The Spike Factory is a tower in Bloons Monkey City. It is available to unlock after the player reaches City Level 5.
It dispenses spike piles onto random areas of track. Spike piles each have 5 pierce, with a visual representation of pierce based on pierce remaining. Spikes last up to 70 seconds or 1 round, whichever comes first. It can be improved to strengthen each spike pile into spiked balls and mines, or attack significantly faster and disperse MOAB-shredding spikes throughout all paths.

Footnotes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 In the Flash version, the MOAB damage multiplier applies twice due to a bug. It deals 44% more MOAB damage at rank 3, 207% more at rank 8, and 298% at rank 13. These tiers do not affect its damage to Boss Bloons at all, as MOAB-SHREDR Spikes has a separate damage modifier for them.
- ↑ In the mobile version, this actually reduces Spike Storm's cooldown by 12 seconds.
