Our take on Sea Salt
The defining choice is controlling the entire swarm as one force, sending it forward to attack or pulling it back from enemy defenses.
What is Sea Salt?
Play as Dagon, an Old God who sends a growing horde of minions onto human lands for revenge.
Direct the swarm together to attack enemies or pull back from their defenses. Use the terrain to spring surprises and surround targets, building fear among them. A hellish tarot offers cards that unlock 16 units, each with different strengths and weaknesses. Hunters and special bosses stand in the way as the horde advances. The story centers on humans who turned away from their faith when asked to pay what they owed, including a bishop who defied the Old God.
