    Прекрасная релакс игра с интересной механикой персонажа 3 в 1=) сюжет легкий, головоломки не сложные и способности персонажей прокачиваются, круто!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Slightly improved graphics and sound and a game that's almost twice as long as its predecessor. I really feel this game benefits from the 3D mode (yes, I still have a 3D-capable TV), but it does start to feel LOOONG. I appreciate a good false ending, but it wasn't - turns out that it's really two adventures in one, about equal in length. I mean, more bang for your buck, right? The boss fights are interesting in this one, both against the dragon and the goblin machine, and there are a lot of trophies which aren't cheapies (and they will remain locked for me, personally). I think if you're really into this game, you'll find a lot of replayability, but not for me. Pretty much one-and-done, though i did go back in a couple of levels to see if I could find/do something.… Expand

    Great coop game with simple mechanics and fun interactions, when every character-friend has a slightly different apporoach to solving puzzles

    I expected a lot from Trine 2. Trine 1 was a masterpiece when it comes to the graphics and fun gameplay. What Trine 2 has?

The bigger waste is removal of the artifacts. You know what else is gone? The great triangle that the sorcerer could spawn in Trine 1... yep it's gone. Instead Zoya got a blue arrow that creates a bubble that slows everything. And this is actually the core of the game... almost all of the puzzles are solved with the blue arrow and it's a real shame, because the first part had some diversity, but nope it's the blue arrow here! Also, because Trine 1 was not a long game, the developers decided to make Trine 2 harder... so it would take us longer to beat it, which is a disgrace. I finished Trine 1 on hard with hardcore mode on and had great time, but here this kind of difficulty is a bloody mess... better play it on normal. And that's mostly all the negative things I can say about Trine 2. The graphics are amazing, level designs are awesome, story is interesting.. some puzzles are really good, while other ones are a joke. It's a good game, but compared to Trine: Enchanted Edition it falls flat. Trine 2 is 8 out of 10. Now, because we're talking about "Complete Story", I have to review the dlc "Goblin Nickelback" too.

I know that some people will want to crucify me for this, but that's just how it is. I wish this dlc didn't exist. Also what's with the goblins in trine 2 and the dlc? There are mostly just goblins and no one else as antagonists... Trine 1 had lots of different enemies and here there are just goblins, some spiders rarely and some plants, that are hungry like Charlie Sheen is hungry for drugs. Either way this package is 7/10. Better play the first one. Still, Pickens approves!… Expand

    Pros:
    -GRAPHICS
    -MUSIC
    -Gameplay
    -Fun
    -Coop Play

    Cons:
    -Uh... it's not long enough?

    This is one of the most gorgeous, engrossing, and fun games I've ever played. But you MUST play it with at least one other person, in the same room. I honestly can't remember the last time I laughed and enjoyed a coop game so much.

    Can understand all the great reviews for this game. It is a standard side scrolling platform with a combat system that doesn't entertain.

    I've only played it in single player but can't see how it would improve by going coop.

    The controls are not bad, but ain't great either and the story is just a standard one.

    The visuals and songs are nice, but this game failed to entertain me.

    Quite beautiful and smoothly executed. A platform puzzler with physics based puzzles is nothing new but this game somehow manages to serve up the "been there, done that" game play in a really enjoyable and fun package. Not that frustrating as you seem to solve the puzzles just before they start to get on your nerves. Visuals seem to get better as the game progresses.

    The game world is designed beautifully. It was good fun to finish this game, but I wouldnt repeat. I didnt find the story behind the game particularly thrilling (fairy tale land with goodie goodie knights and "evil" queens). Overall, good puzzles, nice design.

    Trine 2: The Complete story is a side scrolling fantasy game that takes place years after the events of the first game.
    The story is simple, a group of 3 heroes are gathered together by a shiny artifact called the Trine and summoned on a journey filled with goblin and mysterious creatures and it is up to our heroes to find out why.

    The story is simple, a group of 3 heroes are gathered together by a shiny artifact called the Trine and summoned on a journey filled with goblin and mysterious creatures and it is up to our heroes to find out why.

    The story is played out like a fairy tale book and there are 3 main characters that you could easily choose from. Amadeus, the wizard who can raise items and summon objects from thin air. Dontius, the Knight who is equipped with a shield, a sword for fighting, and a hammer for smashing objects and acts as a body guard. And Zoy, the Thief who has a bow and arrow to take far shots at enemies and has a grappling hook. Trine 2: The complete story has wonderful visuals that are rich and deep adding to the overall charm of playing. The game runs smooth on the PS4 with 1080 P and 60 FPS. It also has a 3D option which is a nice touch.The Music moves will with the pacing of the story campaign which is around 5-6 hours. The levels are imaginative and intriguing leading to a variety of challenging unique puzzles that are solved by using the different skills from each character.
    I found the game to be cheerful and lighthearted. It can be played both local or online coop. Trine 2: The complete story is a well made edition that has minor control updates and comes with the very good goblin Menace expansion story. If you enjoy fantasy platform games, then this game is highly recommended.    … Expand

    Very decent game for the price. Great graphics and multiplayer make it for very very fun play times (it is nice to screw your partner now and then lol) especially if you want to make the game a bit easier (the puzzles are much easier done with two people than with one). Only caveat is the soundtrack which is a bit dull.

My biggest problem with the game (aside from a little glitchyness, here and there) is that the game is repetitive and goes on to long. I felt satisfied when I had beaten the final boss and the credits began to roll but then the DLC started and it turned out I was only 2/3rds of the way through the game. In the DLC's defense, a lot of the level design was significantly more interesting in the DLC levels than in some of the original levels but the puzzles were almost exactly the same. Fatigue set and made the last 3rd more of a slog to get through. Otherwise a very solid game.… Expand

In my 30+ years of gaming, this is hands down the most beautifully stunning game that I have ever seen. The lighting and visuals are absolutely breathtaking. It looks like you are looking at some kind of wonderful live painting. The colors are so unique and vivid that it just comes to life off of your screen. And the amount of sheer detail in these environments is just mindblowing. I am constantly stopping just to look around and try to see all that there is to see. Even though it's a 2d side scroller, it must be rendered in 3d. The depth of the backgrounds is incredible and there is constantly something going on in the background at all times. I found myself always wanting to journey INTO the scenes, instead of just ACROSS the scenes because of the amount of depth and detail in the background. You honestly cannot see everything because there is just too much. My wife, who cares 0.0% about video games, was sitting in the room with me last night while I was playing. Now she has seen bits and pieces of every game that I have played in the past 10 years just from walking through the room while I have been playing and glancing at the screen. But she has never stopped to look at a game ever. Last night she was like "Oh my god, what is this game? It's absolutely beautiful!" And I have not even touched on the gameplay yet which is addictively fun. The character models look amazing, the physics are top notch, and the music draws you right into it's fantasy world.

    Sublime game play - switching between characters is easy and fluid. Each have their own unique abilities to get you through the picturesque levels. Nice little puzzle elements, simple enough combat, just fun.

    The audio isn't great, but I'm not going to remove points because of it. It's nicely adequate.

    The price makes Trine 2 a bargain. I'd happily pay £30. In fact, I've enjoyed it far more than games that have cost me £50.
