Mechanics (What does the player do?)
Players control a level 1 bodyguard. By collecting bodyguards with the same level, they merge and upgrade to level 2. For example, if players have a level 1 bodyguard and collect another level 1 bodyguard, these two will merge and form a level 2 bodyguard.
Moreover, there are level-up gates in the game. After passing each level up gate, players receive a bodyguard with the same level as the gate. Players can choose between receiving a level 3 bodyguard or 3 level 1 bodyguards.
Goal is to upgrade bodyguards as much as you can and defeat the end level boss to save the princess
