Thimbleweed Park Reviews
A return to the origins of the point&click adventure, by the same authors of those classic adventures. Excellent in all its aspects, with several levels of reading and a melancholic point at the end.

Generally speaking, it’s hard to tell that this is a game that was developed in the 21st century let alone released in 2017. The Kickstarter campaign proclaims “It’s like opening a dusty old desk drawer and finding an undiscovered LucasArts adventure game you’ve never played before.” I would go a step further and say it’s as if Ron Gilbert and Gary Winnick, the creators of “Thimbleweed Park” and pioneers behind masterpieces such as “Maniac Mansion” and “Monkey Island,” challenged themselves to make something they could hypothetically take on a time machine back to the late 80s and introduce with minimal disruption to the future. Players with fond memories from that time period won’t miss a beat. The style and feel are certainly on point.
Thimbleweed Park is an extraterrestrial joy and the reinvigoration the genre has desperately needed
Thimbleweed Park is probably the best detective adventure game released in recent years and a great tribute to retro gaming classics.

While the ending is weak, the gameplay and puzzles make up for this nostalgic game.
Thimbleweed Park is a return to the form for Ron Gilbert. It provides an engaging experience with well written characters that has the potential to achieve cult status among fans.
Thimbleweed Park has its rough edges but you can't find any great adventure game the moment, so it's the best choice for the fans of the genre. With Thimbleweed Park, Ron Gilbert and Gary Winnick once again proved that they know how to make a great adventure game. The game has done a great job in storytelling and puzzle design and if you miss the classic adventure games of the old times, we definitely suggest a trip to the Thimbleweed park.

Thimbleweed Park provides a very intriguing, out of the box story and well thought out characters, but the determination to adhere to retro adventure game mechanics can be a bit of a hindrance.
Thimbleweed Park has more than made good on its promise, bringing the joys of pointing, clicking, and verb usage to the modern era.
I’ve missed having a great adventure game to play, and thanks to the skilled veterans at Terrible Toybox, this one is up there as one of the best ever.
Thimbleweed Park is endlessly entertaining, with clever humor and several references to classic adventure games
You certainly get your $20’s worth out of Thimbleweed Park. The voice cast doesn’t elevate the script in the way they always did in the LucasArts “talky” days, but an enjoyable, self-referential story and hundreds of puzzles to solve make it worthy of a place on your shelf next to Maniac Mansion and Monkey Island.
Thimbleweed Park was a blast providing a lengthy story and interesting characters to control at any moment.
An enjoyable trip to the past that old school adventure gamers have been waiting for.
Another great adventure game from Ron Gilbert. Maniac Mansion fans, you must play this ASAP.

Thimbleweed Park is the perfect love letter to anyone that fell in love with the genre all those years ago.
Pays wonderful homage to its adventure gaming ancestors, including the humour and the tedium.
A real pleasure for point and click lovers. It's not only superb on its own merit, but also as a homage to the great classics of the genre.

Pixel perfection
Don't let the old-school look and feel hold you back. Thimbleweed Park is an amazing point 'n click adventure with some of the funniest cast I've seen in years.
