THE BEST adventure game I've ever played. And I've played my fair share of them - all the classics from Lucas Arts; modern ones like Technobabylon; some Telltale games before they got into their 'interactive movies' thing; lots of Russian adventure games from the 90s; even the old obscure, but still awesome ones, like Blazing Dragons on PS1.

Not a single puzzle in Thimbleweed Park felt like it was a leap in logic - a flaw that every adventure game has. I've never had to consult a walkthrough or even lookup a hint, yet the game never felt easy (I was playing on Hard difficulty). I got stuck a couple of times, but somehow I always came up with a solution, which was very satisfying. And it never felt cheap, or stupid.

And once you get the map you can move around the areas fast, unlike other adventure games. So when you're stuck it doesn't feel like you're spending most of your time watching your characters slowly walking around from area to area, forcing you to lookup a hint.

All the characters were likeable and interesting, jokes were spot on, music was awesome. Bottom line - if you're into adventure games buy this now! Don't wait for sale, it's worth every penny. I really hope they make a second game and it turns into a trend!

P.S. My favorite character, Ransom The Clown, bears a strange resemblance to my favorite stand-up comedian Bill Burr... Hmm, I wonder if he was an inspiration. :)
