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

Set a Watch: A Campfire Defense Strategy Puzzler is Coming Soon to Mobile

Set a Watch, a dice-rolling, campfire-defense strategy puzzler, is soon arriving on iOS and Android. This game challenges you to protect your precious campfire from relentless waves of monsters. Originally a board game, Set a Watch brings its fully fleshed-out mechanics and more to mobile devices.

While adventuring often focuses on the thrill of combat, Set a Watch highlights the crucial downtime between battles—a time often overlooked. Experienced tabletop RPG players will instantly recognize the scenario: after a grueling adventure, your weary party finally rests, only to be ambushed by unforeseen threats emerging from the shadows.

That's the core of Set a Watch. Born as a board game, it now arrives digitally on Steam, iOS, and Android. You'll face wave after wave of enemies determined to extinguish your campfire. The time between waves is critical for preparation and strategy.

Choose from six unique heroes, assemble your party, and roll the dice. Use your dice results to solve puzzles and, of course, fend off the monstrous attacks.

The Rewards of a Well-Earned Rest

Set a Watch cleverly transforms the simple concept of adventurers resting into a compelling blend of tower defense, strategy, puzzle-solving, and RPG elements. It masterfully captures the feeling of a prolonged, desperate struggle against relentless forest creatures.

While a Steam page exists, iOS and Android release dates are currently unavailable. However, we'll be keeping a close eye on Set a Watch to provide updates as soon as they're available.
