So where to begin. If you have played the previous Trine games you are in for a bit of let down with this one. I got Trine 2 from a friend when it was on sale. Trine 2 was an amazing game. I got immediately hooked and played through the game in a couple days. Trine 3 however as you can see only took me 6.5 hours to beat at 100% completion. Probably could do it in 4 if not for the 100% and 2-3 if not for the wonky controls and weird 3D. Trine 3 steps away from the standard 2D side scroller that was Trine 2 and tries to incorporate 3D. Its different, not horrendous, but not very welcoming either. I could take it or leave it. However its what makes the puzzles difficult. The controls because its now a 2D/3D hybrid are wonky. It plays like the original Mario 3D world from way back. Again its more different than horrible but because its literally the only thing that adds to the game play time its not very welcomed. They also for what ever reason removed the tech tree and most of the characters abilities.

My biggest issue with this game, is its unfinished. It literally just ends, and not like oh I can't believe they ended the story like this. It just stops. The story says something to the effect only a few more to go and this adventure will be complete. Then BAM rolls credits. It would be like watching the matrix and they get to the elevator seen and half way through the bullet time they roll credits.

I read a post from the Dev's with their horrific attempt at apologizing. They should have said instead of trying to make people feel sorry for them they spent so much money on developing the game, "Hey everyone thank you so much for supporting us through the years. We are so regretful that we released this game unfinished. Due to poor project management and gross neglect on our part we have failed you as a Development studio. There is no excuse for this. It is our hope you do not hold this against us because you are what made us successful. At this time we do not have any plans to continue this serious but will at the minimum put out a graphical ending to the game free of charge."

Idk even then I would be a little aggravated...

So if you are with me thus far. Let em also say I got this game on sale. It is 100% worth what I paid for it. But for anyone who paid retail. Im sorry.

With all the negatives this game has, it is graphically stunning and crazy artistic. You can stop and look at any area of the game and it could be a wallpaper. They also improved the character models which was a nice add.

Overall because this game was incomplete im going to give it a 4/10. If you played the series pick it up to gather some more of the story. If this is your first engagement into the serious DONT BUY THIS GAME. Buy Trine2. Its half the price and 10 times the game.
