William Mabin from ITF Gaming writes: When I first picked up Trine I thought ‘Here we go again, another RPG that is probably going to take the form of a sandbox environment, borrowing most of its ideas from sources of popular fantasy fiction.’ Then I downloaded the game and it was, ‘Wait a second! This is a side-scroller!’ However, it wasn’t just a side-scroller it was also the evolution of titles such as The Lost Vikings and Realms of Chaos which also allowed players to switch between characters in order to solve different puzzles. Frozenbyte, the company that developed the shoot-em’-up, Aliens inspired Shadowgrounds, has done something extremely brave in creating this type of game in the wake of a tidal wave of FPS and third-person perspective games, but how do Trine and Trine 2 really rate in today’s world of video games? Let’s find out!
VGChartz's Taneli Palola: "Pulkkinen is a relatively new face in the video game industry. Thus far he has worked exclusively on games developed by Finnish game studios, but I wouldn't be surprised if at some point in the near future his music begins to attract attention from elsewhere as well. Given that he is only 34 years old he likely has many more years ahead of him in the video game industry."
"Developer Frozenbyte has rolled out for its hit game, Trine 2. The PlayStation patch is now available for download for both US and EU gamers, so if your PS4 doesn’t automatically download patches, better head on over and flick that switch on."
