About Rogue Waters

✦ AI summary

Rogue Waters is a roguelike tactical adventure where you captain a pirate ship through procedurally-generated waters, commanding a crew across ship-to-ship naval battles and hand-to-hand boarding combat while hunting legendary treasure and mythical sea creatures. Each run resets your loadout but permanently upgrades your crew and ship, blending strategic turn-based combat with dynamic environment interactions as you work toward confronting the immortal Captain Blackbone.

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.
  • Enjoy a rich, story-driven adventure across 3 acts, with endless replayability.

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.

EVER-CHANGING LAND AND SEA

Face new challenges as the game world shifts procedurally with each run, offering fresh secrets, combat scenarios, and treasures to discover.
  • Encounters feature diverse pirate factions and enemy types—choose your battles wisely.
  • Your crew will engage enemies on ships and land alike.
  • Visit shops to heal, upgrade crew, buy cannons, and repair your ship.
  • You can extort shops for loot, but it’ll lead to a fight.

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.
  • Each run permanently increases your progress:
    • Unlock skill trees for crew members and Captain Cutter.
    • Acquire ship and port facility upgrades in the Pirate Cave (HUB).

    It's a fun SRPG with a minigame which determines some difficulty of the SRPG action with a slay the spire map to go down as a roguelike. Pros: Refreshing SRPG action with movement. You hit your opponent into things and it deals damage that ignores armor. This is a newer mechanic to me which is why I found this game refreshing and primarily why I recommend it. Diffiiculty isn't too bad either, though admittedly I have not tried the harder difficulties. (Max Heroic 2, like Ascension 2.) I also enjoyed the pirate immersion. Cons: Another game where you choose your words but I haven't seen an impact on the story line. Buggy. sometimes you have to undo to get your attack button to work. Or sometimes you'll get some movement you undid after trying to do the undo. One time my PC crashed and I lost my save data, so I recommend backing it up. I have also searched the internet and I am not the only one with this issue. I believe this is found in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\LocalLow\Ice Code Games\RogueWaters or wherever you have your steam stuff located. Honestly probably closer to a 20 hour playtime for the story, since I basically played this game twice. Personal grievances: all …

    Not bad, was surprised it was fun, kept me coming back.

    It's a darn shame. I really liked this game! I liked the loop, the difficulty and the progression but it has too many game breaking bugs. The worst one at the moment is that Stunned ENEMIES cannot be targeted. You effectivley just gave a mob imminity until its next turn. At higher difficulty levels armour is a huge problem to get through and half of the items that help mitigate it don't work. They just assume nothing is a valid target. Until the developers actually fix all of the stuff they broke stay the hell away from this one.
    Recommended Sep 3, 2026
    enjoyable 20 hrs, thats about it. forgiving and takes a bit to find whats optimum, but once you get a solid understanding of the chess like mechanics it becomes pretty straight forward.
