🛡️ Guardian Protection Protocol

As cosmic guardians, our primary mission is protecting the universe... and you

⚠️ Important Guardian Alert

Gaming should be fun, entertaining, and never a source of stress or financial problems. If you feel your gaming habits are becoming concerning, we're here to help protect you.

🚨

Cosmic Warning Signals

Watch out for these signs that gaming might be becoming problematic:

  • Gaming for longer periods than planned
  • Feeling anxious or upset when unable to play
  • Neglecting work, family, or social activities for gaming
  • Lying about time spent gaming
  • Gaming to escape problems or negative feelings
  • Thinking about gaming constantly throughout the day
  • Feeling the need to play for longer periods to feel satisfied

If any of these sound familiar, please reach out for support.

💡

Guardian Gaming Guidelines

Follow these cosmic principles for healthy gaming:

  • Set time limits before you start playing
  • Take regular breaks - the universe isn't going anywhere
  • Never play when stressed, upset, or under pressure
  • Keep gaming as one of many fun activities in your life
  • Play for entertainment, not to solve problems
  • Share your gaming with friends or family
