I found myself drawn to Dandara and intrigued by the lore of Salt and the stories of its inhabitants. The Jean Claude PanDamme had JUST started in earnest and, like many of you, my video-game-hours-played-per-day stat was steadily increasing.

I first played Dandara: Trials of Fear back in March of 2020. If you have the base game then this is free to download and adds 3 new areas to explore, a new big boss, new powers and mechanics, new music tracks, a new secret ending (shhh), as well as many quality of life updates.ĪND – even though the Steam Autumn sale ended two days ago I pulled a few strings and was able to extend the discount for Dandara: Trials of Fear on Steam through this weekend at 77% off! The discount starts today at 10am PST until Dec 8th.

… You might not know that an update was released last year – the Trials of Fear. The titular heroine – named after a real 17 th century Brazilian freedom fighter Dandara dos Palmares – leaps fluidly across floors, walls, and ceilings alike, unhindered by gravity, as she explores the beautiful, pixelated environments of Salt, uncovering its secrets and fighting for its freedom. … You need to know that this is a much beloved 2D Metroidvania platformer by Brazilian developer Long Hat House. Dandara: Trials of Fear+ launches on Apple Arcade today! – there’s a free trial! – and I couldn’t be happier for the excuse to jump back into the world of Salt, back into the shoes of Dandara as she fights against oppression to bring freedom and balance back to the directionless world of Salt.
