Ron Gilbert was once a driving force in the creation of the classic point-and-click genre and after having been quiet for a long time, a few years ago, Gilbert was back with a new adventure called Thimbleweed Park, and both the press and players absolutely loved it as it offered everything they used to love; quirky characters, great story and clever comedy.
Since then, it's been pretty much quiet from Gilbert. But this weekend, he finally revealed a return to the lovely world of Thimbleweed Park, and not only that - he also stealth released some content. Can't get much better than that, right? Well... it actually can. It's free.
Delores: A Thimbleweed Park Mini-Adventure is the name of the game, and as the name implies, Dolores is the main character. She is now a photographer for the Nickel News and awaits new adventures. Or as the official description puts it:
"Thimbleweed Park hasn't changed at all in the year she's been away... or has it?"
