In Bloons Tower Defense 4 (a.k.a. BTD4) you pretty much just pop balloons for the whole game so here's some tips about what to do to get to the big levels:

1. Towers
When you start a new game or you're just starting to actually play you place weak towers right? That's why at the beginning you start with the weak towers and buid up to the big ones because if you start out with the big tough towers you won't be able to keep up with the prices. So main thing start with the weak towers, build up to the big towers.

2.Tower placing
If you have the strategy or idea of what tours you're going to use then you have to think about where you're going to place them. The best place to put the towers is where the would pop the most balloons. Like a cannon in the corner of a turn will do alot of area damage. So main thing think about where you are going to place your towers based on whatb they do.

3.Upgrades
When you buy a tower they always have upgrades right? That's why you want to rank up to unlock the upgrades. But spend your money carefully. If you've unlocked a new ugrade for a tower try it out in sandbox mode ( if you've unlocked it) to strategize. So main thing use your upgrades wisely!

4.levels
As you progress through the game you get to higher levels so you want to buiild a strategy to get to the high levels.
What i'm saying is practice, practice, practice to build the best strategy possible. Once you've achieved that just try to keep going, and going, and going! So main thing build a strategy to get to the higher levels!

5. Mochi Upgrades
You probably already know that there are Mochi upgrades. My perspective of them: they ruin the fun. I don't use them because I like to play fair. I would only use them if you beat everysingle track on easy, medium, and hard. So main thing only use Mochi upgrades if you've COMPLETELY beaten the game.

Those are the tips that I've got so I hope they help with your gaming on BTD4!

Well, you can actually get much farther with that strategy.

Serioously firetail . . . you just proved my strategy . . . .

I do exactly that, but with sun gods at the front instead of rings of fire and glue gunners >.<

Fire Rings tend to work better in my opinion in groups.
They do the same job and are much cheaper.

I agree firetail that way they can take out layers and layers of groups of bloons all at once.

This game seems to good enough to lag my computer lol. Not by much, but my firefox crashed when i tried to open a new tab trying to use another laggy website. I was like on level 100 something with all 100 lives. I couldn't screenshot it cause you know, it crashed lol. Anyway, yea, firerings are really good in clusters because they penetrate so many layers of balloons. Motars might have the same effect, but it doesn't really work that well. Tempest storms all the way!

he reason I favor the sun gods over the rings of fire is that their fire rate is much higher and they never stop firing. They're better at suppression. Also, there's limited space on the map, and to make it as far as possible you need to have the best use of that space because those first few units are crucial to the effectiveness of the rest of the strategy.

Rings of fire are great, but sun gods strip bloons faster because of their fire rate - also, since they fire three at a time, they can simultaneously hit multiple bloons.

Rings of fire destroys everything that isn't a MOAB or BFB when teamed with arctic wind.
They also take up less room.
If you have 5 + arctic wind no normal bloon gets past it.

Wow that sounds awesome firetail. I should try that some time except with five arctic winds and 5 rings of fire all bunched together.

I would defiantly get 2 maxxed out Glue shooters. With the power of gluing twenty bloons at a time, you can focus your attacks in beginning, They Glue shooters stick to each bloon color and will pop every 2 seconds.

You don't need that many arctic winds, 1 will do.

@Drako
Glue gunners are useless.
The corrosive glue will not last long enough because other towers kill them quicker, and they don't affect BFBs, MOABs or even ceramic bloons!
