    Trine 2's a fun physics-driven platformer worth playing both for its involving co-op and vivid use of color. It doesn't present any hugely substantial leaps forward beyond the original formula but if you're looking for more Trine and have a group of friends looking to join in, it's sure to provide a more than sufficient experience.

    Trine 2 is a beautiful game. With great character models, environments, and music; it is a real pleasure to the senses. Watch a high qualityTrine 2 is a beautiful game. With great character models, environments, and music; it is a real pleasure to the senses. Watch a high quality youtube video of it and you'll see for yourself how well the vibrant painting-like art style brings the game to life. There is also a good dose of humor spread throughout the game. Trine 2 is a puzzle platformer with light RPG elements (you level up and choose what moves you want to unlock from a somewhat limited skill tree). There are 3 playable characters and whether you're playing by yourself or with 2 other friends (local or Live) you can swap between the 3 at any time. Each character has unique abilities and each is necessary to get through the levels. If you legitimately try to solve the puzzles, they can be pretty difficult at times. However, most of the time you can simply exploit the wizards abilities to get across the gaps. This game is definitely at its best when played with friends, especially local. With the uniqueness of the 3 playable characters everyone playing has to pull their weight, which often times leads to some pretty funny moments when someone messes up. If you've played all the way through Trine 1 there really isn't a whole lot new with Trine 2, it's just a more refined product. Trine 2 is also a bit longer than I expected and did start to get somewhat dull in the later 1/3 of the game, until the great looking final boss. It would have benefited greatly from having more bosses like the final boss. However, despite those minors drawbacks, this game is well worth the price of admission and is A MUST if available at a discount. Great atmosphere, great co-op, and some pretty good humor make this a nice little gem. 8/10… Full Review »

Финны Frozenbyte послеСнова вместе, снова впереди волшебное приключение трех закадычных друзей воровки Зои, колдуна Амадея и рыцаря Понтия. Финны Frozenbyte после весьма удачной, но не очень большой первой части всерьёз взялись за дело и выпустили один из самых мощных и знаковых платформеров всея Земли. На этот раз игрового процесса стало более чем достаточно. Геймплей по сути не приподнес никаких сюрпризов, разве что косметические улучшения по сравнению с первой частью. Прежде всего главное достоинство Trine 2 это ее картинка. Об этой самой картинке можно говорить бесконечно, она действительно завораживает и живет своей непостижимой собственной сказочной жизнью, поражает буйством красок, в этот мир и его обитателей влюбляешься бесповоротно. В остальном же это старый-добрый Trine узнаваемый, интересный, но возможно недостаточно сложный. С другой стороны она прекрасно подходит для того чтобы просто расслабиться и получить удовольствие в компании двух друзей.… Full Review »

    This game was okay. Pretty simplistic and gets boring. Scenery is awesome tho.
