simply magical

There are few games that truly deserved to be called a Masterpiece. This game is one these rare titles. The controls are very precise and there a quite a bit different skills you can use to overcome the many challenges in the game. And the combination of fighting, solving puzzles and moving through the levels is not perfectly executed but also very entertaining. There is a lot to discover and a lot of the puzzles have different solutions. It is truly a very polished game. But there is more! Gorgeous graphics, fantastic music, world that feels like a fairy tale, quirky humour, interesting heroes and villains. I could go on and on but it's simply best if you find out yourself why this game is a masterpiece. So buy it and have fun!

If the best bedtime story was a game

When I first got this game I played through it once or twice... every evening for a few weeks. The true test of a game is to pass that initial obsession and this is one of the few that managed to do that. First we have the atmosphere. You enter a fairytale and never want to leave. Then we have the gameplay. After the first playthroughs the story isn't what keeps you in. It's the gameplay. You can instantly switch between the 3 characters to do increidble things. Block incoming arrows with the knights shield, freeze enemies with thief's frost arrows, lift them up with the wizzard and watch them shatter at the ground. Or trap them in a box with the wizzard and charge them off a cliff with the knight. The flipside is you can "cheat" all puzzles in multiple ways. Coming up with new solutions is very satisfying, but sometimes I wish it wasn't quite so easy to fly past everything. Play creatively and not power through and you will have a blast. Adding to this is the coop. Laugh at eachothers mistakes, impress with creative kills and goof around with boxes and stuff. As for negatives? Some skill combos feel a bit broken. Plank with charge and airshield for example. And then in expansion gravity field came. It's interesting but is abusable to tears. There is also no randomization of levels. All in all it's almost a perfect game. Lots of room for creativity and scaling well with your skill level. Attention to detail and just solid magical fun.

Do you like Poetry?

Trine 2 the complete story is a beautiful game that surpasses the original in every aspect except one. Throughout every level are located chests which contain the best treasure of all .... pieces of a poem. No matter how many chests I opened I always felt my disappointment renewed. Don't get me wrong - I love the higher challenge level, the better graphics, and the better skill tree that trine 2 presents and would recommend it to anyone, especially in this package that includes all expansions. The game lacks a feeling of progression that the original game possesses because there are no special items to collect, but does somewhat compensate with the more expansive skill tree.

Beautiful but boring

When I played this game for the first time I was amazed with the fantastic graphic and the design. Unfortunately the other features of the game are not as good. Although the game has a coop mode, playing together is fun only in the beginning, because later the only character which is capable of solving all of the puzzles is the wizard. The puzzles are easy and repetitive. The background story is not involving and the dialogues which suppose to be funny are just silly. Fighting with the goblins is fun but unfortunately not enough.

This game is a piece of fine art.

This is probably the finest video game interactive art piece you will ever have the pleasure of playing. Everything about Trine 2 has a sense of magical discovery and you can't wait to see what is next in the story. I was a huge Commdore user way back in the 1980s and I have often thought if the Commdore Amiga had survived this would what its games would look like. Trine 2 is the type of game that made computers a magical experience for me back in those golden days of early home computing. The sound and music are perfectly crafted as well. Even if old school style side scrollers are not your thing just experiencing Trine 2 glowing from your screen is worth the price of admission. The work that went into this amazing product is truly the pinnacle of what a side scroller can be.
