Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power is a fairytale journey which takes you on a quest with three heroes: Amadeus the Wizard, Pontius the Knight, and Zoya the Thief. This tale of a grand adventure as well as the additional challenge levels provide true tests to the three heroes' skills in combat and of solving puzzles in the most creative ways.

Amadeus the Wizard, Pontius the Knight, and Zoya the Thief have slowly come to the conclusion that having their lives commandeered by a powerful magical artifact is not a desirable state of existence on a permanent basis.

The heroes try to return their extraordinary gifts to the Artifact called Trine, and so they meddle with powers beyond their understanding. Trine shatters. With a literally heartless ancient sorcerer on the loose, and only a broken artifact to guide them, the heroes must try and repair the damage they've caused... or the damage that might yet be done.

Frozenbyte has released a free content update for its the physics-based platformer Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power.

The update is available on Steam, GOG and Humble Store and includes a free new level, as well as official support for SteamOS and Linux. Also included are various minor fixes and improvements, such as mid-level checkpoints for the Lost Page levels.

The new level is a mini adventure featuring the three heroes and their (or mainly Pontius's) desire for some food - a cake, no less! As a response to fan feedback, the adventure is set in the Book theme that many fans fell in love with.

Frozenbyte CEO Lauri Hyvärinen commented: "This is a free update that we felt inclined to do for our fans. We would love to continue with the Trine series and this is our first tentative step in that direction, hopefully the first of many."

Included in the November 5th update are the following:

• A mini-adventure called "Quest for Cake"

• Checkpoints for Lost Pages
• A fix for the Wizard's box exploit
