Set a Watch challenges you to keep the home fires burning, coming to Android and iOS

by

  • Set A Watch is a dice-rolling campfire-defence strategy puzzler, coming soon
  • Arriving on iOS and Android it challenges you to keep a campfire burning in the face of waves of monsters
  • Starting life as a board game, it brings fully fleshed-out mechanics and more to mobile

Instead of just focusing on the action-packed battles against fearsome creatures during adventuring, it’s essential to remember that there are periods of rest and relaxation in between these heart-pounding instances where one’s life hangs in the balance.

Absolutely, we tabletop RPG enthusiasts can relate. You know that moment when you’ve successfully survived a perilous journey, finally taking a well-deserved break for a long rest, but then the Game Master starts describing something lurking in the underbrush, poised to strike your weary and wounded party before they even have a chance to recover…

The essence of Set A Watch revolves around this concept: Initially a board game, it has now transitioned into a digital format, available on Steam, iOS, and Android. In this game, you find yourself battling wave after wave of adversaries who aim to extinguish your campfire. The brief respites between these waves are spent fortifying for the next assault.

You get to choose from six unique characters, assemble your team, and then take turns rolling dice. The numbers rolled will help you tackle different challenges and, naturally, combat enemies.


You gain the benefits of a long rest

As a devoted fan, I must say that Set A Watch stands out as one of those brilliant games that transforms a seemingly simple idea – adventurers taking a break – into an intricate blend of tower defense, strategy, and RPG puzzle elements. It masterfully evokes the intense struggle of enduring a prolonged fight against the ominous creatures lurking in the forest, making every moment feel like a battle for survival.

The disappointing aspect of the recent news is that although there’s a Steam page, we don’t currently have information about its availability on iOS and Android devices, or its planned release date. However, I’m keeping a close watch and will be ready to take action when Set A Watch becomes available.
