Calame

In Westalia, renown is more than a story: it is a force. When enough people believe in a legend, that belief can elevate a cause, transform a battle - or devour those who feed on it. The King of Light built his reign on that power. The Rebellion will have to learn how to wield it without becoming what it fights.

But the Rebellion is not united.

On one side, Kenmare fights to free the people. On the other, the Panthers fight to reclaim the throne. Their alliance is necessary. Their visions of the future are irreconcilable.

Calame is a single-player turn-based isometric tactical RPG where you lead these two opposed camps against the King of Light. Across battles, camp scenes, and decisive events, your choices write the Rebellion’s Chronicle, shift its alignment, transform your army bonuses, and determine what your victory will leave behind.

- Turn the Legend into a rare tactical resource: alter battlefield elements, overturn a critical situation, and decide which version of the war will remain in the Chronicle.

- Lead Kenmare and the Panthers, two rival factions forced to fight side by side despite incompatible visions of the future.

- Make decisions in battle and at camp that alter the story, future missions, relationships, and the Rebellion’s reputation.

- Turn renown into power: your alignment unlocks passive bonuses that change your overall stats, ideal party composition, and squad playstyle.

- Master handcrafted tactical battles built around positioning, facing, counterattacks, Action Points, Overdrives, and terrain effects.

ALTER THE BATTLEFIELD THROUGH LEGEND

Your Rebellion exists not only through what it does, but through what the world says about it. Every victory, sacrifice, and choice feeds the Chronicle, then shapes how the people perceive your cause.

In battle, that renown can become a rare resource. Use it to alter the scene itself: open a passage, collapse a bridge, ignite a brazier, move an obstacle, or cut off reinforcements.

When a strategy collapses, rare interventions can also give you a chance to reclaim a crucial moment - as long as you accept the version that follows.

This is not just spectacle. It is a tactical choice, a narrative risk, and a way to decide which legend will survive the war.

TWO VISIONS. ONE REBELLION.

The Kenmare Column and the Panthers do not fight for the same future. One wants to free the people. The other wants to reclaim the kingdom. You lead both forces, arbitrate their tensions, and decide which vision will ultimately define the Rebellion.

Their alliance is a military necessity, not an ideological peace. Every choice can strengthen one vision, fracture the other, or try to hold together a cause that may break before victory is even won.

CHOICES WITH LASTING CONSEQUENCES

In Calame, major decisions are not limited to dialogue. Some happen at camp, when the alliance starts to crack. Others erupt in the middle of battle, when you must rescue, sacrifice, hold back, or strike harder.

Every decisive event leaves a mark on the Rebellion’s Chronicle. The world reacts to what you protected, abandoned, or imposed. Your companions take sides. Future missions, relationships, and political consequences shift according to the way you wage the war.

BUILD YOUR ARMY THROUGH RENOWN

In Westalia, what people believe can elevate a cause - or devour those who carry it. Your reputation is therefore more than a narrative marker: it becomes a force that changes your army.

Lean toward Kenmare to strengthen resilience, healing, defense, and long-term growth. Lean toward the Panthers to favor aggression, critical hits, mobility, and offensive pressure. Your narrative choices therefore influence your passive bonuses, overall stats, and the best way to approach each battle.

MASTER DEEP TACTICAL COMBAT

Every map is handcrafted around distinct objectives, constraints, and combat situations. Look for back attacks, protect your flanks, exploit terrain effects, manage your Action Points, manipulate turn order, and unleash Overdrives powerful enough to swing an encounter.

The Legend adds another layer of decision-making: when to intervene, which element to alter, what risk to accept, and which version of the battle you are willing to leave in history.

LEAD 15 UNIQUE HEROES TOWARD THE SAME CAUSE

Recruit up to 15 playable characters, each with a signature weapon, exclusive skills, a unique Overdrive, and archetype evolutions. Their beliefs, affinities, and ties to Kenmare or the Panthers do not only feed the narrative: they also shape combat synergies, camp scenes, and the balance of your army.

A VICTORY THAT HAS A PRICE

The King of Light must fall. But the real question lies elsewhere: what will the Rebellion become when victory is finally within reach?

Chapter after chapter, the same war can lead to different political and human outcomes. Your choices will decide not only who wins, but what your cause is willing to become in order to win.

BASED ON PAUL BEORN’S DUOLOGY

Calame brings Paul Beorn’s world into a tactical RPG where renown, collective belief, and storytelling become forces of war. The novels explore the price of revolutions, the destructive power of legend, and what victory does to those who pursue it.
