Salt and Sanctuary

Salt and Sanctuary brings Soulslike combat and progression into a grim 2D side-scrolling world of castles, crypts, and coastal ruins. You explore interconnected areas, learn enemy patterns, collect gear, and build a character around weapons, magic, or heavier defensive play. Its hand-drawn style is bleak and strange, and the challenge comes from careful spacing, stamina management, and knowing when to retreat. It is a strong pick for players who enjoy methodical action RPGs with opaque lore and rewarding exploration.
