  1. There are very few titles on the PSN currently that play anything like it, and the mix of puzzle solving and platforming is extremely well done.
  2. Trine is a great game to get for some casual fun – try the demo and then splurge for the full version.
  3. In short, this one is well worth a try. There are plenty of ways to spend the money in your wallet on the PSN, but few are as pretty or as uniquely rewarding.
  4. 85
    The few rough edges that crop up as repetitive enemies and a weak link in the teamwork chain do little to detract from the very compelling whole.

    One of the best downloadable games for the Playstation 3. Stellar graphics, storyline, characters, sound/music, and great and easy to learn controls. Awesome!!! 10/10 Expand

    I read a lot of reviews before buying this game, and would just add a couple of things that weren't clear: 1) I'm an okay gamer, but it certainly took me more than 5 hours to get through; I wonder if some of the reviewers didn't try to get the hard-to-reach chests and experience bottles, which are a big part of it. 2) The last level is nothing like the first 14, in gameplay or difficulty, and was pretty frustrating (again, I'm guessing reviewers didn't want to say they found it hard), although it wouldn't be as bad on the PC version. I'd still completely recommend the game, though. Expand
  3. Not as good as they say. I bought this game a while ago when there was no demo for it only because I read some good reviews. after playing for about 4 levels I started to feel tired of the gameplay, it has a great story though I really liked the storytelling narrated like in a book and the characters are interesting too but the game felt like a chore after a while. Overall the game disappointed me but that doesn't mean it is a bad game. Expand
  4. Some great ideas implemented really reall well. It's just a shame that this game remains a bit of a short one trick pony, but what a very stylish pony it is! Expand
