Bump Guardian

About the Game

Step into the role of a protector and nurture a growing life. Bump Guardian is a casual, real-time tower defense deckbuilder where strategy meets biological survival. Instead of building towers, you play cards representing healthy habits and nutrients to power a protective shield against advancing threats.

 How to Play

• Active Defense: You are the Bump Guardian, a ring features a shield that fires a powerful laser. Match your cards to the incoming threats to trigger your defenses.
• Thematic Cards: Use basic card like Water, Folic Acid, and Exercise to fend off bacteria and biological stressors.
• No Pressure: There are no timers or ticking clocks. Focus on the health of the guardian at your own pace.
• Real-Time Tactics: While there is no time pressure, enemies move in real-time. Use specialized cards like Ginger Tea (unlocked in the full version) to settle the chaos.
