    Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power is a worthy successor to the first two games in the series. The addition of 3D environments, while a bit tricky at first, ends up enhancing the experience. There are still a few quirks, such as camera angles or some complex platforming sequences, but overall it's still a blast to play through the new title, both for veterans as well as newcomers.

    It may not be quite as good as the previous titles and some gameplay problems exist, but it draws us back in repeatedly - even to replay earlier levels for the pure enjoyment of them.

    Trine 3 is a great game although it has some minor problems and a cliffhanger ending. The fans of the series cannot go wrong with it... the magic is still there.

    The third dimension did really good for Trine, refreshing a gameplay that was starting to miss something new.

    Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power makes a good long story short. It even ends to a cliff-hanger which isn’t nice. [Sept 2015]

    Most if its initial problems of technical nature are now addressed and Trine 3 truly shines. It may be the shortest Trine to date, but its probably the most beautiful one.

    In spite of a short lifespan and a not so great ending, Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power is still a game to own thanks to its amazing gameplay and its sublime artistic touch.

    Trine 3 is an absolutely charming and wonderful game. If you have two other friends and want to play this together, it’s absolutely a must.

    You will definitely love Trine 3's great art style, impressive puzzles and pretty music list. But sad fact: everything will end in a few hours.

    Frozenbyte give us a third installment on the Trine saga with good attributes, but also significant gaps compared with the two previous installments.

    It is a good game, and definitely a step forward for the franchise, but at the same time the ambition of this episode has taken its toll on the experience, and leaves it feeling somehow unfinished.

    Trine 3 is so charming and visually awesome like its predecessors, but the new 3D perspective brings a more simplistic gameplay. It still is a great adventure puzzle game, but less than we expected.

    It may not quite master its new perspective, but Trine 3 is still a charming, light-hearted romp that’s well worth your time.

Big focus is still on puzzle solving and using different platforms to move forward. Graphics and soundtrack are just absolutely stellar.… Full Review »
