Highwater

Highwater is a charming 3D adventure set in a flooded, post-apocalyptic world where players navigate a vast network of waterways by boat. The game combines exploration with a unique isometric turn-based combat system that blends tactical puzzles and environmental interactions, offering a fresh twist on traditional combat. As you journey through this melancholic yet whimsical landscape, you’ll visit diverse islands, gather resources, and recruit allies to help overcome hostile foes. The story follows Nikos, who embarks on a daring quest to escape the deteriorating Earth, traveling from the flooded sanctuary of Hightower toward the heavily fortified city of Alphaville. Along the way, you’ll face insurgents, scavenge for supplies, and confront the harsh realities of a world torn between devastated war zones and the elite strongholds of the ultra-rich. The narrative is infused with humor and a sense of camaraderie, as Nikos and his companions strive to secure passage on a rocket bound for Mars, offering a hopeful glimpse of a new beginning. Exploration is at the heart of Highwater, with players free to chart their course across a beautifully crafted environment filled with secrets and challenges. The turn-based combat encourages creative problem-solving, allowing you to use the environment to your advantage, whether by toppling trees or using makeshift cover. Complementing the experience is an original soundtrack broadcast via the in-game Highwater Pirate Radio, which provides both atmospheric tunes and narrative commentary, enriching the game’s immersive and evocative world.
