Poor controls and poor game

I own the original boxed games but decided to check the GoG version. Obviously GoG's Enclave is plagued with the same gameplay issues. While the game's promise is quite interesting, and even the storytelling, the execution isn't. The knight, for example, is cursed with the in-capacity to hit his opponents (like goblins) with his melee weapons and with a slooow swing time (really, no one swing a scimitar so slowly) that make it easy prey of adversaries while the shields yields awkward results. This will result in frustrating sessions. With the huntress, the bow wielding woman, the situation greatly improve but the poor hit check code results in arrows that literally pass through you enemies without anyone noticing. The secrets... well, I think that everyone will find every secret even in the first playthrough (not necessarily evil ...)

Broken beyond words

I usually hate to review a game (or TV show or Movie) until I've played/read/watch the whole thing. But Enclave is so broken I felt that I must warn others. I played for about 3 hours to give it a chance, but had to give up. Enclave is broken. It is obviously a rushed effort to put out a hack-n-slash game to fill a void before a deadline. Playing the whole game is frustratingly impossible for me. Not because it was too difficult, not because there were frustrating enemies, but because the whole game is broken. A heel-high pebble can block your path. Every enemy is jumpy and unpredictable (in a bad sloppy-design way, not a clever challenging way). Hits that should connect don't, blocks that shouldn't connect do, and basic walking is a jittery, bouncy, unpleasant experience. Come on! making your character WALK in a straight ling shouldn't be difficult. No, it isn't my controls, GOG, or the PC port - it is a terrible physics/game design. Devil May Cry came out a year before Enclave and it had better graphics, a similar hack-n-slash level-by-level design, and it actually WORKED. Demon Stone was similar in gameplay and came out not too long after. I'm sure there are many similar titles in that timeframe with similar gameplay that are vastly superior. My advice: Find something better. Enclave isn't even worth the time it wastes, and it is certainly not worth paying for.

Only if you can stand not finishing

I like this game. I really like it. The music is great (why, for the sake of GOG, it's not in the extras?!), the visuals aged gracefully and the combat although very random still can be playable (if you care to find out that best short range weapon is ... bow loaded with 8 arrows and fired at point blank). What I can't stand is the inconsistent difficulty. The game starts very easy, and stays there for almost all of the time. And then come the last 3 levels which can be described only as "you have 100% health - now you're dead". All the game you've been taught that no single hit can kill you - and all of sudden it does. You walk up to a wall - bang, spikes shoot out of it, you're dead. There is a self-building staircase that starts moving only after you come in - but it kills you if you're inside when it moves. Levels were used to be flooded in checkpoints - now there are none, play it all again. It seems like when the game was nearing completion, CEO ran out of his meds and went from guy mode straight into killer psycho. Plain unfair. As a player I feel cheated. I invested some time into playing it, but it deprived me of my happy ending. I recommend not trying it at all. If you like playing only part of the game - go for it.

Boring

This game would have received a 3 out of 5 from me back in 1999. However, now the game is just basic and kind of boring to play. This was never a great game, even back in the day it was barely mediocre. Now it is just plain dull. There are better games here on GOG for you to spend your time and money on.

If there's one thing I hate...

It's games that do not play by the same rules as the player. Games designers seem to think this is called a "challenge" - but really, it is just lazy design and cheating, and Enclave is full of it.
