About Trine Enchanted Edition

Three heroes, bound by one artifact. A wizard, a knight and a thief each reach for a mysterious device called Trine at the same moment, and it binds their fates together. Set in a world of great castles and strange machinery, their quest is to save a kingdom fallen to the undead. There is always another way through. The world runs on fully interactive physics, and each hero meets it differently. Amadeus the Wizard summons objects out of thin air to solve puzzles and open new routes. Zoya the Thief uses agility and dead-on accuracy to surprise the monsters and cross the widest gaps by grappling hook. Pontius the Knight unleashes mayhem and physical destruction wherever he goes. Choose whoever suits the challenge ahead, and switch between them whenever you like. Play it alone or together. 1–3 players, in online or local co-op. Alone, you hold all three heroes and swap between them freely. With others, each player takes a hero and you combine their skills to get through. Castles, caverns and dragon graveyards. Journey through fifteen levels with their own distinct atmospheres and challenges, including the Astral Academy, Crystal Caverns, Dragon Graveyard, Forsaken Dungeons, Fangle

I think we should have more of these games nowadays

I think we should have more of these games nowadays. Trine simply looks stunning! It successfully captures the atmosphere of a medieval fantasy world. To make it interesting we have 3 protagonists - a knight, a rogue and a wizard - but we can only use one at a time. And no, the wizard cannot conjure up lightning and summon creatures or throw fireballs at the approaching enemies. Amadeus can only create boxes, planks or triangles - objects with which you can proceed further ahead on each level. And this is where Trine shines: There are many puzzles and you need to think and find the solution. Occasionally, you can progress fast but on your way you notice you have left some collectibles behind. So, while completing the game does not necessarily take long you are apt to spend hours with the game just to make a 100% progress on each stage. Frozenbyte did a wonderful job when releasing this gem back in 2009. Instead of picking this one you should look for the complete edition which has its sequel, the DLC for the 2nd episode and the soundtrack included. Here in Hungary the retail version of the same bundle costs around 5 EUR and you can activate all the contents via Steam. You cannot go wrong with this one and as Trine is regularly discounted you can easily find it for a suitable price. Just make sure to grab it with a friend as the sequel includes co-op mode!

Exactly what I hoped for

Beautiful graphics, pleasant background music, decent amount of humour and comic mischief, item pickups, straightforward puzzles and arcade platformer. Achievements are reasonable and can be obtained singleplayer or co-op with 2/3 players. Published Steam community guides, online walkthrus and videos are available and all achievements can be obtained during normal playthrough of the game, after several attempts replaying a particular chapter as well as the option to replay each completed chapter on Hard difficulty.

Nobody really knows why this game is good

Nobody really knows why this game is good. It's written down on a scroll somewhere. It's a platformer in an ocean of platformers. It's sweet and pretty, it's enough and not too much, it's easy on Normal and sometimes annoying on Normal, cos who enjoys falling to their death repeatedly? But that's the genre. Get into the swing of things using Thief; mow down skeletons using a bow with up to three arrows in one shot. If she's dead for some reason, choose the knight to mow down even more skeletons. If these classes fail, use the Wizard to get to the next checkpoint. You can even fly Aladdin-style using two conjured planks on top of one another, once you turn on levitation. Leviosaaa, baby! I haven't tried co-op and I've yet to play the game on Hard mode, but I'm 4 achievements shy of 100%, so I felt comfortable enough to share my thoughts. Finland has some great developers, so I feel good about supporting them. I rate this game "Ihan mahtava, peukalot pystyyn!"
