Pros
Pro Great depth and variety
There's a great variation in towers, their stats and upgrade trees, as well as enemy types (bloons) and levels you have your battles in.
Pro Clean graphics
The gameplay in previous games (TD4 and lower) was a bit laggy at times, luckily TD5 has cleaned up the graphics to make them a bit more simple while also allowing for new designs that differentiate things in the game in order to make it easier to tell what is going on. The cleaned up graphics also allow for smother gameplay due to them using less resources, meaning no more laggy gameplay.
Pro Co-op mode
Unlocked at rank 10, two players can work together to beat a game, with a set map and difficulty, of Bloons. In co-op mode players can transfer money between them opening up new possibilities of gameplay.
Pro Extremely immersive, amazing touch controls
The touch controls/movement controls on this are really really awesome. Zooming in and out on the floating island to either "god view" from high above where enemies look like ants, to down on ground level first person in a click or pull is pretty awesome.
Pro Great humor
Pro Polished
Cons
Con In-app purchases
This app does contain in app purchases, and plenty of them. Though they're not necessary for normal play, they are still present, and needed to unlock special perks (double cash mode). Everything else can be purchased with coins and bucks, which can be earned (or bought) through normal game play. They range from $0.99 - $49.99 per item.
Con Old graphics
Bloons TD's 2D Graphics are old and they don't fit in nowadays standards.
Con Coop mode networking is spotty
Frequent disconnects which can ruin a long game, no LAN mode or direct connect (it uses facebook).
Con Very limited placement of towers
This is not like many tower defense games where you can "build your own mazes" to send enemies how you want them. The spots to place towers here are very very limited (at least half way through campaign), and in most cases you only really have 4-5 viable spots to possibly put towers.
Con Geometry gets in way of ranges
The geometry in the game affects the ranges for the worse. You are very limited in where you can place towers, and if you try placing the standard gun, or laser in half the spots, they can't hit half of the enemies inside their range due to being on a mountain side for example.
It at least shows you this in the range of the tower by showing a red area where they won't hit. It ends up making a lot of the spots to place towers useless as the only towers you can put there are crazy long range ones like the Missle.
Con Some of the towers don't seem very balanced
Some towers don't seem very well balanced. For example the Annihilator, which is one of the final unlocks, it just doesn't do much.
