“一款值得反复体验的受苦类魂，游戏支持简体中文。游戏多数机制方面确实像魂，不论是谜语人NPC，还是一板一眼的战斗机制，以及类银河恶魔城的地图设计，还有严格的死亡惩罚，加上不能忽略的碎片化叙事，当然还有玩家谏言，另外容易错过的隐藏门等等。可这并非盐与避难所的全部，那些具有自我特色与创意的内容，似乎还反向影响着魂。这是一款仅适合非常喜欢探索，喜欢挑战自我的玩家入手。”

About This Game

A doomed sailor is shipwrecked on an uncharted island. In fog-shrouded valleys, where grinning, mossy corpses cling to rusted arms, shambling figures begin to stir. Beneath crumbling, salt-worn structures, labyrinthine passageways lead to unspeakable evil, long forgotten by man.

Salt and Sanctuary seamlessly combines fast, brutal, and complex 2D combat with richly developed RPG mechanics. Discover, craft, and upgrade over 600 weapons, armor pieces, spells, and items as you explore a cursed realm of forgotten cities, blood-soaked dungeons, desecrated monuments, and the fallen lords they once celebrated.

From Ska Studios, the award-winning indie studio behind a long list of stylistic, visceral, and brutally executed action titles that includes The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile, The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai, and Charlie Murder, comes Salt and Sanctuary, the studio’s most ambitious title to date.
