Released in 2017, Thimbleweed Park is a LucasArts-style point-and-click adventure about murder in a small town, headed up by LucasArts veterans Ron Gilbert and Gary Winnick. All that LucasArts pedigree added up to an 84% score in our review, on the strength of "challenging puzzles, oddball characters, and an intriguing, mystery-laden plot"—and of course the familiar visual style that immediately conjures thoughts of Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, and...

I drip-feed roguelikes into my gaming schedule: one too many total resets and my brain could break beyond repair. I always knew this wasn't an unusual approach but I didn't ever think it would be an opinion I'd share with one of my favourite filmmakers, Guillermo del Toro. But the world is a strange place.
