Gameplay
Like Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince, its predecessor, A Clockwork Conspiracy is a 2.5D side-scrolling video game. The game features 20 levels[1] and three playable characters: Amadeus the Wizard, Zoya the Thief, and Pontius the Knight.[2] The game introduces new abilities for the returning characters: Amadeus can now reverse gravity, Zoya has access to ricochet arrows, and Pontius can use a throwing sword, creating new anchor points for transversal. As players progress in the game and complete quests, they will collect experience, allowing them to unlock more abilities for each character.[3] According to the developer, combat in Trine 5 is more challenging than Trine 4, with the game introducing multi-phase boss fights.[4] As with previous games in the series, the game has a large focus on physics puzzles. New elements, including air, light, magnets, and electricity, are introduced in Trine 5.[3]
The game's campaign supports both local and online multiplayer.[2] There is also a four-player cooperative multiplayer mode, allowing players to utilize different combinations of characters. Difficulty of the game's puzzle, combat and resurrection can be adjusted separately.[3]
Development
Series developer Frozenbyte and publisher THQ Nordic officially announced the game in April 2023.[5] According to the team, combat in the game is "organic", and more similar to Trine 2 than Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince.[1] The game was released on August 31, 2023, for Windows PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X and Series S.[6]
Reception
According to review aggregator Metacritic, the game received "generally positive reviews" upon release.[7]
