About the Game

Santa Elena is a real-time turn-based RPG where you control Elena, the Ruined, in an relentless revolution against the oppressive Duke of Monte Branco.

Each battle is a marathon against hundreds of enemies, so Elena must manage her resources and keep her allies healthy to match the relentless pace of war.

Every feeling and every memory leaves data imprints floating unseen. Elena's implant lets her harvest this psychic static and weaponize it. Her Truth Made Manifest.

Through the art of Somatism, she can trace arcane symbols, tap into the stream of past whispers lingering in the air, and manifest them physically in battle, in an original magic system that favors player creativity and mastery of dozens of possible incantations.

Santa Elena is a story about the human element of a revolution. Meet the game's iconic characters as the scale of conflict reaches irredeemable proportions. What is Elena willing to sacrifice in the name of her cause?
