ACW, High Seas have been around some.

Just noticed Gamersgate now has Ironclads Schleswig War 1864. Comes at 13 EUR (12 at Totem - plus VAT if applicable).

Thought I'd post this as some people doubtlessly enjoy the idea of Prussian steamers whacking Danes.

The Danish government wanted to annex the duchy of Schleswig to the Danish kingdom while the Prussian government, for internal political and strategic reasons, wanted Schleswig to finally became a part of Germany.

A key element of Denmark's war strategy was the blockade of Germany's Baltic sea ports, thereby disrupting German overseas trade and hindering Prussian naval operations in support the Prussian army. The supreme commander of the Prussian army insisted that the navy attempt to breach the blockade.

Tegetthoff was in the North Sea with the Austrian Navy, this seems to be about Prussia and the Baltic only.
