Trine Enchanted Edition


Puzzling platformer Trine 2 is bringing its trio of heroes to Wii U with a Director's Cut of the game.


Indie title Trine 2, like its predecessor Trine was well-received when it debuted on Xbox Live, PSN, and PC. The game has the player switch on the fly among three characters—a knight, a thief, and a mage—each with their own particular set of skills. All three must work together, through the player's hot-swapping, to traverse each level.


The Wii U-exclusive Director's Cut will be worked over to take advantage of the GamePad controller.


Trine 2: Complete Story

These Are the Best Indie Games of 2011 Just as its sister site ModDB picks the top PC gaming mods of the year, IndieDB rounds out the year with a countdown of the top independently developed games of the year. Think of it as a shopping list to help establish your indie gaming cred. How many of the top ten have you played?


Me? I've only gotten around to experiencing half of the ten games voted by IndieDB community members as the best independent games of the year. I've spent a great many hours exploring the world of Bastion, as everyone should. Stephen got me into SpaceChem after raving about the iPhone version of the game. Trine 2 from Frozenbyte was a no-brainer, considering my great love of the original, and Minecraft-meets-FPS Ace of Spades was personally responsible for several near-oversleep situations over the past few months.


As for the number one game, the 2D building, exploring, and surviving action of Terraria...I'm ashamed to say I hadn't played it at all, at least until this morning, when I plunked down five dollars for a copy on Steam. I'm enjoying it so much right now that this post was nearly incredibly late.


Hit up the list to see not only the top ten, but the top 100 indie games of 2011 and beyond, and start building your shopping list.

Trine Enchanted Edition

Should You Buy Trine 2? Yes.Co-op platformer Trine was one of my favourite games of 2009. Judging by the cult following it's developed since then, I'm not alone in my fondness.


Two years later, the game is back for a sequel, one that, on the surface at least, promises to add very little to the formula already laid down by the first game. Who can say whether this makes it worth your time and money? Our guts can, that's who.


Luke Plunkett, who loves Trine 2 more than Trine 1: Oops. Kinda giving the game away there with that opener. Ah well, who needs suspense in an informal appraisal when your heart is so full of love and admiration for the little platformer series that could?


While other games have been technically more impressive in the visuals department in 2011, none for me can match how beautiful Trine 2 looks. It's an over-saturated wonderland that is often the game's fourth character, stopping you dead in your tracks to admire a bleeding sunset or a swinging lantern or the swirling mists of a shimmering, emerald jungle.


Not much has changed, granted, aside from the welcome jump to three-player online co-op. You're still controlling the same three characters who have largely the same toolset at their disposal. You play as one of them (or co-operatively you can team up), and have to juggle who is best for which particular situation or challenge. But the core concept of Trine was never its problem. It was a solid foundation, one that allowed for both freedom and organic puzzle-solving and that helped the game stand out.


Trine's only problem was that first time around it felt a little cheap in places. Not so second time around. There's a level of polish and professionalism to Trine 2 that gives its gameplay the accompaniment it deserves, your globe-trotting tale much better-told, the characters much more elegantly fleshed-out.


Trine 2 has come out at a time of year when it's in danger of being over-looked while people sink hours into Skyrim, Battlefield or Modern Warfare. Which is a shame. Because if you appreciate a little thinking with your platforming and some of the best-looking visuals around, you should be sinking some hours into Trine 2 as well. It's a definite Yes.



Michael Fahey, who often suspects there's a lanky mage and a sultry female rogue lurking inside him: Gorgeous, quirky, inventive, and endlessly entertaining (until the end, of course), the original Trine was very close to being the ultimate realization of how wondrous a 2D platformer could be if a developer put its minds and resources to it. That puts Trine 2 incredibly close to being the ultimate realization of how wondrous a 2D platformer could be with a cherry on top. It's a feast for the eyes, a treat for the brain, and for those of you with two handy friends, a delightful weekend of multiplayer mayhem in the making. Yes.

Brian Ashcraft, who played Trine and liked it okay: Trine 2 is out already, and for some reason, I haven't picked it up. I'm not sure why. The first Trine was a great little game.


Trine 2 looks to be great, too. The trailers and gameplay footage look absolutely stunning. The thing that I can't comment on, because I haven't played it, is the gameplay. But even if the gameplay totally stinks, I probably should buy this anyway—just to look at it. So should you. Yes.



Gut Check is an off-the-cuff impression of what we think of a game: what we'd tell a friend; how we'd respond on Twitter or Facebook or over a beer if someone asked us "Would you buy this game?" Our lead writer, who has played a lot of the game, decides. Other writers chime in for additional points of view.
Trine Enchanted Edition

You'll finally be able to get your hands on the medieval, character-switching action of Trine 2 today, if you're getting it on Steam. The game's gorgeous art style and beautiful color palette manifests into gorgeous vistas and sharp character animations. As previously mentioned, console versions release a little later. Either way, consider this sequel an anecdote to the grit and brown of the last few months' AAA games.
