Trine 2 demo

Date played: January 7th
Platform: PS3
Time played: 20 minutes
Session fun rating: 7/10

I played the short Trine 2 demo that is available on PSN and having played the first game recently, it's obvious that it's very similar in terms of mechanics. However, the characters now speak a lot more often, the camera moves around a bit more and the graphics are much improved.

Trine 2 is beautiful, even on PS3
The puzzles seemed relatively simple but it was also the beginning of the game. There are now cooler enemies that look like goblins. I also made some colorful plants grow by moving gutters so that water fell on their roots. The grown plants then turn into platforms for the Wizard, Knight and Thief to jump on and progress. Also, giant slug.
