March 2025
After I bought Keep Driving by YCJY Games,decided to support developers team by purchasing all their games in deluxe edition and I am extremely happy by my choice. Sea Salt is an atmospheric blend of horror and strategy,with a recognizable visual style that immediately grabs you.The dark art by Josef Martinovsky is heavily inspired by Mike Mignola,gives the game a moody, gothic feel that perfectly complements its eerie Lovecraftian aesthetics. Controlling a swarm of eldritch horrors to wipe out humanity is both unique and incredibly satisfying. The main musical theme perfectly fits into the game.Setting the perfect tone for the creeping dread that unfolds. Despite the grim setting,the amusing, garbled voices of the NPCs add an unexpected charm and fun,lol.If you enjoy dark aesthetics,strategic gameplay,and a bit of cosmic terror (with a touch of humor), this game is definitely a MUST-PLAY!

Surprisingly boring game. No complaints about the setting, no complaints about the atmosphere, no complaints about the graphics, but after half an hour the charm of the dark Lovecraftian universe disappears and only dull, casual gameplay remains in the form of a crowd of minions following the player's pentagram (WASD). You can attack with them, you can dodge projectiles with them, you can do nothing with them, that's all. Sometimes the minions, in their boundless hatred of civilization, begin to gnaw nearby barrels instead of enemies.

Personally, it just genuinely makes me upset. Yes, you pick your fights and everything, tactics and strategy are required, but the actual setup is all so slow, and some cutscenes just aren't able to be skipped sometimes, like the display of a new enemy. This makes the pace of the game quite bad. Other than that though, it's VERY solid with everything else. The quality of life and some gameplay is just the problem, like the cultists targetting walls instead of enemies (therefore requiring you to clear the walls out first, which means, screw up an encounter later in the room? Need to sit through that process again, yay!), or the swarm alerting literally every other encounter in the room immediately. Restart after restart - I'm not complaining about its difficulty, I'd just like it to all go smoother and faster, instead of needing to do steps one through whatever again with every fail.

Simple but fun gameplay and a solid lovecraftian aesthetic with a simple but good story.

warlock1, Ember Unbound and other keep writing 'I want to give this game a good review' and then proceed to shit on it. Well maybe f'ing give a good review you t****? Game is dirt cheap, cheaper than a Starbucks coffee that provides a a lot of enjoyment minus to some issue a kin to perhaps getting not the best coffee in set Starbucks analogy. What I am trying to say, you are cancer on the review ecosystem. Thumbs up for a good game an buuuu for all the haters.
