Trine 2's online multiplayer also worked out very well in my time testing it, though, as with any online game, you'll find better results if you coordinate with friends rather than jumping into games with strangers – because, should another player drop out of the session, your adventure is also immediately ended. If you use a Wii Remote and Nunchuk instead, though, pointing at objects to levitate them or aim Zoya's arrows becomes easier. A variety of control schemes is implemented for several controller configurations, too, and each has it own appeal – using the GamePad you can conjure the wizard's blocks and platforms into existence using the touch screen.

The visuals are lavishly detailed, with an organic, living beauty that you can choose to view either on your TV or off – the whole game can be played solely on the GamePad if you choose. That investment of time, space and 20 bucks' worth of your money is well worth it, though, because Trine 2 shines on Wii U.

(See the trailer, embedded up above.) That download is a large one, though – much bulkier than any of the other Day 1 eShop-only releases in Nintendo's newest shop, so if you're planning to take the plunge, prepare to give up a bit more of your time to the downloading and installing process alongside a bigger chunk of your hard drive's free space. Trine 2 on the Wii U is labeled a 'Director's Cut,' and rightly so – it further expands the adventures of Amadeus the Wizard, Pontius the Knight and Zoya the Thief by integrating the content of the Goblin Menace expansion right into the initial download. I do love the way the bosses are foreshadowed early on in levels, though.

Merely crossing a chasm can be a real conundrum, but felling a giant beast is as simple as giving it a few whacks to its weak spots. While visually impressive, they don't require the same thought as the rest of Trine 2. The few boss fights prove slightly disappointing.

I find the game becomes easier this way because you've got more than just one brain working on problems and you can multitask, but it's still satisfying. Trine 2 is also very friendly about multiplayer gaming, allowing up to three players to join the adventure either locally or online. In a matter of moments you might slash through some goblins as the knight, switch to the thief to grapple to a high platform, then switch to the wizard to move a heavy block in front of a flamethrower. When playing by yourself you switch between the three heroes at will. That's really cool, but it would have been nice to get a heads-up before I found myself stuck at the bottom of an ice slope for a little too long. The wizard's platforms, for instance, can be stuck to swinging spiked maces, resulting in a pendulum conveyance. It does fail to teach the player some important mechanics, though, resulting in slight exasperation when you don't realize a solution is even possible. I love it when a game lets me off my leash and tells me 'have fun,' – and that's the kind of game Trine 2 is. The brilliance of Trine 2 is that it mostly leaves the choice of which hero to use up to you. You have three heroes at your disposal: a wizard that can conjure blocks and platforms, a thief with a bow and grappling hook, and a knight with sword, hammer, and shield. Players run from left to right through fantasy spectacles, surmounting obstacles and slaying a few goblins along the way. If you played the first Trine, you'll find a very familiar game here. Trine 2 easily makes for one of the prettiest games of the year. There is always something amazing to distract you. Each scene, from forests to caves to lazy beaches, shines with rich detail and startling lighting effects. The first thing I noticed about Trine 2 is its stunning visuals.
