Salt Chapel is a dark roguelite deckbuilder about a small boat, a doomed coast, and the strange souls willing to sail beyond it.
Recruit a crew in the chapel, set out across a hand-drawn sea map, and face storms, omens, and monstrous things that should have remained below. Your deck is not built from generic cards: it is built from your sailors. Every crew member brings their own skills, cards, blessings, and burdens. Who you take aboard defines how you fight, what risks you can survive, and what kind of voyage this becomes.
Battles are tense card-based encounters where prayer, steel, fear, and resolve collide. Strike enemies, guard your crew, heal the wounded, and manage the growing dread before the sea claims everyone.
Each foe has its hymn. Every battle is Black Metal.
Key Features:
- Recruit a crew of distinct sailors, each with unique cards and traits.
- Build your deck from the people you bring aboard.
- Navigate a branching sea route filled with danger and strange landmarks.
- Fight stylized card battles against eerie coastal horrors.
- Manage crew health, dread, guard, and resolve.
- Return to port changed, or do not return at all.
- A grim black-and-white visual style inspired by old prints, dirty paper, and sacred horror.
