How co-op works
Two Inquisitors share the full campaign locally or online, exploring regions and pursuing roaming Mages together. They split enemy aggro, coordinate dodges and healing, then craft distinct weapons, armor, and runic arts from Mage remains; drop-in quickplay and faction PvP are separate options.
About this game
Salt and Sacrifice is a 2D Soulslike action RPG where you play as a Marked Inquisitor hunting corrupted mages across a crumbling kingdom.

Combat demands precise timing and careful resource management as you dodge, block, and counter enemy attacks. You craft weapons and armor from the remains of defeated mages, each offering unique movesets and build possibilities. Co-op shines during boss encounters, where coordinating aggro and recognizing attack patterns becomes critical to survival.
You can play online or on the same screen with split-screen and single-screen local co-op options, plus cross-platform multiplayer support. Sessions reward communication and patience, especially when hunting unpredictable mage bosses that can shift the battlefield mid-fight.
