Windrose

Windrose is a survival adventure set in an alternative Age of Piracy. You play as a captain who challenges Blackbeard; a story of survival and revenge draws you into a conflict among empires, pirate clans and mysterious dark powers. Explore procedurally generated biomes, build and craft, fight on land and sea, and uncover mysteries across the world.

Explore and build

Gather resources and establish a foothold in diverse biomes, building anything from simple shelters to elaborate mansions and fully developed forts. Recruit NPCs to expand your settlement and speed up harvesting and production. More than 100 hand-crafted dungeons and points of interest hold secrets and treasure, and you can trade with different factions for an advantage.

Sail and fight

Travel between ship and shore with seamless transitions. Naval battles let you choose whether to exchange cannon fire at range or close in for boarding actions. Equip and customize your ship, choosing from nimble ketches, versatile brigs and monstrous frigates. After a battle, claim your spoils and sail on with your crew.

On land, use melee weapons and firearms, including sabers, rapiers, halberds, greatswords, pistols and muskets. Parry and dodge attacks, chain strikes and find new gear. Talents, flexible loadouts and unique armor sets let you shape your combat style, while food and potions provide buffs. Face a range of enemies and challenging bosses for their treasures.

Solo and co-op

Windrose can be played solo offline or in co-op for up to 8 players, using self-hosted or dedicated servers. Procedural generation makes each journey different. For the optimal experience, parties of up to 4 players are recommended, especially in the late game.
