Protecto

Protecto is a physics-based strategy and puzzle game about defending human settlements from natural disasters. You control Protecto, a giant guardian of nature who wakes after centuries of silence and agrees to protect humanity despite resenting it. Animals guide him as he confronts disasters and teaches history’s worst polluters a lesson.

Defend the settlements

Across 40 levels, you build barricades from blocks and other materials, then trigger a catastrophe to see how well your defenses hold. You view each level from above and carefully drop blocks into place. Physics-driven chain reactions determine whether homes survive or are destroyed.

Each environment brings its own hazards and materials:

• Snowy mountains: use wooden structures to stop avalanches.
• Urban environments: resist rockslides with heavy marble barricades.
• Dam failures: redirect floodwaters with strategically placed brick blocks.
• Volcanic regions: slow lava flows with obsidian structures.

Progress and challenges

You earn money as you progress, unlock new materials and refine your strategies. You can return to earlier levels to beat your records and save more buildings. Each challenge also offers a mysterious Bigbangium medal; uncover the secret of this material before facing the final Boss.

The game combines construction, physics and natural disasters with peaceful environments, a soundtrack and contemplative gameplay.
