About
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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).

Bugged and really repetitive, not worth the money or the time :(
Good concept, not elaborate enough to be fun. Theme and mecanics are interesting, but the game cruelly lack depth and is highly repetitive.
Complètement bugger de partout j'ai fini par passé en mode facile pour finir l'histoire pour abrégé le calvaire.
I like the idea, but it's impossible to play. At a ponit I can only controle the mates not the carecters.
Game is fun, gets a bit repetitive around 15 hour mark, at least it did for me, but it's buggy like crazy.
——记录:《Rogue Waters / 恶棍水域》,May 2026 Humble Choice月包,2026/05/06入。 ——海盗题材回合制战术肉鸽,主打「远程海战炮击 + 甲板接舷战」双阶段战斗,搭配船员养成、永久升级与三幕复仇剧情。核心战斗机制有新意、战术深度充足,海盗氛围纯正,是近年肉鸽品类里完成度不错的题材向作品。 ——综合评分:7.4/10 ——背景&剧情 玩家扮演海盗船长卡特,曾是传奇海盗黑骨船长的得力副手。在一场背叛中,卡特被黑骨夺走一切、沉入深海,却因海洋守护者的古老预言获得了不死之身。 重生之后,卡特集结杂牌船员、驾着破船重返诅咒海域,在程序生成的危险航路上一路追查黑骨的踪迹,揭开海牧人预言的真相,最终向不死的宿敌完成复仇。 剧情分为三幕推进,沿途穿插船员个人故事、岛屿奇遇与神话伏笔,整体是标准的海盗复仇爽文路子,没有过于复杂的反转,但叙事完整度在肉鸽游戏里属于中上水平。沿途的选择会影响船员好感、资源获取与分支事件,一定程度上丰富了单局的变数。 ——玩法&特色 1.船员养成与职业系统:开局可从 6 种职业中招募船员,分别对应战士、枪手、医师、炮手、斥候、水手长,各有专属技能树与定位。每局冒险中船员会随机获得不同天赋,局外可在海盗洞穴基地解锁永久升级,强化职业基础属性与通用技能。特别的是,船员伤害会跨局继承,重伤的船员下一局无法直接出战,需要轮换替补休整,强制要求玩家培养多套阵容,不能靠一队莽到底。 2.肉鸽探索&事件抉择:每局航行都是程序生成的海域地图,沿途分布着敌舰、宝藏岛、神秘事件、商人港口与 BOSS 据点。选择不同航线会遇到完全不同的遭遇,可能捡到强力装备、触发船员剧情、召唤神话海怪助阵,也可能遭遇风暴损失物资。 和多数肉鸽一样,死亡即清空本局所有临时资源,但会积累永久升级货币,让下一局开局更强,挫败感控制得比较适中。 3.海怪召唤与舰船升级:冒险途中可解锁克拉肯、塞壬等神话海怪,战斗中可召唤释放大范围必杀,视觉冲击力与战术价值兼备;舰船本身也可在局内局外双重升级,强化护甲、火力、速度与载货量,自由度比较充足。 4.双阶段战斗:最核心的特色设计,每场战斗都分为两个阶段。 第一阶段:海上炮战,双方舰船在海面走位对轰。 第二阶段:接舷网格战,敌舰血量降到阈值后触发接舷,视角切换为等距网格回合制战斗。 海战 + 接舷战的组合跳出了传统回合制战术的框架,远程削弱、近战收割的节奏富有层次。网格战中的推击、地形杀、技能组合有不少操作空间,不同职业搭配能玩出完全不同的打法,策略性在同价位肉鸽里属于第一梯队。 ——题材与玩法结合得比较好的战术肉鸽,双阶段战斗是最大亮点,海盗氛围与剧情完成度也超出预期。推荐喜欢回合制战术游戏、偏爱海盗题材的玩家。26/07/20
This thing is STUPID!!! Where's the pirating? It's all stupid overhead strategy sh_t! Very disappointed and disgusted.
108块钱这个游戏我都不会看一眼,35.64买这个游戏我得考虑考虑,但是4块钱的key我犹豫一秒就是对它的不尊重
Сохранения каждый шаг, нельзя переиграть бой целиком и в принципе нельзя перзагружать игру, то есть нельзя ошибаться, что развлечение очень на любителя.
Plays like a kind of Battle Chess with a cartoonish Sid Meier's Pirates feel. Lot of fun!
