How this score was computed
The VGC Score is a weighted blend on a press-comparable 0-100 quality scale. Steam approval rates are first calibrated (95% positive on Steam ≈ 89.5 quality, since Steam approval skews high). Press and tracked creator reviews each count ~2x a player review and share one cap against player evidence (creator buy/skip calls pool into an approval rate, calibrated like Steam approval); all-time sentiment is capped and halved (it's context, not verdict); reviews of the current build carry the most weight when a fresh patch anchors the window; and a 'typical game' prior keeps small samples from pegging the scale. Because press reviews and Metacritic user aggregates describe the launch build, their weight decays as the game ages (3-year half-life after a 1-year grace). That's how a game that launched rough can outgrow its old reception once updates win players over. Reviews under 2h playtime (the refund window), non-Steam activations, and free copies are downweighted.
| Component | Positive | Quality (0-100) | Weight (pseudo-reviews) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Press reviews (OpenCritic) | – | 81 | 4 |
| All-time Steam reviews | 96% | 90 | 1000 |
| Metacritic user ratings | – | 78 | 1 |
| Post-patch Steam reviews (trust-weighted) | 93% | 87 | 1586 |
| Calibration prior (typical game) | – | 72 | 50 |

“Trine Enchanted Edition is a beautiful relaxing game, which is great fun alone or in a group. In some passages you have to think a bit about how to get further, but you probably won't get stuck anywhere during the game. The level of the enemies is also not very challenging, but it gets a lot higher towards the end. All in all, Trine Enchanted Edition is a very good piece of work that brings us an extraordinary experience. The game's artwork will certainly enchant you, whether you're fighting in the night forest or jumping over fierce blades in the underground. What's disappointing about Trine Enchanted Edition is the really short game time. In fact, you enjoy the game so much that you could have stayed with it for much longer. If you like to bother your head, train your patience on the rotating platforms and enjoy the fairy-tale beautiful environment, then you should definitely give Trine Enchanted Edition a try.”

“Trine: Enchanted Edition is a nice visual update of a classic puzzle platformer. Featuring consistently clever challenges, jaw-droppingly gorgeous visuals, and a smart script, it'll likely charm your pants right off. A lack of variety and slightly shonky combat certainly mars the experience, but not enough to ruin the game's solid core mechanics.”

“Trine: Enchanted Edition is a good game, well made and competent, but not necessarily for me. I can appreciate what it has accomplished, but its slow, methodical brand of puzzle platforming and the “meh” combat leave me wanting.”

“Trine’s first entry is a marvelously-crafted mix of RPG and platforms which includes ingenious level design, a very attractive audio-visual component and a very captivating storyline. It might not excel as much as its sequel but it works as a perfect introduction to the series.”

“After nearly a decade, Trine Enchanted Edition still looks and plays as wondrously as ever. Its progressive reward system and ability to cater for gameplay variety keeps the adventure entertaining for the half a dozen hours or so it takes to complete the game. As a result, it suits the Nintendo Switch nicely despite the fact that the importance of a Right Stick makes split Joy-Con accessibility a missing feature.”

“Trine is a colorful action-platform adventure with visually rich settings that will delight fans of the genre. It also has a very careful sound section, with beautiful melodies setting each level, which contribute to complete a game that, without being perfect, has very high production values. Totally recommendable.”
