How co-op works
Up to four players complete the campaign in local or online co-op as Amadeus, Zoya, and Pontius. The team combines character-specific abilities for physics puzzles and combat whose difficulty adapts to the number of players.
About this game
Trine 5 sends the wizard Amadeus, thief Zoya, and knight Pontius on another cooperative puzzle platformer through a gorgeous fairy-tale kingdom. Three players work together, each controlling one hero whose unique abilities unlock the path forward through environmental puzzles and light combat encounters.

Each hero brings a distinct toolkit: the wizard conjures boxes and planks, the thief fires arrows and swings on a grappling hook, and the knight bashes and deflects with his shield. Puzzles demand creative combinations of these skills, rewarding groups that communicate and experiment together. The hand-drawn art and orchestral score set a charming backdrop for sessions that blend problem-solving with the occasional scrap against clockwork enemies.
Trine 5 supports online co-op, local couch co-op, split-screen, and LAN play, making it flexible for different group setups. Whether solving puzzles on the same screen or coordinating remotely, the game thrives on collaborative moments where everyone's contribution matters.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I play Trine 5 solo, or do I need other players?
You can play solo and freely switch between all three heroes yourself, or you can team up with up to two other players in co-op. Each hero has unique abilities, so playing alone means juggling all three skill sets, while co-op lets each player specialize in one character.
What co-op options does Trine 5 support?
Trine 5 offers online co-op, local couch co-op, split-screen, LAN play, and Steam Remote Play Together. You can play with friends on the same screen or connect remotely, giving you plenty of flexibility for different group setups.
How important is communication and teamwork in Trine 5?
Communication is key. The puzzles are designed around combining the wizard's conjuring, the thief's grappling hook and arrows, and the knight's shield abilities. You'll need to coordinate and experiment together to find creative solutions, making it a genuinely collaborative experience.
Is Trine 5 mostly puzzles or combat?
It's primarily a physics-based puzzle platformer with light combat encounters against clockwork enemies. The focus is on solving environmental puzzles using each hero's unique abilities, with combat serving as an occasional change of pace rather than the main attraction.
