    me deu um pouco de raiva algumas mecanicas funcionando mal, como os objetos meio que grudarem ans paredes enquanto vc os levita, mas nada perto de estragar a experiência. história simples porém divertida, personagens carismáticos, trilhas e efeitos sonoros bonitos e duas coisas que merecem topico proprio
    - o multiplayer é divertidissimo e funciona bem demais
    - o visual é inacreditavel.

    Trine 2 is a puzzle platformer and suited for those who like to relax their mind while playing a game. In Trine 2, you get to play with a warrior, archer and wizard with the ability to instantly switch among those classes. Warrior’s main use is to kill enemies, archer can swing from platforms that are otherwise very hard to reach , whereas the wizard conjures boxes and manipulates objects.Trine 2 is a puzzle platformer and suited for those who like to relax their mind while playing a game. In Trine 2, you get to play with a warrior, archer and wizard with the ability to instantly switch among those classes. Warrior’s main use is to kill enemies, archer can swing from platforms that are otherwise very hard to reach , whereas the wizard conjures boxes and manipulates objects. The secondary goal (other than beating the mission) is to collect experience orbs which you can later use to distribute skill points to your characters.

    The main selling point of Trine 2 is its astonishing graphics. The game is so good looking that you can basically take a random screenshot and use as wallpaper. Combined with the relaxing soundtrack and rather slow -think before you act- gameplay Trine 2 really calms you down every time you play it. Also, to get the most enjoyment out of it, you should play it coop online. Most missions show that the game was designed with coop play in mind.

    However, the game is not without drawbacks. Action is very shallow and you can kill most enemies by basic swings of sword. Also, the game is way too easy. I have played it in hard mode, yet did not come across any puzzles that took anytime to figure it out. With the added element of instant resurrection when you die and the ability of overcoming most puzzles with the alternative method of making box towers, the game offers almost zero challenge. Other problems include bad storytelling (I have read everything and don’t really remember anything about the story) and some disconnection issues when playing online coop.

    Finally, it was a bit of a surprise that despite being a side scroller puzzle platformer, Trine 2 is played best when played with a mouse + keyboard rather than a controller since aiming with the bow and creating boxes with the cursor are elements very often used during gameplay.

    To sum up, Trine 2 is enjoyable while it lasts and beautiful to look at. But dull action mechanics and extremely easy gameplay might frustrate more experienced gamers.

    PS: Play it coop, hard difficulty and with a keyboard. Goblin Menace DLC is slightly better than the main campaign (with a final boss which became my favorite Trine 2 mission), but the Dwarven Caverns DLC lacks in comparison.

    My review on the 2nd part will not differ from that on the 1st: The very first platformer I met on PC in my life. Before that I have never played "flat games" on PC, but I was bribed by the colorful and rich environment, the classic group of three fantasy game heroes, and the rating with a reviews. As a result, this game became for me a kind of revolution in the World of Games.

    One but: it seems to me that it is very inconvenient to play the game-pad for the mage, with the mouse it is incomparably faster and more convenient to control the "sight" by drawing magic cubes / platforms.
    ...
    I’ll only add about what has changed: I like that they removed the mana/energy bar, although it’s a little dishonest. And I really DO NOT like that the inventory that allowed you to customize the characters was removed too. Artifacts for this genre of games should be a great plus.
