Thimbleweed Park has been ported to PSVITA using a wrapper that runs the official Android ARMv7 executable. The port involves loading the executable into memory, resolving its imports with native functions, and applying necessary patches to ensure smooth execution. As a result, the game can run natively on the PSVITA without requiring full emulation, thanks to the creation of a minimalist Android environment.
This is a wrapper/port of the point-and-click adventure game Thimbleweed Park for the PS Vita.

User guide

Welcome to Thimbleweed Park, home to 80 eccentric individuals. You won't find a place quite like this anywhere else, with its haunted hotel, abandoned circus, burnt-out pillow factory, and even toilets running on vacuum tubes.

Despite having nothing in common, five individuals have found themselves drawn to this rundown town, unaware of their deep connections to each other. However, someone is watching their every move.

Agent Ray's true motives are unknown, and will she succeed in her mission? Junior Agent Reyes appears to be withholding information about a factory fire from 20 years ago. Franklin the ghost longs to speak to his daughter once more. Can Ransome the Beeping Clown transform into a decent person? Will Delores, an aspiring game developer, give up her dreams to support her family?

And why does nobody seem to care about the dead body pixelating under the bridge?

As the night unfolds in Thimbleweed Park, these questions will be answered, and you'll find yourself questioning everything you thought you knew. In a town like this, a dead body is just the beginning of your troubles.
