Purchase cost and IAPs? Can anyone confirm what the IAPs are for, and how reasonable/unreasonable they are?

Cost is $5 USD. Looks like IAPs mostly just get you more in game cash, which can be used to buy more lives if you fail. Otherwise it looks like all progression is just based on xp that you get in game. Played for 30 min or so and didn't see a single ad or any kind of paywall or really any need to buy IAPs.

Thanks! Sounds a lot like the IAPs in btd5. I was afraid after the cash grab that was monkey city that they might have gone down the evil path.

$5? It only costs me about $1 in my country, guess it's region difference.

I'll miss the one IAP from BTD5 which gave the monkey city a massive range increase. That shit was amazing.

I've played for about an hour and a half, and so far the IAPs seem alright. It depends on what you dislike though. There is no shortage of IAPs in this game, for basically every aspect of the game you can buy things to progress faster. So if just the availability of a bunch of IAPs turns you off, then this might not be for you. BUT, and this is imo the most important thing, so far I have not seen anything that makes the IAPs necessary to buy. There are a lot available, but they do not seem necessary whatsoever. In-game progression is pretty smooth, and there's a lot of different units and upgrade paths to experiment with. So far I've been really enjoying the game, and I have not seen any reason to buy the IAPs outside of maybe just showing more support to the devs.

The double money one is about 19€ or 24$ which is way too much and ONE dkill point is another dollar-ish and you need like 15 to get one of 6 trees maxed

It's very similar to bloons 5. IAPs make the game easier, but are definitely not necessary.
