What Down The Drone does on Apple Watch
The watchOS version specifically — what it is built around and what it does differently from the other versions.
The AR shooting happens on the iPhone — a watch has no camera to see your room with. What the Apple Watch app brings is the radar: the green scope from the corner of the iPhone screen, full size on your wrist, with you at the centre and every drone shown as a blip around you.
In an AR game the threats are all around you, not just in front of the screen. A glance at the wrist tells you which way to turn before a drone closes in from behind.
The watch app is included with the iPhone game. There is nothing separate to buy; install Down The Drone on the iPhone and add the watch app from the Watch app on your iPhone.
On Apple Watch you get

- Same game, second screen. The radar from the iPhone HUD, readable at a glance.
- Included, not extra. Ships with the free iPhone download; no separate purchase.
