Twenty-five years ago, Ron Gilbert and Gary Winnick created the game that introduced the world to 2D point & click adventure games. Maniac Mansion was the first LucasArts adventure game, taking  the computer game world by storm with its compelling story, complex puzzles, cutting edge humor, engaging game play, and provided an entire generation with a new idea of what an adventure game could be. Some of the other titles these 2 legends have worked on include Monkey Island, Zak McKracken, and The Cave.

And now they are back together with an all new 2D point & click adventure with an old-school style.

Thimbleweed Park is a new game that cuts to the core of what made classic point & click adventure games so special, and done by the actual people who spawned the genre. It’s deep, it’s challenging, it’s funny, it’s everything you loved about adventure games.

The Story

Thimbleweed Park is the curious story of two washed up detectives called in to investigate a dead body found in the river just outside of town. It’s a game where you switch between five playable characters while uncovering the dark, satirical and bizarre world of Thimbleweed Park.
