Tadguards are minor enemies introduced in the Puzzler's Pack DLC of Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon. A cousin species of the Tadvolts, they are yellow frogs with a white belly and tongue. They wear a scholar hat similar to Puzzle Knight's and have a blue shield symbol on their belly. They appear in the Scholar's Sanctum.

Behavior and Tactics[]

Tadguards are Legendary Path foes in the Scholar's Sanctum. Every 3 turns, Tadguards lock all nearby units for 3 turns. Locked units cannot be attacked and stay in place on the board instead of falling down. Defeating a Tadguard removes the locks it has cast.

Like Tadvolts, Tadguards have (2) health points and deal 1 damage point per attack.

Trivia[]

  • Tadguards are named "shieldfrog" and "tadshield" in the game's files.
