Our Expert Score

95/100

Thimbleweed Park is a love letter to the golden era of LucasArts adventure games, and it feels right at home on mobile. Ron Gilbert and Gary Winnick have crafted a mystery that is both nostalgic and modern, featuring a 'verb-slab' interface that works surprisingly well with tap targets. The game's five playable characters allow for complex, multi-layered puzzles that require genuine lateral thinking.

The voice acting and atmosphere are impeccable—dripping with eerie, Twin Peaks-esque vibes and self-aware humor. It’s a massive game with a 'Casual' mode for those who want to focus on the story and a 'Hard' mode for the seasoned veterans who miss the pixel-hunting days. It is, without a doubt, one of the best adventure games on the platform.

A brand new adventure game from Ron Gilbert and Gary Winnick, creators of the classics Monkey Island and Maniac Mansion! Play as five characters to uncover the surreal mystery of Thimbleweed Park -- a town where a dead body is the least of your problems.

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 Thimbleweed Park 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.

Key Features:

- From Ron Gilbert and Gary Winnick, creators of Monkey Island and Maniac Mansion.

- 5 playable characters who can work together… or get on each other’s nerves.

- Not a walking simulator!

- Satisfying puzzles intertwined with a twisty-turny story that will stay with you.

- 1980s-style telephone hint line gives in-game puzzle help -- if you want it

- A vast, bizarre world to explore at your own pace.

- Casual and Hard modes with varied difficulty.
