Then, only a couple of years back (2015) Trine 3: Artifacts of Power was released on PC and console (stereoscopic 3D on PlayStation 4). Trine 2 had an RPG element by way of earning skill points where you can upgrade the characters via a skill tree.Īgain, Frozenbyte really upped their game with Trine 2. The Trine once again works its magic and throws our band of unlikely heroes in to a world they had not experienced before. In Trine 2 the Kingdom has been restored at the conclusion of the first Trine and there were a few years of peace… until the Goblins arrived. So, it wasn’t too long (2012) before we revisted our soul-bonded trio again in Trine 2.Īgain the three need to band together in similar gameplay mechanics, retaining that astounding real-world physics which both accented and at times added to the difficulty of gameplay. The first Trine title set the developers Frozenbyte as magical wizards themselves in a game that we all couldn’t get enough of. That said, if one or two of your characters dies, there’s a cool off period, or until you find a health potion. If one character is low on health, generally with you being able to switch characters will save you from death. Throughout the game you will be changing characters on the fly to progress. Pontius, well he is like a bull in a China shop, but has excellent defense with his shield and a brutal undead slayer with his sword. Zoya has a bow and arrow and rope with a dagger which will allow her to swing across great caverns, Amadeus can cast spells and produce objects out of thin air, handy if that next platform is just out of reach. Utilising real-world physics like we had never seen before, each Level consists of puzzles where you will need to use all three characters and their abilities to get through. The three strangers, who had no intention of being so close with eachother, let alone friends must now work together to undo the magic that binds them together and save what remains of the Kingdom along their adventures.Ī 2.5D side scroll, the original Trine exploded with PC gamers due to its richly detailed and ethereal world. Zoya thinking there will be some goodies ripe for plundering, Pontius on a self directed mission to protect the Academy and Amadeus already within the Academy after a sleeping potion backfired is trying to escape.Īs all three approach a shrine to the magical treasure that is the Trine their souls become fused together. When the King of a ruined land dies without leaving a hier the world in which Zoya (Thief), Pontius (the Knight) and Amadeus (the Wizard) all see an opportunity as the world in which they live in plunges in to dark chaos, the undead rise up out of nowhere, seemingly, and the throne is vacant.Įach one of the trio of characters goes straight to the Academy of Magic, but with thier own motive. In 2009 when the first Trine game released their souls intertwined thanks to a mysterious artifact called the Trine. What do a thief, a knight and a wizard have in common?
