I still haven't played through all of Thimbleweed Park, but I managed to get my GF into adventure games after I bought it for her on Switch and she played through the entire game.

It's a fantastic game, It's basically what I always wanted out of an adventure game when I was a kid, and what's more the touch screen is a perfect interface for adventure games.

It was disheartening when 3D FPS games took over in the late 90s and MS fortified that with advertisements targeting the 'bro' segment for their new Xbox console and Halo franchise.

I was worried that Grim Fandango (still my favourite, omg that soundtrack) was the swan song of the genre but I'm so pleased to see that gaming as a whole has exploded and game development is so much more accessible than it used to be so that the genre has found it's niche. I genuinely think that an ipad mini form factor is utterly perfect for the genre so it pleases me that kids of a new generation can explore these neat little story worlds once again.

Also it's good to see that Disney isn't smothering the video game IP that they got when they bought LucasFilm. It seems like this is them testing the waters, and I hope that it is a resounding success that encourages them to do more with that goldmine that is LucasArts.
