"Recently, a few Kickstarter games, which also had an emphasis on nostalgia and revival, have fallen short of their expectations. The biggest example is Mighty No. 9, which not only faced significant issues with delays, but also failed to live up to the prowess of its spiritual successor, Mega Man. It seemed that Mighty No. 9 lacked the essence of what made Mega Man great and was seen as a failure among fans. Thimbleweed Park is a shining example of how to create a successor to a classic game because it retains all of the core elements while offering something new."

The Nintendo Switch Point & Click Sale is offering discounts as high as 76% off for adventure games on the Nintendo Switch.

Games as an interactive medium regularly break the fourth wall. There are entire games built around coming to terms with such a change in awareness.
Agreed. Delivered exactly what was promised.
