Adventuring isn't just about battling horrific creatures; it's also about the crucial moments of rest between these intense encounters. For tabletop RPG enthusiasts, those moments of respite can quickly turn into another fight for survival as new threats emerge from the shadows. This is precisely the experience that Set A Watch aims to capture and bring to life in a new digital format.
Originally a board game, Set A Watch is now making its way to mobile platforms, including iOS and Android, as well as Steam. This innovative game challenges players to keep their campfire burning amidst relentless waves of monsters. The core gameplay revolves around preparing for these attacks during the intervals between waves, where players select from six unique heroes to form their party and utilize dice rolls to address various challenges and combat foes.
**You gain the benefits of a long rest**
Set A Watch transforms the concept of a long rest into a strategic, puzzle-filled RPG that feels like a pseudo tower defense game. It encapsulates the tension and strategy of surviving an extended battle against forest-dwelling creatures, making every decision critical to your party's survival.
Although a Steam page is already up, specific release dates and listings for iOS and Android are yet to be announced. Keep an eye out for more updates on Set A Watch as we approach its launch.
