I bought Magic 2 or Right Hand and switched to the Left one to buy Boomerang 3. It did put Magic 2 on the left, didn't buy Boomerang 3 but instead when I did put the previous one back Magic 2 disappeared but it bought Magic 1. Magic 2 is still loading on the right hand and i lost my blop money. Long story short: the fact of linking to an online profile having to reload for each change can lead to some goddamn annoying glitches.

in case of massive lag, you can actually skip the boss and go to the next level. well, at least, I lagged a lot, earned the bronze badge, and skipped the boss in 3-5.

Super Monkey 2: Waste time or Waste money. I know it's a free game, but when you have to spend money to purchase ENJOYMENT, not good.

For me the mouse based controls do not work too well. I constantly end up getting stuck somewhere, probably by accidentally moving the mouse outside of the window. On the positive side, some the creatures the designer created with balloons are a piece of art. Love them.

Endless grinding, awful level designs, upgrades that cannot be reversed, confusing menus, and to top it all off, greedy Kred prices. Thanks for the Medium badge, screw the rest.

We're playing pretty fast and loose with terms like 'game' and 'fun' and 'enjoyable' here. The concept is mildly amusing, and I like upgrade systems, but this requires way too much grinding for way too long. Next time try making your game more fun instead of just long enough t

I see the game still has connectivity issues with the server, as in blops aren't updated fast enough I'm still losing blops I earned in a stage when I paused to step away for a bit. Otherwise, I've enjoyed the game and just swung by to grab the badges.

After about an hour of play in a top-down scroller, I'd expect to have.. just about everything. Not some shameless war-monger-monkey who wants to overcharge me for the ability to get more money.
You'd have been better off to make an enjoyable game and ask for donations than to shamelessly make players grind for hours on end OR give you money to feel like this game is winnable. For SHAME, NinjaKiwi, for shame.

This surely looks like a smartphone game. There's a lot of grinding and if you want to clear the content at a regular rate, you must pay for it. This is not the kind of game I expect in Kongregate. The game is not worth a penny if I have to pay for everything.

my balloon amount is stuck on -1, after every map, whatever amount of baloons i pop i resets to -1... i'm loving the game, but this is obviously ruining it for me....

I hope this is a bug... upgraded some weapons, when I return to the game I have the stuff I bought, but the previous tiers re-locked and I need to purchase them again to upgrade further.
Ex: have tier 4 dart and enough money for tier 5, but tiers 2 and 3 are locked again

I've only seen such greedy micro-transaction deals on those clone "war strategy" MMORPG games. At least you can show off in an MMO. What's the point of wasting money on a useless game that's not even close to fun?

there should be an easier or at least less time consuming way to get blob cash than clicking retry and go afk over and over again
other than this would be a great game 2/5

Magic should really destroy WAY more bloons considering how much it costs and how far down your list it is. Complete waste of money.

Dear lord, did they bribe Kongregate to get this POS badges? Making flour and sharpening blades are less grindy than this. The only thing I can think of as being worse from a good series is Epic Saga. At least you aren't quite as annoyingly intrusive with the demands for money as that.

Oh, and one more complaint. It seems like you're always trying to trick me into buying something. You'd think "Store" is where you buy upgrades for your monkey, not get asked for a credit card. If you play these kind of games with little kids you'll understand how aggravating that can be.

I hate to echo everyone else but the balance is WAY off. I understand developers want to get paid for their game and effort (and feel they should) but either go all pay or have premium content or something but the grind is AWFUL! Playing every level 10x isn't fun. It also cheapens the Bloons brand, which most of us enjoy. Kingdom Rush has a nice balance of content and premium content, take a note from their example if you wish to actually make money.

You have to lose a level to get to stage select? And then you have to replay each level, one after another, from there onwards until you lose a level again, before you can choose to go back and replay? Really? I'm forced to lose a level before I can choose which level to play? I'm surprised at you, NinjaKiwi, I thought you were better than that. Otherwise this would be an occasional fun 10 minute time-waster (when it's spread out over time, grinding isn't so bad). I absolutely *wuv* the bloon creatures, but the being-on-rails aspect knocks this down to a 3/5 (and I feel generous giving it that).

grind is way too much. after 30 mins of playing im only 1/10th to the 15 point badge. prices of upgrades way too much.

I like this game, and I think it's a huge step up from the first, but there's just something sadistic about not only forcing us to grind, but to punish us for it at the same time with those damn blue bloops. And don't get me started on the flying saucers.... :P (5/5)

As has been said by others: _way_ too much grinding required. The amount of money required to buy upgrades and the amount of money given are ridiculously balanced. 2/5 for me.

Why is the game so grindy? In the original game, you had 1 blop = 1$, but now it's 20-30 blops = 1$ (20x the grinding??) Also, why am I bleeding money, research, and upgrades? I lost an entire DIGIT from my money total since the last time I played (4,235$ > 435$,) I've just lost an Elemental Strike and Doom burst, and I lost all my research one time. I've lost, in total, about 21K. That's a huge amount of money, for such a grindy game. I want compensation: blops give more, or give me 21K back. It's a 1/5 from me, but it can change.
