Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince Reviews

good puzzle game

awesome game to play with friend really like it

Great game to play with friend, fun puzzle and cool gameplay mechanic.

If you're searching for a puzzle-platform 3 player game, look no further, that's probably the best with Trine 5. (well I don't really think there are other 3 player puzzle platformers but) It's like Trine 2, only more refined, twice as long, and much prettier.

Just did a replay after some years. This was really a real redemption arc for the Trine series after what happened to the third game. It goes back to basics and makes it even more fun and more beautiful. Puzzles are clever and satisfying. Definitely a can't-miss game for its generation, even as a single-player game.

As good as the previous in every way, probably better since these have better technology, but I think this one has the best puzzles and character skills interactions. They're incredibly fun, one of the best puzzle platformers I've ever played, probably. The fight bits, seem to be quite bland at the beginning, but as you gain skills, you can spice up how you defeat them. The boss fights were great up to where I played. Excellent game, highly recommended!

Trine 4 is what you get when you merge all the best parts of the previous 3 entries. It features the reworked controls introduced in Trine 3, but updated for the 2D perspective. Co-op is more balanced than in previous games and still works flawlessly. So far it's the best Trine game and it's one of the best co-op games to play with people that don't really play games. DLC is well worth the price/time as it features some of the best levels. [h1]Steam Deck[/h1] Just like the previous 3 games Trine 4 works amazingly on the deck. I have played through the whole game with the deck docked to TV and it was perfect.

After Trine 3, what a masterpiece... The game is great, the best in the series so far in my opinion. Fun narrative, cool new mechanics, an attempt at actually having bosses... Still the Trine classic small but hilarious bugs here and there (that make the game much more fun and enjoyable), an easy recommend, especially if you like the series. My only criticism is that the story of the third opus was completely dropped. But to be honest, is this that bad of a thing...?

Played with my girlfriend. Was okay, sometimes nice, sometimes a bit repetetive. But for some reason it's not possible to save your progress at the end on act IV and V. I cannot tell you how annoying it was to start the last act 3 times only to do it all again in the next session. After the 4th time we deleted it without finishing. I officially hate this now. Please manage the option to save your progress, or at least gimme a code to unlock the single chapters in an act (so I dont have to start all over again) - they figured this out in the early 90's, why don't you have it now?

Trine 4 is hands down my favorite entry in the series. I know a lot of people say Trine 1 or 2 were better, but for me, this one just nails it. The puzzles and exploration are pure joy, especially in co-op. Me and my friend had a ton of 'I don't think we were supposed to solve it like that' moments—which, honestly, made it even more fun 😄 The only downside for me is the combat. It’s not terrible, but something about it just feels off. I’m not a game designer, so I won’t pretend to have the solution, but regular fights often feel like a chore. Boss fights are a bit better, but overall combat could use some love. And as always, Amadeus in combat is... well, yeah. What are we supposed to do with him? Zoya carries the damage, Pontius is decent—until you face something that laughs at melee and you just chill while your friend on Zoya carries the fight for you. Still, despite all that, the game is an absolute blast and easily the best Trine experience I’ve had so far. And I understand perfectly well that the game is not about battles at all, but since they were added to the game I wanted to note this. I want to point it out again that the main aspect of the game which are puzzles, platforming and exploration and they are made wonderfully!
