Trine 2: Complete Story incorporates many of the aspects/mechanics from the first Trine game, but with: more puzzles, different skills, no item inventory and abilities aren’t restricted by a mana meter (yay for less restrictions). This time the heroes find themselves fighting goblins, oversized plants and spiders, as well as a fire breathing dragon – all to save a princess and restore order back to the land – Huzzaaaah!

Review Code kindly provided by Frozenbyte Let’s Rescue the Princess!Īmadeus the wizard, Pontius the knight and Zoya the thief are once again bound together by the mystical Trine and whisked away to save another kingdom.
System: Nintendo Switch (also on PC, PS4) So as you might reasonably guess, it pays to invest your skill points in the wizard’s box building talents since they provide the most tangible benefit to the gameplay.Genre: Adventure, Action, Platformer, Puzzle The skills that you unlock for both Zoya and Pontius seem largely superfluous since they don’t really offer anything truly meaningful above and beyond the default skills that each begin with.Īs you expand Amadeus’ arsenal of spells however, you find yourself able to ‘game’ the puzzles in a manner that perhaps the developers hadn’t planned for, as in many cases I was able to simply conjure up multiple boxes to reach areas that I was supposed to reach in a different fashion. If all this sounds a little too accommodating however, more confident/foolhardy players will find their masochistic tendencies ably catered for by the game’s Hardcore mode, which limits the amount of times you can come back from the grave and prevents saving during a Trine 2 Complete Story struggles to find surer footing though, is in relation to the skills that you can unlock for each character.

One way that it affords this level of accessibility is through an unobtrusive and customisable hint system a series of verbal prompts which prod you in the right direction should you find yourself frothing at the mouth and hopelessly stuck on a particularly troublesome puzzle.Īdditionally, checkpoints prove to be a welcome respite being generously placed and replenishing your health and reviving any fallen comrades into the bargain. On the topic of difficulty, the game rarely frustrates. It’s beautifully judged for the most part and as such, each of the characters can be upgraded with new abilities by collecting the shiny blue orbs and potion bottles which permeate Trine 2’s gorgeous locales.Īnd herein lies one of the game’s most captivating hooks above and beyond the need to see each new gloriously rendered level, the temptation to grab every magical orb and potion proves to be an irresistible one, due in no small part the increased ingenuity that the game demands to obtain them. For example, one area might require you to use Amadeus to conjure up a box to reach a ledge, switch to Zoya to swing rope your way across a hazardous swamp and then, on the other side, bring Pontius into the equation to deal with an oncoming goblin horde.
