TRI: Of Friendship and Madness

In my opinion, go play He Who Watches demo instead, it's basically what I wanted to get out of this game but didn't quite get and I'm really looking forward to the full game release.

This is a tough game to review. I see other people complaining about it being too tedious (having to draw hundreds of triangles to progress in some areas) but I guess I'm OK with that kind of repetition. I see others complain about motion sickness, which has been a major problem with some other games, like Jazzpunk. I only felt a bit nauseous one time. Then others have said the game's puzzles are too easy since it's "just draw a bunch of triangles". That stops working pretty quickly since you can't build triangles on wood blocks, or out into space (usually). I made it to level 15 somehow, having had to look up walkthroughs about 4 or 5 times for previous levels where I had no idea how to progress. On level 15 I've got three rooms I can reach where either i have no idea how to solve the puzzle, or can't even figure out what the puzzle is in each room. In Portal, at the start of each level, there's a plaque that gives you a hint on what steps you have to take to exit the level. No such luck here. You can press H to see where the 3 foxes you must retrieve are, but that doesn't mean you just go to the location to get them, or that you can even figure out how to get to the location, since teleports may be involved. I was going to give an example of just one of the rooms and my failed attempt to solve it, but the explanation of how impossible discerning what's going on in the room let alone how to solve it would just sound like the ravings of a madman. Puzzles should have discernible solutions with subtle clues, not just a bunch of unrelated stuff in a room with no idea what to do with it, or worse, almost nothing in a room with no idea what to do. Then you have to wonder - do I need to bring something into the room from elsewhere? Where might that item be? No idea. Super frustrating. I could just look up how to solve all the spots I'm stuck on in a walkthrough, but then what's the point of playing the game?

Só queria deixar meu +1. Excelente jogo de puzzle com uma ideia original e de fritar a cabeça

I picked this up years and years ago and finally, around its 10 year anniversary, put in the hours to beat it. Tri offers a really interesting and unique traversal mechanic that I'm surprised I haven't seen elsewhere. It might have benefited from being shorter -- especially in the later levels, the apparent solution to collecting certain idols requires some unsatisfying tedium. But definitely try this out if you're looking for a puzzle platforming type game that is still fresh a decade later.

Absolute hidden gem. Amazing soundtrack. Highly recommend if you like open ended puzzles.

It starts really interesting, the artstyle is great and the music is quite fitting. But the puzzles are dragging on and on and the controls are kinda wonly, especially if you are top down on the ceiling and need to draw another triangle to get on a platform, and then suddenly you loose your feet and fall off. I think it would be enjoyable if it wasnt that long, i gave up after 4 hours, because it was just... not interesting enough.

光线有点折磨，虫子有点恶心，但还好占比不是很多，虫子也就一个小场景有。整体来说体量不错，打折购入性价比很高。 如果通关不了可以看这个攻略： https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYcobq59LTI&list=PLC5WiyEwX70DKiGvneh-rz4wS2FJaPWfd

One of the best games I have ever played!
