A Pirate's Afterlife For Me | Rogue Waters (Pirate Turn-Based Tactical Game)
Rogue Waters is a pirate themed turn-based tactical game, so expect lots of swashbuckling and cannons and people going "Yyyaaarrrr!".
Although thinking about it, there aren't that many people going "Yyyaaarrrr!", which is a bit of a shame!
We control a group of pirates in search of some sort of mystical magical treasure. Unfortunately another group are after the same thing so we have a few clashes with them. There's melee combat on the decks of ships and in rocky temples, where we have to move around the level as best we can, making use of the environment and also our characters skills.
There's also ship combat that takes place before some boarding melee action! With the ship combat we can use our cannons to take out enemy fighters or special areas of the enemy ship that give bonuses during the melee phase.
We have a little base where we can hire new crew, request ship upgrades and generally look after things before we embark on raids.
There's also a story and characters and level ups and RPG choice sections too!

BECOME THE PIRATE CAPTAIN
Set sail as Captain Cutter, a pirate caught in a deadly struggle for power and vengeance. Navigate dangerous waters, unleash mythical sea creatures, and outwit enemies as you chase legendary treasure and confront dark secrets.
Embark on a journey of loyalty, betrayal, and revenge, as you unravel the mysteries of the Sea Shepherd prophecy and face the immortal Captain Blackbone.
Use your Pirate Cave (HUB) to equip ship upgrades & crew members before each run.
Each run generates new encounters, requiring careful navigation as you work your way toward Captain Blackbone.
ASSEMBLE YOUR CREW
Recruit and grow your pirate crew, discovering their hidden potential as you lead them into battle. It's your responsibility to mold them into the legendary pirates they were destined to be.
Recruit from 6 unique classes, each with distinct abilities and playstyles for your ship’s crew.
After each run, upgrade your crew’s skills to increase their effectiveness.
Damage persists across runs, requiring you to swap out crew members to allow them time to heal.
TURN THE TIDES
Customize your naval encounters with cannons and ship artillery. Unleash powerful shots during naval combat to destroy enemy ship modules and gain the upper hand in boarding fights.
Encounters begin with Sea Battles where you can use cannons to target key areas of enemy ships.
Both your ship and the enemy's have distinct buffs that can be destroyed.
Crew members can be targeted and killed during battle, so defend your ship and crew before boarding.
THOUGHT-PROVOKING TACTICS
Experience a fresh take on turn-based tactical combat that replicates the visceral intensity of cloak-and-dagger duels. Use the environment to gain the upper hand like never before.
The boarding phase involves hand-to-hand combat where your crew faces off against enemies.
Use your crew's unique abilities to maneuver and pin enemies against obstacles for fatal damage.
Leverage the environment by pushing enemies into spikes, grabbing one-time weapons, or swinging into position with ropes.
SUMMON CREATURES FROM THE DEEP
Legendary sea creatures, once thought to be myths, roam the oceans of Rogue Waters. Free them from captivity and gain their trust to summon them in battle.
Summon 3 sea monsters to assist in the boarding phase:
The Kraken crushes nearby enemies.
The Mermaid disrupts and pushes enemies in any direction.
The Giant Snail drops a deadly spiked obstacle on the deck.
A ROGUE-LITE PIRATE ADVENTURE
Each run resets your equipment and items, but unlocks permanent upgrades for your crew, ship, and Captain Cutter, allowing you to grow stronger with every battle.
Items and upgrades reset between each run:
Personal items (character equipment): additional weapons, attack modifiers, and side upgrades for abilities.
Shipboard weapons (cannons and similar items): each new run begins with a usable, basic starter set.
Ship modules reset as well.
