    Interesting, the S&S games have been on my list for a while but I’ve never gotten around to them. I got Salt and Sacrifice with a Humble Bundle last year but didn’t play it because o figured I should play the first game first. Looks like I got the worse one then?

      The nice thing is that Salt and Sanctuary is always dirt cheap during sales, and definitely worth picking up, but yeah, I think most people prefer the first game to the second.

      If you don’t mind investing a couple more dollars, I’d definitely recommend playing Sanctuary first, and then Sacrifice if you have a hankering for more. I replay Salt and Sanctuary pretty much every year - it might be my favorite 2D metroidvania.

      Then again, there are the rare reviewers who prefer Sacrifice, so shrug emoji.
