It tells a great story, but as a game it's not entirely pleasant. When I think about Grim Fandango, the first things that come to mind are the absolutely wonderful characters and the clever, heartwarming story. However, there is always a reluctance to play it again. You see, before you reach the end, you will have faced several frustrating, tedious puzzles with far-fetched solutions that often bring the experience to a halt. I wish I could give the game 5 stars, but even though it's a wonderful journey, there are just too many bumps on the road for that.
