Who Wants To Be A Bloonionaire?

Who Wants To Be A Bloonionaire? was a small trivia Flash game released to promote Bloons TD 5. The game presented a series of trivia questions about the Bloons TD series, and if all 10 questions were answered correctly in a row, the game presented the player with a trailer for BTD5. It was released a few days before the trailer was officially uploaded to YouTube.

Releases

Kongregate

The Kongregate release uses Kongregate's account system for saves and high scores. Following the discontinuation of Adobe Flash at the end of 2020, the site began using Ruffle to emulate Flash games on browsers that disabled Flash, though BTD5 currently doesn't work on Ruffle.

Newgrounds

The Newgrounds release used Ninja Kiwi's account system, though it no longer supports logging in. It was last updated for v130131.01, the update that introduced Z Factor and The Eye. Following the discontinuation of Adobe Flash at the end of 2020, it can only be played on Ruffle or the Newgrounds Player.
