First Impression: Trine
Posted on Saturday, February 13th, 2010 at 1:36 am by Jeff HoyMy first thought upon getting into the game: Trine is a Lost Vikings for the new generation. I picked up this PSN download game last night while it is on sale for only $9.99. I am impressed.
Trine is a 2.5D puzzle/platformer with three characters, each with unique abilities, that you can switch between on the fly to help you make progress. The puzzles I’ve seen so far have all been physics based, using weights and blocks to open doors, tilting ramps in different directions to access areas, and more along those lines.
With lush environments, beautiful cut scenes, excellent voice overs and narration, and pleasant music, Trine is very appealing to the visual and auditory senses. For Playstation 3 players there are 33 trophies to be earned. My only complaint, it only runs at 720p on the PS3, but that’s no big deal.
So far I’m enjoying it very much.
