Getting started in Battle Pets TD

Overview

People familiar with tower defense-style games will find themselves right at home in Battle Pets TD. Each level has an enemy entry point and a heart you must defend with your pets. The gist is to place your pets along the paths using the allocated funds and defeat enemies to earn XP and more money. Siphon some of the earned money to upgrade your pets and make them stronger mid-battle.

Starting you off with three pets, you can comfortably clear the first map without purchasing more eggs. The map will give you enough resources to obtain extra pets, rounding off your party with five members. Upgrade and level them up as you move from one stage to the next and conquer every area in the game.

Once your party is sufficiently advanced, explore the title’s various game modes that challenge your team’s effectiveness in battle. Take on the Endless mode or the ongoing events to earn attractive rewards and add powerful new pets to your collection.

Gameplay Mechanics

Featured stages (Image via Roblox)

• Level Structure: Each stage in Battle Pets TD features multiple zones that must be unlocked by clearing the one preceding it. The first zone, available by default, is often the easiest and features just one boss-level enemy, along with tens of enemy waves. The number of waves and difficulty ramps up the further along you go in a stage.
• Difficulty: Choose from the four difficulty options when starting a stage: Easy, Normal, Hard, and Superhard. Higher difficulty options offer better rewards while cranking the enemy damage and health up to 11. The opposite is true for Easy mode, which is suitable for beginners.
• Stages: The base game features eight stages classified by their difficulty using Stars. The higher the star rating, the more advanced the stage. Consequently, the prizes you get for clearing a four-star stage are significantly more valuable than their one-star equivalents.
• Eggs and Pet Collection: Use Pet Coins or Robux to purchase Pet Eggs. Hatch these eggs for a chance of obtaining the rarest pets in the game. If their abilities suit or surpass your current progression level, add them to your party as well. Note that certain eggs can be obtained through stage completion as well.
• Endless Mode: Challenge your party’s abilities in the Endless Mode and take on infinite enemy waves. The number of waves you clear will dictate the loot you receive at the end of the game. Since there is no end to this challenge, feel free to leave the mode once you reach the desired reward threshold.
• Events: The game regularly hosts various themed events that provide exclusive pets for participation or completion. Events rarely stick around for a long time, so be sure to partake in these limited-time stages and earn lucrative loot.
• AFK Zone: The Safari Zone is the home to this game’s AFK Zone. Earn various rewards for doing nothing, making them quite beneficial if you don’t have much time to play. Simply enter the Zone and leave your device on to passively receive freebies.
• The Mart: The Mart is the in-game shop that accepts Pet Coins. Purchase items that reroll your pets’ stats, such as Attack, Speed, and Range. Starting at 100 Pet Coins, you can easily purchase them to give your units the extra oomph they need to be effective in battle.
