[PRESS RELEASE]

Legends of Callasia is back on Kickstarter and goes to Steam Greenlight!

Join the BETA of this cross-platform world conquest multiplayer title inspired by board games and epic strategy video games

December 14, 2015 – Southeast Asian virtual game studio Boomzap Entertainment launches its Kickstarter campaign for Legends of Callasia, a cross-platform fantasy world conquest game with board game-style mechanics and no hotseat waiting. Beta access is open to all as part of the Kickstarter, and a Greenlight campaign on Steam is also ongoing.

Legends of Callasia (formerly known as Legends of Fire & Steel) is a simultaneous turn-based single and multiplayer fantasy world conquest strategy game with no hotseat waiting. Choose from a wide range of heroes from three factions – The Hundred Kingdoms, The Faeborne, and The Revenant – and conquer lands through single player campaigns, or battle against friends through online multiplayer in board game-style maps. Use bonus cards against your enemies or boost your armies and rule the world!

Features:

  • Classic fantasy world conquest strategy game with simple, intuitive controls
  • Endless strategies through wide range of heroes, units, maps, and more
  • Auto-resolve battle mode with two attack phases: missile and melee
  • Single player campaigns: follow the war of the factions across the lands
  • Turn-based multiplayer game with simultaneous plan and resolution cycle: ranked and casual play, friend finder, rankings, leaderboards, and no hotseat waiting
  • Pay once and play: no free to play, no ads, no pay to win

The game is designed to be playable on PC, Mac, iPad, and Android tablets. Boomzap co-founder and Creative Director Chris Natsuume says, “Our hope is to make a mid-core casual game that captures some of the fun of more epic strategy games like Civilization, Crusader Kings, or Heroes of Might and Magic, but in a much smaller, more digestible, 1 hour play session.”

Known for casual games, Boomzap is now making its entry to the strategy games market and is hoping to build a multiplayer community on Steam. Funding through Kickstarter would also help in completing development of the game, set to release in early 2016.

Make Legends of Callasia a reality by backing their project on Kickstarter and rating the game on Steam Greenlight. The team is asking for support in spreading the news in order to reach their funding goal of $25,000USD. Pledges start at $1USD, and rewards such as early release copies, digital artbooks, and customized in-game content are available to the backers.

Open Beta, Kickstarter, and Greenlight now LIVE!

Legends of Callasia is now live on Kickstarter and Steam Greenlight!

BETA access to the game is open to all as part of the Kickstarter. We hope you can support us! It would help us a lot if you can pledge and vote, and share the links to your friends in order to get the word out to more people (which means more players to play multiplayer with) and make this game a reality.

Thank you very much!


New game name: Legends of Callasia

Yes, that’s right. We’ve renamed Legends of Fire & Steel to Legends of Callasia! Why’s that? The old title was longer, a bit generic, and most of the time confused people (especially fans of a series with Ice and Fire in the title – admit it, you’re one of them!)

The game has always been set in the world of Callasia, and we thought changing the title would be able to communicate this better. Legends of Callasia is also shorter and more unique. And with the new name comes a new logo!

We’re also working on a new icon and we need your help – which icon do you like best?
