Short for “No Continues, Hearts Lost, Income, Monkey Knowledge, Powers, or Selling”, the C.H.I.M.P.S mode is “the” go-to mode for testing out your BTD6 skills. Now since C.H.I.M.P.S mode is the highest level of difficulty in Bloons TD 6, you can only unlock it after beating a particular map on Impoppable mode. 


So, to unlock the C.H.I.M.P.S mode for a given map, you will first need to beat the same map at Impoppable mode, which itself is unlocked by beating Alternate Bloons Rounds mode. In Impoppable, your life is restricted to only 1. As such, you will need to be very careful with your strategies since one mistake can set you back to the starting point. 


Beating Impoppable Mode


The Impoppable mode’s standard rounds start at Round 6 and end at Round 100. So, there’s a tough and tiring challenge ahead of you. Forget about any healing, including mana shield as they won’t work in this mode. Furthermore, tower cost rises significantly in this mode. An exact 20% rise. When it comes to Bloons, they will gain a 2% increase in speed after 80 rounds. Players will also have to face Super Ceramic Bloons. And lastly, after 81+ rounds, MOAB- class Bloons will have their health and speed increased. 


Now, the previous paragraph might have scared you, but don’t worry. It’s entirely doable, but you would need some practice. To start, we recommend that you use Spike Factory in this mode. These support towers excel at providing defense and are very effective against camo bloons. Also, for the final upgrade of Path 3 for Spike Factory, opt for Perma-Spikes, since they can counter a large number of Bloons with relative ease. 


It’s also highly advised that you build/deploy Super Monkey and Ninja Towers. Keep upgrading them as each upgrade will make them more suitable for harder rounds. Lastly, it’s important that you take the “Pre-Game Prep” power (Monkey Knowledge Tree). For early rounds, it’s one of the best powers as it will help you in both saving energy and money for upgrading towers in the later rounds.  


We hope that this guide has helped you in unlocking C.H.I.M.P.S mode in Bloons TD 6. For more on the game, don’t forget to follow DigiStatement
