[PC] Free - Delores: A Thimbleweed Park Mini-Adventure @ Steam & Epic

2580

A freebie released today from the developers of Thimbleweed Park “as a thank you to our fans, we are releasing it for free as something you can have fun with in these odd times.“

Also available through Epic games and now also Good old Games

The year is 1988. Adventure game developer Delores Edmund, on hiatus from her job at MMucasFlem Games, has returned to Thimbleweed Park for a quick vacation. While she’s home, she’s making some extra money as a photographer for the Thimbleweed Nickel News. Hey, game developers need to eat, too!

Thimbleweed Park hasn’t changed at all in the year since Delores has been away… or has it?

…Since when is the S&D Diner a five-star establishment?
…When did the PillowBear™ become all the rage?
…Why is Ransome the Clown suddenly winning humanitarian awards?
…How come no one seems to remember that dead body that turned up under the bridge a year ago?
…Can Thimbleweed Park get any stranger?!.

In a town like Thimbleweed Park, a side career in photojournalism is the least of your problems…

Mod note 30 Nov 2020: From sources here and here it doesn't look like this will be a paid game anytime soon. As such this should not be re-posted as a deal in future, even after 6 months has lapsed.

  • Do you just play this without downloading?

      You need to have the Steam desktop application installed before you can install and launch Delores: A Thimbleweed Park Mini-Adventure.

      • Yer I got that and I clicked play now and it installed a 47.1MB file

        That it?

          Yup. You must have missed the part where this is a "mini" adventure and it has pixel graphics.

            @wangasm: Thanks

            @wangasm: Probably confused because most modern games with pixel graphics still require a 2GB download.

            • @dcash: This is not a full game though, just one mini episode. The full original game is 1gb, which is currently 60% off

              • @wangasm: To be clear, this is not an episode from the existing Thimbleweed Park but a preview from the upcoming game with a new UI.

      • got it thanx

    I guess Lusander wouldn't be happy

      Who is Lusander?

      • +9

        Knock off Lysander

        • Ah, I see. Well, since it's a knock-off I can see why he or she would not be happy as original is always best.😉😂

  • Played this on Game Pass and loved it, but had to play it on casual so I’d finish it before they took it off. Thanks op!!

    Even though I love this type of game and am happy to know about it (thank you DB), technically, as an always free game this, according to the rules here, belongs in forums though as otherwise games like Fortnite could also be posted.

    LOL great end game credits. Donald Trump is an idiot!

    • You finished the game already?

      • Yep, took about 4 hours. It would have been shorter if I realised you could walk behind the old lady's shop.

  • Thanks OP, got them both.

    You fight like a dairy farmer.
