Save or Salt is a 2 player table-top strategy game with cute plants, guns, unpredictable weather, and lots of salt.
In this neighborhood, it's salt or be salted. You and your neighbor's gardens have been unexpectedly destroyed by a storm. There's an unspoken garden rivalry between you and your neighbor...and this storm is the perfect opportunity to flex your impeccable gardening skills. It's your task to repair the garden to its former glory while slowing or completely inhibiting your neighbor's ability to save their own garden.
