Pretty But Messy
Never having played the game when it first came out, I get to actually review the game without nostalgia goggles. Grim Fandango is everything a 90s game was; imaginative story with frustrating gameplay. The remastered graphics make GF pleasant to look at, the world design is great, and the voice-acting as well as the overall sound design is very good, complementing the already engaging story that contains some memorable characters If you really think about it, the game is very short except when you play it for the first time without any walkthrough guides. You could technically finish it within a couple of hours but that first time will be torturous. The puzzles are awful, straight up. Half the time you wouldn't know where to go or what to do as the game rarely if ever gives you any clues. This is however, par for the course for most of point-and-click adventures from the 90s, and because of this, a lot of patience is required for hours upon hours of trial and error. In retrospect, most of us just didn't think any of it because we were kids with too much time on our hands but for today, this kind of puzzle mechanic is very very annoying. And you WILL be annoyed if you attempt to play this game first time without a guide. Was it fun for me though? Yeah~ kind of~ Though, I think it's fair to say that games such as these have become dated and really, does not stand the test of time very well.
