Guardians

Guardians is a video game in the puzzle genre developed by Loriciel SA and published by Loriciel SA originally released in 1991. It is currently playable on DOS, Amstrad CPC, Atari ST.

Guardians is a puzzle game in which the player takes the role of a guardian who is tasked with containing the so-called 'Triffids', balls of pure energy. The game takes place in a top-down perspective and has two planes. The upper plane is where the player is active and has to build walls. There are five colored blocks that can move freely around the area. If several blocks of the same color come together, they merge and are no longer mobile; such mergers are called 'cohesions'. Some blocks can be combined with any color. The player can either use blocks that are already on the plain or place bricks from a depot.

One to three triffids are on the lower plain and bounce up and down. If they bounce upwards and there is a block in the way, they are lost and give negative points. Normal blocks are destroyed when they come into contact; only cohesions are a permanent wall. The goal of each level is to score a certain amount of points (by creating cohesions) within a time limit.
