How to play Mirror Guard

Rotate the shield that guards the crystal at the center. Reflect incoming beams one after another to grow your combo multiplier; when you’re cornered, use a brief full-ring defense.

A reflex game where you protect the crystal at the center from beams coming from every direction. Pass the first level with 18 reflections; in later levels, beams come faster and more often. The crystal has 3 lives.

Step by step

  1. The shield forms an arc around the crystal. Move the mouse or your finger toward the incoming beam, and the shield turns to face it.
  2. On a keyboard, left/right rotates the shield. Up and down point it straight to the top or the bottom.
  3. A beam that touches the shield bounces back and counts as a reflection. Every beam that reaches the crystal costs a life.
  4. Ring (Space or the Ring button) seals off the whole area around the crystal for a moment, then recharges in 3 seconds.

Tips

  • Every 3 beams you reflect in a row with the shield raise the multiplier one step, up to ×5. If a beam touches the crystal, the streak resets.
  • Beams reflected by the ring give fewer points and don’t grow your streak; use it when you’re squeezed from 2 sides at once.
  • The shield doesn’t snap into place; it turns at a set speed. Start turning early for a beam coming from the opposite side.
