Throughout your adventure you’ll find orbs and potions which give you experience points.

As a result a lot of the time I felt a bit unsatisfied with how I progressed through the game as I frequently felt robbed of any sort of victory.Another strange design choice is the upgrade system which is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced in a game before. There are some unusual design choices in Trine 2, the strangest being that the puzzles are by no means fool proof and as such are very easy to break. Personally I was a bit annoyed that I couldn’t use the Pro-Controller in the single player mode since I wasn’t using the touch pad anyway.

For additional players there is a wide variety of control options available including Wii Remotes & Nunchuks, Wii Classic Controllers or WiiU Pro Controllers, so you’re free to use whichever method of control you feel most comfortable with. Personally I was completely satisfied with the twin stick controls. Personally when I was playing I chose not to use the touch pad as it would have involved gripping a stylus in one hand while trying to operate the left analogue stick in the other. It can also be used to draw new objects onto the screen and move around existing ones. As a result player one not only has the option of playing the game with the regular twin analogue controls, but can also take advantage of the touch pad for improved aim.

The WiiU game pad is compulsory whether you are playing a single or multiplayer quest.

Since there are three separate characters with individual skill sets there is quite a bit to remember when it comes to controls. The main theme which plays throughout the game really sticks in the mind and offers a lot of character to the game. The sound in this game is very fitting a mixture of sensual sultry music for the puzzle segments & more upbeat action pieces for the battle scenes. It’s wonderful to watch the background scenery change into elements that you can interact with. Once fully grown they produce leaves which has be used as ledges for the team to climb up. One of the mechanics you’ll encounter early on is the magical water which can be used help plants and vegetation grow. The graphics and the game play integrate beautifully with each other. I personally love how the interactive title screen in the director’s cut is set in a purple dusk rather than bright daylight. I actually think this version looks a little better than the original. I can’t emphasis enough how good this game looks. For example, although a chapter may begin in bright & sunny beach setting, you may end the same chapter in a dark & dingy castle on a stormy night.

Later chapters in this game not only look stunning but transcend in theme as you play them. The graphics immerse you into an enchanted fantasy world reminiscent of a fairy tale.

The locations are full of colour, depth, texture and tone. I try to keep things in perspective when it comes to video games but I doubt many would disagree when I say that visibly this game is a work or art. The first thing you’ll notice when you start Trine 2: The Director’s Cut is just how beautiful the graphics are. The apparatus you’ll encounter scattered throughout the chapters include such things as leavers, boulders, seesaws, rope pulleys, steam pipes and the like. These usually involve using the team’s mix of abilities to manipulate the landscape and surrounding apparatus to bypass obstacles and perils. The focus of this game is to find solutions to a gauntlet of physics based puzzles in order to create a safe passage for your team to progress. The team are summoned together by a mysterious artifact known as ‘The Trine’ which guides them through the overgrown forest to discover the dangers that are threatening the kingdom. Last but not least is Zoya the thief, who has amazing dexterity, a grappling rope and archery skills. The second playable character you encounter is Pontius the knight, who is the best character when it comes to combat. You start the game as Amadeus, a wizard who has the power to move object and create boxes & planks using his magic. The story of Trine 2: The Director’s Cut revolves around three characters. However, good things come to those who wait and as such ‘Trine 2: Director’s Cut’ (exclusive for WiiU) takes Frozenbyte’s classic adventure title ‘Trine 2’, adds some enhanced controls, a large expansion quest named ‘Goblin Menace’ and if you’re extremely good you can unlock a Nintendo exclusive chapter entitled ‘The Dwarven Caverns’. Anyone who was in the Nintendo camp during the last console generation would have missed out on one of the most stunningly beautiful platform puzzle games developed in recent years.
