One of the most acclaimed adventure games of all time is now back, better than ever. Grim Fandango's epic story of four years in the life (or death) of Manny Calavera, travel agent to the dead, has been remastered to look, sound, and control even better than when it won GameSpot's Game of the Year award upon its original launch. Grim Fandango still stands as a classic of the genre, with unforgettable characters and unique combination of film noir and Mexican folklore.
Grim Fandango Remastered includes:
Repainted, hi-res character textures
New, dynamic lighting
Classic score re-recorded with a full live orchestra
I originally started this game on a Mac back in the day. I didn't realize at the time how much better the Mac version looked than the PC version. This remaster is a lot like what the original Mac version was like to play. I played this recently on a Win 10 machine and did not run into any bugs. I played it the entire way through without issues. This game is definitely worth playing whether it's new to you or nostalgic.
Just the best adventure game ever.Everything on its place and works well and creates the unforgettable experience.The soundtrack is awesome and my personal favourite.Remastered version itself has its own issues but the fact that its finally brought the game on modern services (the original was the tough nut launch on modern PC) is redeeming quality.
why are these old windows 95/98 games remastered not to run on xp? I know a lot of fellow gamers still use xp because of it's backwards compatibility. Phoenix got it right when they redid Gabriel Knight 20th anniversary (way to go Jane J!) Almost aIl the remakes exclude xp. This was a great game 20 years ago, one of the best plots and characters and if I want to play I guess I'll have to go back to the original. Lastly, why does it take 3.5 Gigs to remaster a 50 to 100 meg game?
Unfortunately, I receive an OpenGL not available message. I have tried a number of solutions online, but none have worked. Unfortunate, but I am giving it a three based on previous play through in my childhood. It would be nice to revist this game and hopefully an update will remedy this issue soon.
