Guardian Rock

"''"Long ago, there once lived a tribe, one that was culturally and technologically advanced. The people were impressive engineers, yet to be bested even today. To guard their treasures from the wrong hands after they left, they built a stone-shaped guardian that would bash any intruder's body. And it was left at that for thousands of years. ''When famed archaeologists heard of the marvel that was the tribe's society, they ran for the treasure at the heart of the ruins, hoping to get a glance at what could be the key to solving all their petty efficiency problems. Little did they know that they would become cannon fodder for a certain spirit's ultimate test....""

A flash game made by Torpedo Lab, Guardian Rock is a very fun and challenging puzzle game that functions similar to the "unstoppable block" games. Here, you take the role of an ages-old guardian rock as he strives to free the temple (and keep its secrets safe) from greedy archaeologists. It takes a delightful break from the usual Adventurer Archaeologist genre in that you get to play the object that any of them would dread. Of course, even he doesn't get it easy; there are Spikes of Doom, temporary blocks, warps, and the occasional TNT crate or two. But it'll all be worth it in the end. So, what are you waiting for?

Enter, mortal, if you dare!
