Firstly , salt and sanctuary is a game from 2016 , made by SKA Studios . It’s a RPG / Platform game wich took inspirations in the soulsborn series.

Secondly , good points :
– The game gas a nice and original graphic style
– He has a great univers and atmosphere
– The musics stick very well to the game
– Some of his mecanics are interesting
– The system of level is nice exept some little things (in tha bad point)
– There’s local multiplayer
– The money and XP are separated unlike in Dark Souls
– BLOOD , MORE BLOOD ! YES !

Thirdly , bad points :
– The game is way more punishing than a soulsborn :
Whene you die , the enemy who killed you get your salt (XP) and you need to kill him to get it back , but whene an enemy get your salt , he’s more powerfull.
– The rolls are not well programed :
only a 10th of second after begining the roll and you can get hit
– Nobody tells you where to go shortly after beginig the game
– Some mechanics don’t work very well :
you can grab the edge of platforms , sometimes he dos it automaticaly , sometimes you need to press A to climbm
– You can move a upgrade of your skill tree with gray pearls , but you cand move “classes” points (you can’t move a point that lets you wear a class 2 heavy armor for exemple)
– Hitboxes are bad with some enemy
– No recovery time , prepare to get stunlock and die a bunch of times
– Enemys and bosses SPAM some of their attacks sometimes

Lastly , I think Salt and sanctuary isn’t a well made game , but it’s a nice 2D soulsborn and deserve to be played at least once

for me , he deserve a 13/20
