We've been following the development of Thimbleweed Park, a new point-and-click adventure from two of the original Maniac Mansion creators Ron Gilbert and Gary Winnick, for more than a year now, and today is a landmark day as the game has finally released… on some platforms. Back when the project was successfully Kickstarted in the fall of 2014, it just barely passed its last stretch goal that would ensure the game would make its way to mobile platforms. That is still planned, but first the game is launching today on Steam, GOG, and Xbox One with the mobile ports already started and set to hit in a few months. As a nice treat for us mobile gamers in the meantime, here's the brand new launch trailer for Thimbleweed Park.
I loved those old adventure games from the '90s, and Thimbleweed Park gives off the exact same vibe that those classics did back when I was a youngster. While the visuals and humor are right up the alley for this particular set of developers, I'm also really digging the full voice acting which brings these strange characters to life. If you just can't wait for the mobile version's release, feel free to grab the game on any of the platforms it launched on today, but rest assured we'll be following the progress of Thimbleweed Park for mobile and will bring you any updates as they happen.
