A Strong Tower
As you can see it has a lot of different bombs at its disposal that can turn the tide of wave, sometimes literally. Not only that but with its base price of $500 it does well in the early game being able to solo 5 waves by itself.
Not only that, but with the Ice Bombs you can slow targets and the confusion bombs can send them walking back for a while. This is extremely strong especially if used with the tougher mobs in the game.
The damage it also deals can be a lot with the damage the mobs take from the fire and poison puddles. It is also decent at dealing with single-target enemies despite the bombs primarily doing splash damage. That said, it’s one of the best towers in the game for early and mid-game.
That’s the Jester tower in Tower Defense Simulator. Now, go out there and try this tower yourself!
