Trine PC Demo is Out!

Archive: 3 posts


Hey just downloaded this and it's pretty good. I'd prefer it on a console as with all platformers but it's still good.

YouTube - Trine Gameplay Trailer #2, April 2009 (PSN, PC)

You can switch between a Knight, a Thief and a Wizard at any time and it's basically physics based puzzle solving gameplay with some combat. The game is beautiful looking with great animations and really enjoyable gameplay.

The wizard can create boxes (you draw a square with the mouse) which can be used for various things such as dropping them on enemies, to access a higher point in a level and to activate buttons etc. He can also make things levitate so if you miss the enemy on the first try just pick the box up and try again.

The Knight is a brawler obviously and can block, kill enemies with his sword and cut ropes or break down wooden barriers.

The Thief is the most agile and is my favourite. She has a grappling hook and a bow and is great for speedy gameplay. She's probably the least useful though in terms of variable uses of her abilities. The wizard wins that category.

You can level up abilities in the game by collecting little green vials. First level up is 50 vials and I got that and levelled up the Wizard. He could then have 2 boxes in existence at the same time. Not sure what the levels of the Thief and Knight are.

Anyway it's a very enjoyable game, won't be getting it for PC but will almost definitely be getting it when it comes out on PSN as long as it isn't too expensive. Seems to be retailing at ?25 on PC which is a bit steep.

Try out the demo here (461 MB), it's well worth a go:

I've seen a few people hyped up about this but i thought it looked a bit boring

I'll try out the demo if there's one on PSN, i don't think my pc could run it
