Rogue Waters is a tactical turn-based rogue-lite set in a pirate world overtaken by a terrible curse.

Gather your ragtag crew of rogues and grow them into fierce pirates. Befriend and call upon legendary creatures of sailors' myths.

Chart your course through an ever-changing game world, and turn the tides of battle on land or sea in a fresh take on tactical turn-based combat.

The crew and the Kraken await your command–will ye heed the call?

"Bringing Rogue Waters to life has been a real adventure," said Mateusz Pilski, Vice President of Development at Ice Code Games. "Our goal in creating games is always to contribute to the genre in ways that bring players more satisfaction and fun in tackling tactical challenges. Dynamic melee combat which recreates the dance-like fencing bouts of boarding actions, combines immersion with thoughtful planning."

“The Tripwire Presents team is thrilled to introduce the world to developer Ice Code Games' Rogue Waters," said Bryan West, Publishing Production Director at Tripwire Presents. "It's fantastic being able to take control of an immortal, undead pirate as the protagonist of a turn-based, roguelite game. We can't wait for players to get their hands on Rogue Waters and explore the world of betrayal, plunder, mystical forces, swashbuckling action, tactical cannon-fire, and ultimately revenge."
