Grim Fandango Remastered App Reviews

The dialogue and the premise are intriguing, but the game crashes on my Macbook Air constantly, maybe every five minutes of game time. Makes it too frustrating to continue, and, of course, no refunds. If I could return it I would and try to see if it works better on the iPad.

I wanted to get this back in the day, but I couldn’t afford it. Now that I’m rich (that’s rich), I sprung for this classic. One of the features that I never thought about, was the developer’s commentary. There is some excellent backstory about the game, that provides insight int othe game industry in 1998, and now. Also, the transcript gives you the titles of characters, as well as clear dialogue. Helpful, as it is interesting.

I have been looking for another good aventure game since the Longest Journey. I tried playing this on my PC but I never got it to work since the game was too old. Sooo happy they re-made this. Thanks.

My sons and I played this extensively in the 90s. They will still recite lines from it. I was glad to see it offered as a remastered version for Mac. Besides all the positive comments below about the story line, cleverness, charm of the characters, and artwork, do not miss the music. It is a real soundtrack—composed and performed by actual real, live, talented musicians—not all electronic—and I actually own the soundtrack as well. Overture and everything—pay attention to it as you play—it makes the enjoyment of this enchanting game even better.

I bought this game since it had many positive reviews. However after half an hour of gameplay, I realized that it did not stand the time. It was probably a nice game for the ‘90s*, but today I would say that it’s boring and incoherent: there are mistakes in the gameplay, sometimes there is no logic in the puzzles and it gives you the constant feeling that the characters are waiting for you to do just the right thing to move on with the story… I would look for somewhere else to spend 5$ * in fact many of the positive reviews come from people who played this game back in the days
