Adventuring often conjures images of slashing through hordes of monsters, but what about the crucial moments of rest in between? That's where Set A Watch steps in, a unique dice-rolling campfire-defense strategy puzzler that's coming soon to iOS and Android. This game challenges you to keep your campfire burning amidst relentless waves of monsters, transforming the concept of a long rest into an engaging tactical experience.

Originally a board game, Set A Watch brings its fully fleshed-out mechanics to the digital realm, also available on Steam. The gameplay revolves around defending your campfire from enemies intent on extinguishing your flame. Between waves, you'll strategize and prepare for the next onslaught, adding depth to what might otherwise be downtime.

In Set A Watch, you'll choose from six distinctive heroes, assemble your party, and roll dice to solve various challenges and fend off the creatures lurking in the dark. This innovative approach creates a pseudo tower defense, strategy, and puzzle RPG that captures the tension of surviving an extended battle in the wilderness.
