While adventuring is often associated with battling terrifying creatures, the quieter moments between these intense encounters are equally crucial. For tabletop RPG enthusiasts, those moments of respite can quickly turn perilous when unexpected threats emerge from the shadows. This is the essence captured by Set A Watch, a captivating dice-rolling campfire-defense strategy game that is making its way to digital platforms.

Originally a board game, Set A Watch is now set to launch on Steam, iOS, and Android, offering players a unique challenge: keeping a campfire burning amidst waves of menacing monsters. The game masterfully blends strategy, puzzling, and RPG elements, transforming the simple concept of a long rest into a thrilling survival experience against the lurking dangers of the forest.

In Set A Watch, you'll choose from six unique heroes to form your party, using dice rolls to strategize and fend off the relentless onslaught of enemies. Each lull between attacks becomes a crucial period of preparation for the next wave, adding layers of depth to the gameplay.
