The usual mediocre story-driven stuff.
To the usual moron (SabbaRoy) who wrote, "eliminating verbs, puzzles and inventory to make room for branching story and a memorably diverse cast". (the same copy/paste review for all of these kind of "adventures") It's absolutely NOT necessary to eliminate puzzles and the overall gameplay with the excuse for better story and diverse characters. Guess what? You can have it both Einstein! Thimbleweed Park had it all, both good puzzles/story and diverse characters. It was a success and a very enjoyable adventure game. It seems that the new generation of developers are very lazy or untalented to make real full package adventures, they're happy just making mediocre story/walking simulators. (That's fine, but you'll never get money from me and many others) Those kind of "adventures" have nice pixel art but overall hollow and soulless gameplay without the good old magic. Avoid if you want gameplay in your games.
