    Even though Salt and Sanctuary is better, this Salt and Sanctuary is not bad. Play it with a friend to improve the joy.

    Ska Studios' sequel to Salt and Sanctuary offers a wonderful suite of combat customisation, but some shallow storytelling holds it back.

    Salt and Sanctuary, albeit imperfect, was a small gem and became a classic for soulslike fans. This game is garbage! Instead of releasing aSalt and Sanctuary, albeit imperfect, was a small gem and became a classic for soulslike fans. This game is garbage! Instead of releasing a cleaner, more polished version of its amazing predecessor, this game has all the flaws of Sanctuary and adds on top a ton of new flaws! Souls like does NOT mean that everything has to be frustrating. Sacrifice is not fun, at all, it’s just frustration, poorly designed mechanics, absurd damage output, chaos and imbalance. Such a wasted opportunity Full Review »
