7. Thimbleweed Park
If you've ever wanted to play as Bernard Bernoulli or Guybrush Threepwood, then this modern graphical adventure from the creators of Monkey Island and Maniac Mansion could be for you. Billed as both an homage and parody to its genre, the game succeeds admirably in both respects.
Thimbleweed Park murder occurs, prompting FBI agents Angela Ray and Alberto Reyes to investigate. From here, the game unfolds through flashback as you play through different characters in present day; eventually you'll control five distinct ones such as Ransome the Clown who's cursed to wear makeup forever due to insulting an ancient gypsy woman; Delores Edmund, Chuck Edmund's daughter; and even a ghost seeking redemption.
Puzzles in This Adventure Relies on logical multi-step mechanisms typical of adventure games. Like in Lucasarts games of old, an interface allows you to choose verbs from a list and click on hotspots onscreen for interaction with your world - this may prove tedious but is essential part of the experience!
