This is probably the best game ever made. You must own this, if you dont. I hope you die. This is the last great game Lucas Arts made, before going crazy and slapping "Star Wars" on all there games. Ok, time for the review. Gameplay: I usually dont like adventure games, but the atmosphere and characters made me really want to play. Especially Manny Calavara, he's one of the coolest main characters EVER! Not only is it one of the hardest adventure games ever, it also has some simple mini games. But its an adventure, by this time I hope you understand. But ill explain, sometimes puzzles just require you using an item on a background object or person. But this game has some real brain scratchers, I won't spoil anything, but trust me, you'll need a strategy guide once and awhile. You can use a joypad, im assuming it works well. Graphics: Im betting when this game was released, people where sh!tting themselves on how awesome this game looked. The backgrounds... are undescribeable, they look awesome with a mexican influence. None of the characters look the same. Sound: Dont get me started, I could talk about the music all day. All, and I mean all the music is awesome. The characters have a distinct sound to them, especially Manny Calavara. He is probably the driving force to playing this game, he's very funny/sarcastic for a dead man. Value: You can't unlock anything, persay. But you can watch the movies over again. You can also read the transcripts. Plus since this game is very fun, you'll play it a few more times. I also recomend saving at fun spots. In the end, you should just buy it. Its 10$, its fun, it will work on new computers. It's probably the best game ive ever played, nothing compares to Grim Fandango. And thats sad, since i'll never see a great game like Grim Fandango again.
Adventure games have been around for many years, but very few have actually stood the test of time.One such game is 'Grim Fandango' STORY - The Story of Grim Fandango is the most bizzare story you'll ever come across.... Read Full Review
Point-and-Click Adventures. Love 'em or hate 'em, there's no denying that some of them are the most revolutionary games ever. And Lucas Arts have made some of the best of them. So, in 1998, when the chapter of adventure ... Read Full Review
