Trine 2

One of the most beautiful games ever made, and a puzzle-platformer good enough to match it.

Trine 2 is a 2011 puzzle-platformer developed and published by Finnish studio Frozenbyte, and the sequel to Trine (2009). Players switch between three heroes, Amadeus the wizard, Zoya the thief, and Pontius the knight, using each character's abilities to solve physics-based puzzles and navigate a hand-painted fantasy world. The game supports single-player and up to three-player co-op, both local and online. In 2013 it was combined with the Goblin Menace expansion to form Trine 2: Complete Story.
