Much better than the third game, but after all, nothing beats Trine 2 for me, but personally really good experience and progress after the third game.

The 4th title from our beloved franchise is just as beautiful as the other Trine games with improvements in graphics and puzzles, this time a return to the roots of the series. I like the 2.5D approach and style, it feels more familiar and natural for this kind of game. This kind of format allows rich backgrounds and intricate level designs but also keeps the game simple and easy to navigate. I hate puzzles and this is where you'll spend most of the time , utilizing physics based interaction and character specific skill there is also times where you need to switch between characters and experiment with different strategies. I haven't tried the cooperative mode yet, because i didn't find a partner to play with me but single player experience was rich and rewarding. It was a stimulating adventure to pass certain puzzles and unlock new leves but it was worth my time and patience. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3278593362 With a fairy tale aesthetic and beautiful layered backgrounds the game offers incredible amount of details and a perfect game for the screenshot hunters.. The hidden areas and collectibles covers the exploration part of the game.. rewarding curiosity with treasure chests, lore and background stories of course if you solve the puzzles to reach them. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3283874794 In conclusion Trine 4 achieves originality by combining elements from earlier games with innovative ways of puzzle solving, a fresh but familiar experience with a decent narrative and unique charm. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3279609711 For me it was the same magical and beautiful indie game, i'm looking forward to find more secrets ,maybe play co-op in the future.. Features - Beautiful world design and stunning graphics - Clever puzzles and different ways to approach them and solve - A return to roots of the first two games - Balanced use of puzzles and combat Pros: - Great graphics and beautiful art - Simple combat with fluid animations ,smooth character switching and use of abilities - Sound Cons: - Combat is too easy and there is not enough enemy variety My review score Story - 7 Gameplay- 9 Graphics- 10 Sound - 10 Overall - 9 Great 2.5D platformer !

I can't recommend this game enough. A true classic and work of art. Game play is superb, the graphics are beautiful, and the vocals and sound track are fantastic. As a co-op puzzle solver, it might be the best experience I've ever had. The puzzles are not a brain strain, but are just fun. The boss enemies are easily handled with team work. I can attest that this game is geezer friendly. A delight for all ages.
