Set up by us
Runs under Wine rather than a native Linux build, so we build it by hand and check it before handing it over.
Order it like any other server. One of us sets it up, checks it, and hands over the same console, files and backups every server gets.
What it is
Windrose is an upcoming survival video game developed by Kraken Express and published by Pocketpair. It was released in early access on April 14, 2026.

Sized for Windrose.
Fight on land and sea, build, craft and dig into a world with some dark secrets. Eight players, invite code only, which is the whole idea here.

The solid bar is the smallest plan that runs Windrose. Faded bars run it with room to spare. Greyed plans sit outside its range. Player counts are what the plan carries, not a benchmark of this game.
How busy it is
Windrose against the other survival games.
Peak concurrent players on Steam, measured rather than estimated. Bars are to scale against each other, so a game almost nobody plays looks like one.

What players say
Windrose, in the words of people who play it.
Three reviews from Steam, picked by how many other players found them helpful. About the game, not about us, unedited, and linked so you can check.
Went into this thinking it was a offbrand pirate game, one of the best overall games i have played in a while. perfect combat, really good naval combat, and a super fun survival aspect that always keeps you grinding. absolutely worth the $30, i would honestly pay double
