Featuring an all-new story that reunites Amadeus, Pontius, and Zoya, Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince returns to the magic of 2.5D with the puzzle-platforming gameplay that defined a genre in Trine 1 and 2. Play as the three iconic heroes in the most extensive Trine adventure yet, complete with stunning new environments and dynamic, physics-based puzzles that fans have grown to know and love. After years apart, the Astral Academy has requested help from the three heroes to find Prince Selius, whose intensely dark nightmares have begun to slip into reality and wreak havoc on the waking world. Encounter more epic boss fights than ever before, solve fascinating puzzles, unlock new skills, explore lush, vibrant landscapes, and experience a hauntingly beautiful new soundtrack by the composer of Trine 1-3.

Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince is a gorgeous and fun addition to a great puzzle platformer game series. I highly recommend it if you are a fan of the original trilogy or are in the mood for a truly magical platforming adventure.

Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince is good on its own, but it is in co-op where it truly shines the brightest.

Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince lacks in storytelling, but still is a massive improvement compared to Trine 3. Great puzzles, fun co-op and beautiful levels make this game worth the value.

Worth Playing

Overall, Trine 4 is a delightful game that's sure to satisfy anyone looking for a fun, light-hearted physics-based puzzle game. With roughly 10 hours of content, it's an easy recommendation if only to experience the game world's rich art design and clever puzzles. The puzzles aren't as complex as those found in Portal 2 or The Witness, but the variety of approaches is rewarding in its own way. For that reason alone, it's easy to recommend Trine 4, a game in a genre that rarely receives entries with this level of heart and soul in the art design department.

Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince, in addition to causing us an unexpected surprise when it was announced, has returned coming back to the right path that perhaps should not have left in the third part. Evolving all the good things about Trine 2, but borrowing the qualitative improvement from the audiovisual section of Trine 3, we find a beautiful game, with a very well-designed gameplay that will delight anyone who comes close to it.
