How to play Missile Guard
Missile Guard is a defence arcade game with one rule: protect the toy town. Six colourful cities and three cannons sit at the bottom of the screen while cartoon comets fall from the sky. Tap or click anywhere to fire a shell from the nearest cannon; it flies to your target and pops into a fluffy cloud that bursts every comet that flies into it. Time your shots and aim ahead of the falling comets.
Every cannon holds a limited number of shells, so every shot counts. The middle cannon fires much faster shells, and keys 1, 2 and 3 fire the left, middle and right cannon at the pointer. Later waves bring comets that split in two or three, bomber blimps that drop comets as they cross the sky, and slippery comets that dodge your clouds.
After each wave you earn points for the shells you saved and the cities still standing, with a score multiplier that grows every two waves, and you pick an upgrade: bigger clouds, quicker shells, fuller racks or a bubble shield. Earn a spare city every 8000 points to rebuild a lost one. The game ends when every city is gone; your best score is saved on your device.
