Enclave

About

Enclave is a medieval action RPG where you pick a side in a battle between Light and Dark. Choose from 12 characters split into Light-aligned roles like Knights and Wizards or Dark-aligned ones like Berserkers and Liches. Your goal shifts based on your side: defend the Enclave or conquer it. Combat blends melee attacks with basic magic and ranged weapons. Progress through levels by completing objectives while collecting armor sets and using shields and potions for survival. The game emphasizes straightforward RPG loops with class-based abilities and environmental challenges. Released in 2002, Enclave runs on PC, Mac, Linux, and consoles like Xbox and GameCube. Its roster of distinct classes and varied weapon options stand out, though the story remains secondary to its action-focused gameplay. With simple puzzles and a clear good-versus-evil setup, it leans into classic RPG tropes without overcomplicating them. The game’s availability on multiple platforms for its era and the abundance of armor customizations add replay value for fans of turn-based combat systems.

Storyline

During a great war, the land of Celenheim was separated into two sides; the light side and the dark side. On the side of the Light, the Enclave was protected from all sides by a wide rift, a bottomless abyss. On the Dark side, twisted forms struggled for survival, while slowly growing more powerful, preparing to invade the Light side once again.
