    The large cast of characters is unforgettable. Although for the most part they are skeletons in 40s garb, with mask-like faces that can be attributed to Day of the Dead festivities, their personalities render them as distinct and memorable as members of an extremely diverse cast from any fine film.

    Everything in the game reeks of excellence. The characters are good, the story is intriguing and the Land of the Dead is a wonderful place.

    This is what other adventure games only aspire to be. It is extremely well-written, well-executed, and above all, fun to play.

    If the Academy Awards opened themselves to video games, Grim Fandango would be looking at a sweep. Best acting: Grim Fandango. Best script: Grim Fandango. Best cinematography: Grim Fandango. The game’s creators wouldn't have to leave the podium.

    El juego es por lejos una de las mejores Aventuras Gráficas jamas creadas. Gran historia con excelente narrativa, personajes carismáticos con brillo propio, jugabilidad simple y directa y un apartado técnico asombroso.… Expand

    The characters are only moderately interesting, the puzzles are more annoying than fun, and the point-and-click mechanics are inflexible and unforgiving. Compared to almost any Sierra, LucasArts or TellTale Games adventure game, Grim Fandango isn't very good. It's mostly just frustrating.… Expand
