About the game
Watcher of Realms is a fantasy RPG and tower defense game where players collect and upgrade heroes to defend against waves of monsters. The gameplay involves a mix of strategic hero placement, similar to tower defense, with traditional RPG elements like leveling up characters, collecting gear, and completing various game modes such as dungeons, boss fights, and PvP.
Gameplay and mechanics
Hybrid genre: Combines elements of RPGs and tower defense. You place heroes to defend a "crystal" rather than having them form a static line, requiring strategic positioning.
Hero collection: Collect and upgrade over 100 unique heroes from different races and factions.
Progression: Strengthen heroes by leveling them up, and equipping them with gear, artifacts, and skill dust.
Resource management: Obtain resources from stages and dungeons, but some players note that the game can become more difficult, encouraging in-app purchases to speed up progress.
Game modes: Includes a campaign, guild boss battles, PvP, and other content designed to help you build a more powerful roster.
World and story
Setting: The game is set in the fantasy land of Tya, which includes diverse locations like deserts, dungeons, and mountains.
Story: Features a rich storyline with epic lore for its factions and heroes to provide an immersive experience.
Other points
Graphics: Praised for high-quality, realistic, and detailed 3D models.
Monetization: It is a free-to-play game with in-game purchases, and some players report the game's difficulty spikes significantly after the initial stages to encourage spending.
Gacha elements: Involves summoning heroes, a common mechanic in mobile RPGs. Some players have reported issues with the drop rates and a controversial "rigged" summoning system, which the developers acknowledged as a bug at one point.
