Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy brings the series' biggest puzzling adventure yet
The heroes of Trine have returned for Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy. Amadeus the Wizard, Zoya the Thief, and Pontius the Knight are back for a new installment that promises our three Heroes their most action-packed journey yet.
