Nov 28, 2012You won't find a more complete version of one of the best indie games ever than on the Wii U eShop.
-
Jan 10, 2013With challenging puzzles, beautiful visuals, the inclusion of previously released DLC , a bonus Wii U level, and local/online play, Trine 2: The Director's Cut is well worth the purchase price. This downloadable title is easily one of the best games available on the Wii U.
-
Dec 11, 2012Trine 2 Director's Cut on Wii U is beautiful and deep, an exceptional game on the Wii U eShop.
-
Mar 20, 2013Trine 2's tailor-made adventure will delight platform and puzzle fans alike, and the game becomes a surprisingly viable option for multiplayer bashes, too. Not the longest of games, but a beautiful ride while it lasts.
-
Feb 13, 2013This is definitive version of one of the best games to come out in an absolute age. There really is no excuse not to own it.
-
Jan 2, 2013Brilliant physics puzzles that force you to think on your feet, fun co-op and a huge, gorgeous quest for just over £10. Trine 2 is eShop gold.
-
Dec 17, 2012This is the best Wii U launch title. Trine 2 contains a lot of fun and is a must buy title. Simple as that. It's just magical.
-
Dec 4, 2012Trine 2 Director´s Cut on Wii U is an essential buy. It's beautiful, clever and quite big, which is a combination not too often seen these days in videogames.
-
Dec 3, 2012The most complete version so far is one of those games you don't want to miss if you've just bought your new Wii U. Beautiful and deep, Trine 2 is as good as we've seen it on other platforms.
-
Nov 27, 2012Trine 2 is best when digested and enjoyed slowly, but even if you choose to blast through the game, you will surely have fun with its multiplayer, visuals, and puzzle design. This early eShop title is certainly worth any adventurous player's purchase.
-
Nov 26, 2012The visuals are lavishly detailed, with an organic, living beauty that you can choose to view either on your TV or off – the whole game can be played solely on the GamePad if you choose.
-
Nov 26, 2012This is arguably the definitive version of Trine 2, offering more content and the ability to draw and aim with a touchscreen. While some of those controls can be a bit finicky when in the heat of battle, it does offer a fun and interactive way to play this brilliantly crafted game. Trine 2: Director's Cut does the Wii U's eShop a favor in creating a platformer that's both luscious and well designed and could easily go as a standalone product in some capacity. Even if you own the original, this is definitely worth checking out to see the enhancements.
-
Pelit (Finland)Jan 23, 2013Trine 2 has aged exceptionally well. This Finnish platformer is one of the best looking Wii U launch titles, although it's initial appearance happened over a year ago. This game is a solid platformer, which combines action and puzzles in just the right proportions.
-
Dec 5, 2012Even though I was hoping for a little more creativity on Wii U when it comes to the touchscreen controls, this still is a magical and extensive adventure.
-
Dec 27, 2012This is without any doubt the best console version of Trine 2 thanks to more contents and a best graphical aspect.
-
Dec 4, 2012Frozenbyte offers Trine 2 in the best way with only a few small regrets for some absences, that should be solved by a first update later this month.
-
Dec 3, 2012Not much novelty for a game that was already brilliant. Wii U has a complete and nearly perfect version, very tactile and easy to enjoy, also in multiplayer.
-
Dec 3, 2012Trine 2: Director's Cut is an excellent game and an absolute must-own if you don't already have it for another console. If you've already got the 360, PS3, or PC versions of the game, I'm not quite sure if the additional content is worth $20 – that will really depend on how much you liked it. If you're a casual fan of the series, then it's probably not worth full price, and if you've got a good enough PC to run it, then your best bet is to stick with that unless you're dying for something to play on the Wii U. It looks and sounds great on the Gamepad, and is one of the most amazing titles to see running on the device.
-
Jan 16, 2013Trine 2: Director's Cut is a good option for the Wii U and leads to an improvement on the previous version, because of the very good adaptation to the GamePad.
-
Dec 16, 2012Trine 2 is a magical game with a lot of great and colourful environments. The puzzles are challenging and demand inventive ways of using the characters. Thanks to the different skills of the characters, the co-op mode is a game in itself. And since Trine 2 doesn't use uncomfortable motion controls, it is perfect for just playing on the GamePad.
-
Dec 10, 2012Trine 2: Director's Cut is a seriously recommended title. The enthusiasts of the modern platform will find a fascinating product, characterized by a delicious artistic direction and an intelligent gameplay.
-
Dec 6, 2012More accessible and better value than the PC original, and with the same beautiful 2D visuals – Trine 2 sets the Wii U's eShop off to an excellent start.
