Set a Watch Opens Pre-Registration for 2024 Release

• Survive across nine locations to stop the awakening of the Unhallowed
• Every action you take depends on the outcome of your dice rolls
• Assemble a formidable team by choosing from six distinct heroes

Initially unveiled in March, Set a Watch: Digital Edition is now available for pre-registration on iOS and Android. This faithful adaptation of the modern board game lets you build your squad and prepare for battle. If you enjoy tactical dice-based systems and roguelike decision-making over mindless button-mashing, this dungeon crawler could be right up your alley.

In Set a Watch, your goal is to endure nine locations and prevent the Unhallowed from rising. You'll face waves of monsters with a squad of diverse heroes, each possessing unique abilities. However, every action—whether attacking, casting spells, or preparing for upcoming threats—is dictated by your dice roll. The outcome of your rolls can determine the success or failure of your entire run.

Each round starts with a dice roll, requiring you to carefully evaluate your choices. Should you scout ahead to see what lies in wait, heal a teammate, or light the campfire to gain an advantage in the darkness? Poor timing or mismanagement of your dice could leave you overrun by creatures hiding just outside the fire's glow.

Your roster includes six heroes to choose from, and selecting the right combination is crucial for survival. You'll need to consider a range of attributes, from raw strength and magical cunning to woodland allies and divine safeguards. With over 20 different locations, rotating monster abilities, and 30 adventurer powers at play, there's ample opportunity for both chaos and clever strategic planning.

While you wait, take a look at this list of the best strategy games to play on iOS right now!
