Good but overrated

I’m not sure why this has such great reviews. I love the retro graphics etc, but the story is just boring and nonsensical. Hard mode is very hard, mainly because things you tried previously that didn’t work, all of a sudden work later on, but you didn’t think to try them again because earlier it didn’t work! Without spoiling it, the ending is just odd and very unsatisfying. So many loose ends are never explained. Took me 16 hours to complete with hints. But i just got bored the longer it went on. The locations were all a bit too similar. The characters weren’t great either, although i did enjoy the clown. There are much better point and click games available on iOS. I’d recommend this only to long term fans of the genre, especially fans of the original Monkey Island and Maniac Mansion games. There are lots of easter eggs for those games throughout.

80’s style AWESOME game

Ron Gilbert did it again! I loved it! Brought me back to time when I played games like Maniac Mansion, Day of the Tentacle and Monkey Island. Thanks!

If you miss Monkey Island, play this!

I had a great time solving puzzles, playing as multiple characters and solving a pretty complex story. It reminds me of many days playing Monkey Island. Love the jokes, the ease of the game play, and the hint system that I tried really hard not to use. Great voice work too!

Spiel stürzt ständig ab

Thimbleweed Park ist einfach genial. Wer in den 90ern die Adventures von LucasArts geliebt hat wie z.B. Monkey Island, wird dieses Meisterwerk von Ron Gilbert ebenfalls lieben!
Allerdings kann ich auf meinem iPad 7. Generation seit iOS 18 es nicht mehr spielen. Entweder es stürzt sofort ab, wenn ich ein neues Spiel beginnen will oder es hängt nach ein paar Sekunden und stürzt dann ab.
Das hatte ich mit iOS 16 zumindest nicht. Hab das zwei Mal ohne jegliche Probleme damals durch spielen können.
Schade. Vielleicht besteht die Möglichkeit, dass das gefixt wird trotz älteren Tablet

More Point n Click!

Thimbleweed Park is just a fantastic throwback to the point and click era of gaming. Witty humor, clever puzzle, interesting setting, it’s got all the hallmarks of great adventure games. Plus, nods to X-files and other old school stuff.

Please, make more of Thimbleweed, or similar!!!!
So. Much. Fun.
MOOOOORRREEE!
PLEEEEEEAAAAAASSEEE!
