(1min read)

Salt and Sanctuary is a tough 2D Metroidvania-Soulslike game which is a love letter to everything we know and love from the Souls series of games.

Pros

  • Environments, enemies and bosses are numerous and diverse.
  • Gameplay is fair but tough and encourages the player to min-max and fully explore the environments.
  • Many different builds are viable, allowing the player to play the character they want to play.
  • Difficulty can be tweaked to the player’s preference by playing non-optimal builds.
  • Great replay value (New Game+ and playing with different builds).
  • Fashion Souls.

Cons

  • The art style, like a fine wine, is an acquired taste.
  • No map of any kind means that early on, you will get lost a lot.
