About this game

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.

Ratings and reviews

wow what a amazing voice acting job. it's so funny. you actually have to solve a murder. the controls are very easy. you must give this a try. I started playing just for giggles and I been stuck for hours. amazing story awesome characters and beautifully designed pixels. this is all I wanted in a game. adventure. detective work. creepy. funny. can't forget them beautiful pixels. good job team. pls pls MAKE MORE GAMES!!!!! :)

The concept is fun, and the UI/Ambience is nostalgic. I had a good time playing through the stories in the beginning, but, as the game progressed, the puzzles became too cryptic/outlandish and the plot is sidestepping. Overall, the game is fine. But, the story is somewhat tarnished, like, the characters were really unique in their own ways, especially the clown.

Point and click adventure with the possibility to switch characters and a thoughtful, fun, and nerdy ending. The only criticism I have is that for some puzzles, if you don't pick the right verb or the right order of objects, they won't be solved. This led me to use the hint system more often than desirable and be annoyed that really I had already found the solution. But I guess this is part of the retro design. The game itself was overall great. Wholehearted recommendation, worth every penny!
