management, now is the perfect time to grab both games before the offer

Rogue Waters
Rogue Waters is a tactical turn-based roguelite that plunges players into a pirate-themed world of revenge and supernatural curses. You take command of a pirate captain and his ragtag crew, sailing through procedurally generated encounters while seeking vengeance against an immortal adversary. The game blends naval cannon duels with grid-based boarding combat, where positioning and environmental tactics—like shoving enemies into spikes—play a crucial role.
- Genre: Turn-based tactics / Roguelite strategy
- Key Gameplay Traits: Ship-to-ship cannon battles, hand-to-hand boarding combat, procedurally generated runs, crew management with persistent upgrades, summonable sea creatures (Kraken, Mermaid, Giant Snail), and a hub-based progression system.
Songs of Conquest
Songs of Conquest is a turn-based strategy game that pays homage to 90s classics like Heroes of Might and Magic III. Players choose from four unique factions—Arleon, Rana, Loth, and Barya—and lead powerful magicians called Wielders across fantasy landscapes. The experience combines kingdom management, resource gathering, army recruitment, and tactical combat on separate battle screens. The game also features a full campaign with choral storytelling, multiplayer options, and an in-game map editor.
- Genre: Turn-based strategy / 4X-lite
- Key Gameplay Traits: Empire building, turn-based tactical battles, hero units (Wielders), four distinct factions, single-player campaigns, co-op and online multiplayer, and mod support via an included map editor.
