It's always one step behind. The Watchtower is right behind you, and the moment you slow down, it catches up. Watchtower Run is an endless chase through city streets, forest trails, and shopping malls. Dodge obstacles, grab power-ups, and keep moving. - Three hand-drawn worlds, each with its own hazards - A roster of characters, each with a unique ability - Endless mode, daily runs, and unlockable tower skins - A blueprint art style unlike anything else out there Watchtower Run is really a game about social anxiety: that feeling that something is always right behind you, ready to catch up the second you let your guard down. It started as an inside joke about a tall friend who always ended up behind the group, and grew into something a little more honest. Don't let it through.
