Show a more of the same in new locations have been to follow the quick and easy way, but bet on strengthening and improving something that proved to work in the past is another story. And that is precisely what they have done in Frozenbyte with Trine 2 , a title from the beginning shows some of the great innovations of the best possible way, with clever puzzles that force us to either combine the skills of the three heroes to give with any of the many solutions that always meet such challenges. And now more than ever, we have a varied degree in which there are always several alternatives to address its challenges. Something even more power when playing as a team and worry that the three heroes cross a great chasm without dying in the attempt. One type of situations that give rise to some really fun when tested again and again until you find different solutions the most effective, however crazy that it (bring a character caught flying a barrel of dynamite lava jets is not very safe).
In this sense, the three original heroes in this sequel to repeat the same old skills as well as a few have been exploited novel really well for both the wizard Amadeus , the knight Pontius and the thief Zoya will be useful in all types of situations. This means that the magician can better defend themselves from enemy attacks thanks to his ability to levitate them, just as Pontius has won prominence in sections of puzzles thanks to its ability to move heavy objects or throw his great hammer of war some obstacles. The thief, as always, the character turns out to be more agile and versatile thanks to her bow and arrows of ice and explosive power of invisibility and ability to hold onto the surfaces of wood with his hook.
Among the new challenges, the team Frozenbyte has included a series of puzzles that force us to interact with different types of fluids such as water, lava or acid plus many others in which we must control air currents or fire. A fantastic addition to improving one of the less attractive aspects of its predecessor, which was precisely a lack of originality in his puzzles after a couple of hours and again solving the same problems. And now all is not limited to magic stacking boxes and tables, move heavy objects, or sway from side to side with the thief on a rope while the magician drives. Not surprisingly, as soon we may be guided streams to irrigate certain areas of the field, such as joining various sections of pipe with the magician to direct the wind to where we want, to propel, to clean poison-laden areas in the air … - , and even distributing portal mirrors concretely to resolve some of the most ingenious puzzles of the game.
The options are so broad that there are times when we surprise of all the possibilities offered by the game at every level, with results as spectacular as resourceful. And is that the level of detail is so high that there will be situations where that is unavoidable not to feel admiration for the magnificent work done by Frozenbyte both when considering these challenges, as having achieved a perfect balance of skills the three heroes.
A true fairy tale which also presents a melody varied and cheerful composer Ari Pulkkinen hands that marry well with each and every one of the game environments are presented. It is worth mentioning that has remained the remarkable Castilian dub the original title with the same voices for the three protagonists and the narrator, to which we add the fun comments elves to which we will measure. A lot of details that ultimately exalt this Trine 2 as one of the best games I have had occasion to try lately and a whole talent show by their creators, who have managed to get all the good the original and enhance it with new game options have been really good.
