You will get stuck because every objective requires some I admit: this is my first journey into point and click, and, well, the impression that Thimbleweed Park gives me of the whole genre is just okay. The meta-humor veers between cute and "Jesus Christ we get it." The Twin Peaks trope is fine, if you like Twin Peaks. I admit: this is my first journey into point and click, and, well, the impression that Thimbleweed Park gives me of the whole genre is just okay. I think this game needs a few extra chapters where things go off the rails a little more slowly and more loose ends are tied up. Many interesting details in the story and objects in the world that do nothing or are irrelevant. There is a fetch quest that once you complete it does nothing. You can pick up many objects that are never used, which is disappointing. CONS: - First half of story is great, 2nd half is a huge mess that leaves a lot unexplained, it feels rushed.

But this was not a deal breaker for me, just a bit of a let down. Here we have this great conspiracy and what does it all build up to? A meta joke with no payoff. The story itself is pretty good but like most pretty good adventure game stories the ending can disappoint some people i know i felt that at the end. They’ve already payed the voice actors to record those lines, at least spice it up a little. I say almost-distinct because even though their backstories and motives are different, they all have the same lines of dialogue when it comes to interacting with mundane world objects which just comes off as lazy. Thimbleweed Park’s story centers around a small town conspiracy in which you play four almost-distinct characters, each with their own motivation.
