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.
The gameplay in Enclave is divided into two main paths: protecting the Enclave (Light) or invading the land (Dark). The player can choose from twelve different characters, each with unique abilities and strengths. The gameplay involves a mix of shooting, puzzles, and platforming, as the player must complete various tasks to achieve their objective. The player can use a variety of weapons, including swords, bows, staffs, and spears, and can also equip shields and potions to aid them in their quest. Armor is abundant and comes in many shapes and sizes.
