Masterpiece

The best game I've ever played in my life. Story, characters, gameplay, graphics amazing too. Everything amazing... I'm speechless.

A true masterpiece. I'm definitely looking forward to the sequel I didn't know Lucas Arts had such a masterpiece in their portfolio. The voice actors did an amazing job as well. The story was so amazing and yet so credible somehow. Just...a perfect combination of everything that will blow your mind.

A must play, must continue, must buy game

I'm so happy I've discovered it by accident.

I showed it to all my friends, everyone liked it

Waiting for the sequel!

What a cracking game!!!!!!

I love this game it's art style is amazing and the voice acting is superb, I also LOVE the setting musical score and everything else plus it's also really nice to have it remastered!!!!!! Overall the controls feel really intuitive and it is just loads of fun. My only gripe is that the controls that should usually be in the manual obviously aren't there so you have to work that out but it really isn't that hard to work them out and after about 50 minutes I had it all worked out and was well underway. (Ps if you get stuck on any of the puzzles check IGN that's where I went!!!!) so overall this game is well worth the money and it isn't that expensive!!!! A MUST PLAY!!!!!!

Superb!

Let me start by saying that it takes a lot for me to give a 10/10 rating! Rarely anything surpasses my expectations but by god this did.

I'm still in awe, this game is a masterpiece!

I remembered playing this game on PC years ago and was a little sceptic when I found out a remastered edition was coming out for ps4, I initially decided against playing it because i thought it wouldn't have been like I remembered, and it wasn't, it was much better. The graphics superseded the original by far especially when the game gave you the opportunity to switch to the original rendition of the game, but what really made Grim Fandango so damn good was the fact they didn't change a single thing, I played the whole game with tank controls to get the ultimate feel, I loved the voice acting, the puzzles were smart and engaging and the story was PHENOMENAL! Maybe I liked the fact the 90s neo-noir feel was still intact and undamaged, maybe I fell in love with the nostalgia, nevertheless it was a beautiful game which I will be recommending to everyone.

Grim Fandango: 10/10

As much as I love the game, I wouldn't play it again.

-Style is amazingly iconic. -Characters are interesting. -Really nailed the noir feeling. -Entertaining world and world building. -Fun and interesting puzzles. -Hilarious.

-Puzzles are honestly fairly hard. I had to look up what to do most of the time. -I think the story was not only pretty boring, it had too many time skips and held out for too long. I think the pacing could've been improved as well.
