For today and the foreseeable near future, Amazon is offering the game Trine for download for $7.
Last year when this game came out I gave it a try and it completely consumed me for about two weeks. The game is a platformer that consists of you navigating through dungeons and forests while alternating through three different character types to fit the given situation you are in.
There is a Wizard, an Assassin, and a Warrior.
The Wizard can conjure up floating platforms and telepathically move things which are out of reach.
The Assassin can shoot arrows and can swing around on her grappling hook.
And the Warrior is all about brute force, moving obstacles, or crushing ones too big to move.
The game is a perfectly balanced, and is one of the best modern platformers I have played.
Check out the trailer and seriously consider giving this game a download.
It’s only $7!
As you can see, it’s focused heavily on physics-based puzzles, which might strain some older PCs, so definitely check the system requirements before purchasing it.
But I do believe an Xbox Live Arcade and a Playstation Online version are in the works…
