two big things got me to pick up grim fandango. first, its reputation: it's lauded as one of the best adventure games out there—and i can understand why! second, its aesthetics. there's something endearing about playing a low-poly, early 3D game from the '90s, and its art direction holds up incredibly well. the game's technical limitations tend to compliment its art direction: the blocky models work with the art deco and day of the dead aesthetics, and the fixed-camera 3D motivated every screen to be composed with intent. even despite some backgrounds and assets being low-res, everything just looks really, really good. the soundtrack ties it all together: its dramatic, punchy, and elevates the game. my favorite part about the game was its writing. it's witty, delightful, and really a treat to listen to. i love hearing manny talk and interact with other characters and the world. i love the way that you can't tell who would pan out as a side character or as a main character; everyone is written equally well and all contribute to fleshing out the world and its story. the backbone of grim's story is its characters, and it's a solid structure: my main motivation was to see where the story would lead and what conversations i would get to witness as a player. while the aesthetics and writing make the game feel timeless, the gameplay was a stark reminder that, yes, this is a ten year old remaster of a twenty-seven year old game. i'm willing to place some of the burden on myself: this was the first real point-and-click adventure game i've played, so there was some onboarding in understanding the puzzle structure and design. a common gripe, though, is that some puzzles can get frustrating and esoteric. i referred to a guide often. readability issues didn't help, either: sometimes i would get stuck because i couldn't tell what was an interactable and what was a background element. it was hard to tell what was an interactable and what was a background element. sometimes puzzles required waiting a LONG time to try again, which sucked. that's not to say that the gameplay wasn't all bad, though. when it clicks, it CLICKS. while a lot of the game is composed of linear puzzles, year 2 involved tackling several problems at once and unraveling a web of connections, which was fun to sit back and piece together! the controls were also a big issue for me. i played primarily with a controller using tank controls which, although there was a learning curve, i got used to. unfortunately, sometimes the collision would be buggy and make playing with tank controls impossible. stairs and other areas would be impossible to climb, and i would have to switch to keyboard and mouse for a time. there were also some interactables, like ladders or items, that wouldn't work properly with tank controls, or would be inaccessible without mouse and keyboard. the game can also be a little unstable at times: even though it didn't happen to me, softlocks are a known issue in the game. cutscenes would sometimes hang, and i got a crash at the very end. the best remedy was, unfortunately, to save often, grin, and bear it. while the game's design philosophy was sometimes outdated or at odds with itself, i still found this game to be a fantastic time. if you can look past the occasional bugginess or frustration, grim fandango's a real gem!

Skeleton puns, deadpan humour, film noir shenanigans... A fun and hilarious game in this dull genre. Spent a lot of hours on this game 15 years ago when I didn't have internet to check guides and solutions. Finally beat it and never got bored until the end. Bought it again because it must exist in my library.

It's like playing a Saturday morning cartoon made by Pixar, pre-Disney; it's got jokes for kids and jokes for adults. And playing it directly after Disco Elysium , the communism and union bits made me very happy.
