Current Events > Do you miss Dark Souls? Have you tried Salt & Sanctuary?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm about 5.5 hours into this game and I really enjoy it. It is most definitely a 2d Dark Souls-type game but it has its own flavor.

The initial 3 hours did not impress me much but as the game progresses its beautiful intricacies shine through. I recommend it.

Is it similar to Hollow Knight?

I just beat Hollow Knight before I got this! You came to the right place.

Hollow Knight is great in its own right.

Salt and Sanctuary is great in its Ode to Dark Souls. There is a lot to explore and I love how they were able to develop it using 2D physics. It has a lot of the elements you like about Dark Souls...bonfires to rest at, a connected world, difficult enemies, various rings to wear, attention to stamina, soul (salt) farming...etc

But it's different than Hollow Knight because this game definitely feels more like Dark Souls.

Would have got Salt and Sanctuary if the local co-op setup wasn't so stupid

I always get lost in S&S and give up. I can only look for an entry point to a new area for soo long. And it's hard as fuck to look up since it's so open

I really disliked it. It's one of the ugliest games I've played this gen, to the point where stuff like enemies and booby traps were blending in to the blurry brown environments they had in every area. It didn't help that the character models looked like something from a 2000s newgrounds flash game either.
