Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince:Heroes crossing rocks by the water
Heroes crossing rocks by the water1 / 10

Combine the heroes’ abilities to solve puzzles in a world haunted by a prince’s nightmares.

What makes it fun

  1. Puzzles that change with your party

    Puzzles adjust to the number of players. Return with friends to a place you cleared alone, and you can work out a different way through.

  2. Find your own way through

    Stack the wizard's conjured boxes to reach a ledge, or combine the heroes' abilities to work a contraption. These physics puzzles leave room for solutions you come up with yourself.

What sets it apart

A reviewer found it funny to advance by stacking boxes, but said relying on this reduced their motivation to solve puzzles normally. Whether improvising a bypass appeals more than working out the mechanism is a useful distinction.
