Balloon Siege
Press Send Round to start — new towers unlock as the rounds go by. Pick a tower from the shop, drop it on open grass beside the path, and it pops balloons in range on its own. Earn money per pop, upgrade your towers during or between rounds, and send the next round when you're ready.
Balloon Siege — a free online arcade game on TotType
Balloon Siege is an original tower-defense game where you place and upgrade towers to pop advancing waves of colorful balloons before they reach the end of the path. New towers unlock as the rounds go by—dart throwers and tack shooters first, then snipers for sneaky camo balloons, bombs for armored lead balloons, and eventually a super tower that does it all. Earn cash with every pop, buy upgrades, and earn special abilities like Mega-Pop blasts to turn the tide. It's a free online game for kids, playable in your browser on phone, tablet, or desktop with no downloads — anyone can try a demo run with no account, and a free parent account with a verified email unlocks unlimited play.

How to play Balloon Siege
Press Send Round to start — new towers unlock as the rounds go by. Pick a tower from the shop, drop it on open grass beside the path, and it pops balloons in range on its own. Earn money per pop, upgrade your towers during or between rounds, and send the next round when you're ready.
Tips & tricks
- Press Send Round to unlock your first towers, then place them on the grass beside the bends in the path—balloons spend longer in range there. You can keep building and upgrading while a wave is on the board.
- Camo balloons (with the dashed outline) can only be popped by Sniper, Laser, or Super towers (or a Mega-Pop), so have one in place before camo balloons start turning up in round 7.
- Upgrade your towers when you have spare cash—each level adds range, damage and fire rate, so a well-placed tower that's been upgraded can outwork a new one in a poor spot.
Frequently asked questions
How do you play Balloon Siege?
Press Send Round to release the first wave—towers unlock as the rounds go by. Pick a tower from the shop, then click or tap the grass beside the path to place it. Towers pop balloons in range on their own and earn you cash, which you spend on more towers and upgrades, during a round or between them. You decide when the next round starts.
What are the special abilities you earn?
As you survive rounds and pop balloons, you earn four abilities: Big Freeze (slows every balloon about 3 seconds), Mega-Pop (blasts all balloons on screen), Cash Boost (plus 250 coins), and Extra Life (restores 25 health). Tap them when you need help!

Yes! Balloon Siege is completely free, plays in any web browser, and works great on phones, tablets, and computers—no app download. Anyone can try a demo run with no account, and a free parent account with a verified email unlocks unlimited play and saves your scores.
