Description
Welcome to Thimbleweed Park. Population: 80 nutcases.

A haunted hotel, an abandoned circus, a burnt-out pillow factory, a dead body pixelating under the bridge, toilets that run on vacuum tubes... you’ve never visited a place like this before.

Five people with nothing in common have been drawn to this rundown, forgotten town. They don’t know it yet, but they are all deeply connected. And they’re being watched.

...Who is Agent Ray really working for and will she get what they want?
...What does Junior Agent Reyes know about a 20 year old factory fire that he’s not saying?
...Will the ghost, Franklin, get to speak to his daughter again?
...Will Ransome the *Beeping* Clown ever become a decent human being?
...Will aspiring game developer Delores abandon her dreams and stick by her family?
...And most importantly: how come no one cares about that dead body?

By the end of a long, strange night in Thimbleweed Park, all of this will be answered -- and you’ll question everything you thought you knew.

In a town like Thimbleweed Park, a dead body is the least of your problems.

Potential wasted by bad ending

As an aside: The "in-jokes" option seems wholly unnecessary to me (I say, "leave 'em in") but there's no real harm in having the option. This game has some good parts. Ransome the Clown was funny. It was great to play an old-fashioned point-and-click adventure with nice graphics. The opening location is terrific. A murder mystery should be a fun plot to solve but sadly, the game is ruined with a silly, terrible ending. I hope we can get better writing the in the future. I would love to continue supporting these games but not with such an ending.

Not what I expected

I liked the idea of these old-timers re-releasing a game. And there's a good amount of humor in the game. The game starts off really well... But quite quickly you've seen everything and it's just running around the same places. Then the number of interactions with new NPCs ramps down towards the end of the game. And I found the actual ending to be REALLY disappointing. It's like they ran out of budget and just used development sketches as padding. Doesn't leave you with a satisfied feeling.

Comfy Game But Plot Goes Off The Rails

Thimbleweed Park goes off the rails a bit near the end but it’s still a good game and has a lot of positives. The game has a great setting in the town; great characters; great dialogue; and great humour. The puzzles are a bit of a mixed bag. One thing the game didn’t do was make me go around trying random objects together in order to see what works which I applaud. The puzzles at least follow logic and reason, usually. Some were better than others but none made me filled with rage which a lot of games in this genre do. I do wish that you could have moved the characters as a group as sometimes moving all four to the same location takes more time than it would if you could do so. I also wish that I didn’t have to click “use” every time to open a door and could just click on the door. I also wish I could skip the audio of dialogues because sometimes if I accidentally clicked on a person I would have to hear things I had already heard and it was annoying. The map being able to fast travel was a god send. The game also does a good job of having their to do lists is you have a good idea of what you have to do although they could have done a better job giving hints as to where certain things were. There is an in game hint system where you can call a number in game for hints. I thought this was a fantastic idea but found the few times I used it that the hints didn’t help at all. Still the game did a fantastic job of recreating tropes from old school adventure games. What I mean in my original statement about the game going off the rails is that I didn’t like where the plot went in the last bit of the game. I wasn’t overly happy with many of the resolutions of the characters or with the general direction the story took. It made sense given the clues, I just wasn’t a huge fan I guess. The graphics of the game are what they are. As far as pixel games go things at least looked distinct and could be told apart. The voice acting was well done.

Nice attempt that falls flat constantly.

TL;DR = Games released 30+ years ago are still better than this. As others have said, it starts off strong and feels as if it will go somewhere with entertaining characters. Instead we get dry (Mars dry) "humor" from the lead characters that is uninsprired. The voice acting is in between amertuerish and "we hired Lorenzo Lamas" quality. If this were a spoof on the games of old I could understand, but it is supposed to be serious. It is not. The many puzzle have almost zero clues, end up making little sense, like, at all. (I played Hugo growing up) To put the cherry on the cake, a long running joke with a fould mouthed character that is *bleeped* that works given the style of game. They went greedy, took already recorded lines, and just uncensored them to sell as DLC. Rubbish. And boy howdy did the ending make me want a refund. And defenestration. Few games make me feel like I wasted my time, but by the end, yeah, I want my time back.
