Frozenbyte doesn't take many chances with Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy. It's another game based on the now familiar Trine script - there are a few new puzzles, new properties and the like, but basically it's much the same as before.

Trine 5 A Clockwork Conspiracy is exactly the game we expected. It picks up the formula of the fourth chapter, introduces a few minor innovations and continues on its own path. It is a puzzle-platformer that is fun in solo and cooperative play, lacking in enemy characterization but still relying on the excellent trio of protagonists. Fans will not be disappointed.

For those looking for a fun and charming puzzle platformer to play, especially with friends, Trine 5 is the perfect choice.

Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy continues to push the series back to its former glory.

Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy is a decent culmination of the series. The game offers plenty of mind-bending puzzles and still respects its platforming roots. While the combat still feels somewhat clunky, the game's visuals and puzzle difficulty more than makeup for it. The game is much more enjoyable with friends as they can solve puzzles more inventively.

Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy is just as beautiful as the series ever was, and the same charm is present and correct, but it's definitely beginning to wear a little thin.

All that being said, Trine 5 is still a fine old time for puzzle platformer fans, even if it does feel like a series that needs to evolve going forward. Its reliably refined puzzle platforming combination can still be a joy to get lost in, and that eureka moment when you finally stumble across a neat way in which to combine the abilities of its roster never fails to delight. Fans who just want more Trine will feel right at home with Trine 5, and if the goal of Frozenbyte was to continue to appease the core fanbase with another solid entry, then I think they’ve successfully achieved that.
