In The Trials of Enkidu, you will need to learn your foes strengths and weaknesses, and discover powerful counters if you are to prevail and return to your own time, while also uncovering the mysteries of the Eternal Lotus.
Trials of Enkidu combines fast-paced combat, build-crafting, and strategic planning in a top-down, 2D pixel-art world filled with gothic steampunk influences.
