Frozenbyte has just released a PC and Mac update for Trine 2 and its DLC pack Trine 2: Goblin Menace on Steam. The update was released yesterday, but today Frozenbyte pushed out a hotfix for a minor issue that was found in the update. The new update from yesterday includes a number of different achievement and gameplay fixes while also improving the audio and multiplayer capabilities.
I had zero knowledge of Trine jumping into this game. I was completely unaware of the first game let alone that there was a sequel. However, one lazy afternoon while browsing the PSN Store I ran across Trine 2 and downloaded the demo. After trying said demo, I was convinced that the game in it's entirety needed to be played and reviewed.
No, but I've definitely thought about it on multiple occasions. How's the pacing, is it better than the demo's, because they seem slow to me.
It moves as quickly or as slow as you take to complete the puzzles. I finished some levels in about 10 - 15 minutes while others made me think more and took 30 minutes.
I don't know why, but I don't seem to like the demo's portion of it that much. I love puzzle games don't get me wrong. But the setting of Trine in my opinion would be much better suited to the rpg, action, or hack and slash genre of games.
Maybe one day I'll get into it more than I've feigned interest so far. The graphics seem far too beautiful to ignore. And for that alone I want to support the developer.
A wizard, a warrior and a thief. What may seem like an odd match-up at first has established itself as one of the most well-balanced trios of adventurers around. This ragtag bunch of self-proclaimed heroes is back once again in another adventure around the Kingdom, and as expected, it’s magnificent fun.
