In Thimbleweed Park, a dead body is the least of your problems -- especially now that the game has received a big content update! The two biggest changes in this update are an in-game hint line and new conversations between playable characters.
In-Game Hint Line
Before there were walkthroughs and Let’s Plays, there were 1-900 numbers you could call when you were desperately stuck in an adventure game. (They cost $2 per minute!) We’ve brought back this classic feature with the HintTron 3000™. Dial 4468 (HINT) from any in-game phone to get context-sensitive hints for the part where you’re stuck. Luckily the HintTron 3000™ is absolutely free -- no outrageous phone bills from MMucasFlem!
New Conversations
Thimbleweed Park’s lead actors recently returned to the studio to record a bunch of new conversations amongst themselves. Now when two playable characters are sharing the screen, they can talk to each other instead of awkwardly standing around. Why? Because a lot of you asked for this feature, and we thought it was a good idea. Sometimes that’s all it takes. :)

Lost along a dusty stretch of highway, Thimbleweed Park is a neglected and forgotten place, home to the lost and abandoned.
This once proud town boasted an opulent hotel, a vibrant business district, and the state’s largest pillow factory. Now boarded up and falling down, the town stinks of a desperate longing to be what it once was.
A body is found in the river and no one seems to care – not the pigeon plumbers or the drunk passed out by the bushes, not the sheriff or the coroner or the giant talking slice of pizza. Everyone has their own troubles in Thimbleweed Park.
The mystery begins to unravel when two uninvited agents show up to “investigate” the murder. Before long a cursed clown, a disinherited game designer, and the ghost of a pillow salesman are entwined in a conspiracy that takes them all deeper than they ever knew possible.
In a town like Thimbleweed Park, a dead body is the least of your problems.
