Grim Fandango is an adventure game for the PC that I actually played from beginning to end. The main reason I was able to do that was the great story, hilarious characters and interesting locations in Grim Fantango. In this game you play as Manny Calavera who is a Grim Reaper. While working at his job, collecting the souls of the recently dead, Manny comes across a conspiracy at his work place. From here Manny's story begins. Manny's quest to save a women he met at work will lead him all over the Land of the Dea. The different locations in this game are truly out of this world. From the Dead City to a haunted forest and even under the sea, the locations were designed with great detail. The characters in Grim Fandango were also very memorable. With some pretty funny lines and great jokes.
Playing the game is fairly simple, you walk around and can press an action button to interact with items where possible. You can also use different items you find to solve puzzles and continue the story. The cut scenes in this game are one thing that stand out. The game itself is split into 4 years and after each year a great cut scene is played to explain what's happening. Of course, the best cut scene is at the end. Don't worry I won't spoil the story, but it's a great game and any adventure game fan should play it right away. Especially since there's hardly any adventure games coming out.
