About the Game

Something's rotten in the land of the dead, and you're being played for a sucker. Meet Manny Calavera, travel agent at the Department of Death. He sells luxury packages to souls on their four-year journey to eternal rest. But there's trouble in paradise. Help Manny untangle himself from a conspiracy that threatens his very salvation.

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.

Remastered version includes

  • Repainted, hi-res character textures
  • New, dynamic lighting
  • Classic score re-recorded with a full live orchestra
  • Over 2 hours of exclusive developer commentary
  • Concept art browser

**Grim Fandango: A Timeless Tale of the Afterlife** Grim Fandango remains one of the most charming and narratively rich adventures ever crafted. Set in a noir-inspired Land of the Dead, its storyline is a masterclass in character-driven storytelling—equal parts mystery, romance, and existential comedy. Manny Calavera’s journey from travel agent to reluctant hero is packed with wit, heart, and unforgettable moments. Visually, the game’s cartoony graphics—equal parts Day of the Dead and 1940s pulp—still hold up with their stylized flair. The remastered edition adds polish without losing the original charm. Voice acting is top-tier, with Tony Plana’s performance as Manny delivering dry humour and pathos in equal measure. The overall presentation, from jazzy score to cinematic framing, feels like a love letter to classic film and Mexican folklore. That said, the tank controls are a relic best left in the grave. Navigating tight spaces with keyboard alone can feel like ...

I don't have the brain for these really out-there puzzles, but the charm and charisma of this game made it a really nice ride on the number 9.

Funny dialogue, multiple characters to speak with, good story and overall good game. Not as great as expected, because there are many major bugs despite the remaster and at some points the puzzles are nearly impossible to understand. I still recommend though, because it has some moments of brilliance.

Time Waste product. The game wastes too much time of the player by forcing them to go in circles and walking long repetitive distances inside the world. Not possible to progress without watching a walkthrough and the creaters call this a game !! Can't say its a game even. Save your money and spend in something fun.

This is one of my favorite interactive fiction / point-and-click adventures. It still holds up well despite its age for clever puzzles, great humor, and fun characters.
