Adventuring isn't just about battling through hordes of monsters; it's also about the crucial downtime between those life-or-death encounters. This is the essence of Set A Watch, a compelling dice-rolling, campfire-defense strategy puzzler that's making its way to iOS and Android soon. Originating as a board game, Set A Watch now brings its richly developed mechanics to the digital realm, challenging players to keep their campfire burning amidst relentless waves of creatures emerging from the shadows.

Imagine settling down after a harrowing adventure, only for your GM to introduce a new threat lurking in the undergrowth, ready to exploit your party's exhaustion. That's the scenario Set A Watch captures perfectly. Available soon on Steam, iOS, and Android, this game pits you against continuous enemy onslaughts, with each lull between attacks dedicated to strategizing your next move.

You'll choose from six unique heroes, assemble your party, and roll dice to tackle various challenges and fend off the encroaching monsters. Set A Watch transforms the concept of a long rest into a strategic, puzzle-infused RPG experience, simulating the tension and strategy of surviving a prolonged forest skirmish.

While the Steam page for Set A Watch is already live, specific release dates for iOS and Android have yet to be announced. Keep an eye out for more updates as we eagerly await its launch.
