*I don’t actually know the minimum needed

The Strategy

Before you even start the first wave, buy a dart monkey by the track entrance.

Buy a Monkey Farm and put in a location that’s open enough to place multiple farms

Buy a Banana Farmer and place it in a location that allows Monkey Farms to be placed nearby it.

Start the wave

During the wave, upgrade your Banana Farm to 1-0 and your Dart Monkey to 0-1

By wave 4, you should have a 0-3 Dart Monkey, save up for another Banana Farm and upgrade that to 1-0

Buy another Dart Monkey if necessary, upgrading that to 0-3

By wave 10, you should have 3 Banana Farms and 2 0-3 (or 2-3) Dart Monkey’s

Place a Monkey Village nearby your Banana Farms, this will make it easier to buy upgrades for them

You can either save up your money for a 3-0 Farm, or buy another Farm and upgrade that to 2-0

Buy a Monkey Apprentice and upgrade that to 2-0

By this point, you should have enough money to to upgrade your farms to 3-0, maybe even buy a 4-0 if you’re lucky enough.

At wave 30, you should have at least 1 4-2 Monkey Farm (or more) If you don’t have enough money, sell your Monkey Village

At this point, you can do whatever you want, since you will be grinding out thousands of dollars in a single wave (or up to $10000+) althought here’s what I recommend:

  • Build a 4-2 Village by the entrance (or centre if you have the Beacon upgrade enabled)
  • Buy tons of 2-4 Super Monkeys
  • Go crazy and buy whatever you desire/demand in your game, you can do whatever you want! You’ll have over 100K

Why it works (Conclusion)

Monkey Farms are seen as a passive (as the name implies) money farm. If you get a Monkey Farm on wave 1, and let’s say you don’t upgrade it at all, this is how much you would get if you played for 85 rounds:

$80 a round x 85 rounds = $6,800

To caculate how much you get in a round, count the amount of bananas that appear in one round, and multiply by how you get you get per banana.

For example: 4 Bananas a round x $20 every banana = $80 every round

If you buy two Banana Farms, the result would be

$80 a round x 85 rounds x 2 Farms = $13,600

To calculate how much money we can make off these, we can just take the Money Per Round and times it by the ammount of waves/rounds left (while adding for other Banana Farms.) For example:

(1200 MPR x 42 R x 2 F) + (500 MPR x 42 R) = $100,800 + $21,000 = $121,800

Where MPR is the Money Per Round, R is the amount of rounds remaining, F is how many farms there are. There are 2 4-2 Monkey Farm and 1 3-0 Farm being used right now. If none of them were upgraded, you would save up ~$121,800!

That’s enough to buy you 3 0-4 Super Monkeys.which is probably enough to solo anything. And we’re not even including bloons popped by your actual towers, since this is passive income.

I hope this guide helped you out, happy bloon hunting!
