About Spore Guard: Defend a Living Spore Core

Spore Guard puts you in charge of protecting a living spore core against relentless waves of animated microbes. The core fires on its own, but survival depends on how well you direct its attention, gather resources, and build up permanent strength between runs. Enemies escalate in variety and pressure as the waves progress, and your score reflects how long the core holds out.

How to Play Spore Guard: Survive Waves and Grow Mutations

The spore core fires automatically, so the main task is steering its focus. Tap an enemy to direct the core's shots toward that target. Glowing biomass appears on the field — tap it to collect it. When the defensive burst meter fills, activate it to unleash a burst of protection. Between waves, choose mutations to develop permanent upgrades that carry forward across runs. The goal is to keep the core alive for the highest possible score.
