most. Good targets for Try this! include:
    • MOAB Eliminator, to instakill more large Bloons at once, especially if given the chance to reload.
    • Crippling Sniper to stall and deal heavy damage to large Bloons.
    • Bouncing Bullet, to deal more burst damage if multiple Bloons are on the board. It's got one of the highest non-instakill damage per ammo excluding scaling Monkeys.
    • Extra-Super Monkey gains more consistent DPS after it has already been scaled to deal high damage per ammo.
  • Opponents who use Return to Sender, Shrink, and Expert Negotiator may take advantage of Monkeys with Try this! to negate the investment.
    • For the same reason, it is not recommended to use Try This! on cards already vulnerable to monkey removal such as Wizard Monkey and Spike-o-Pult, which only enlarges its weaknesses.
  • A lesser known feature of Try this! is immediately granting 1 extra shot to the targeted Monkey. For 1 less Gold than Quick Reload, Try this! acts as a "reload" to 1-Ammo Monkeys, in addition to the permanent max ammo bonus.
    • Because of this, a very niche tactic of Try this! is to use it on an opponent Monkey with more than 1 Ammo, which will delay the full reload by 1 turn, at the penalty of "helping" build more ammo.
