	Grim Fandango - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Grim Fandango is a graphical adventure computer game released by LucasArts in 1998, the title derived from a line of a mournful poem read by one of the characters in the game.
		Grim Fandango was lauded by critics and adventure game fans as one of the best games in the genre and beyond (see Reactions section), but was not a commercial success.
		Grim Fandango was a bold attempt by LucasArts to rejuvenate the graphical adventure genre, which by 1998 was in a terminal decline, compounded by the rise in fashionability of visually more novel and increasingly impressive games, such as first-person shooters.

	, ergo we can't include 'quandaryheader.html' like we do elsewhere -->
		Grim Fandango has it all as the story unfolds with humour and pathos in a classic 'film noir' setting based on an Aztec belief in the departed soul's four year journey to another, and hopefully, better world.
		Grim Fandango is an adventure game and when I play an adventure I like to concentrate on the puzzles, not on endlessly moving my character around as if it is an action game.
		It seems that LucasArts have their hearts set on capturing some of the console market with Grim Fandango, but possibly this could be at the expense of some of their traditional PC adventure game fans...

		As those who saw the announcement up at the top of the page are aware, the Grim Fandango Network is due to be fully renovated during 2006, turning it into more of a museum rather than the news-centric website that it's always been.
		One final goodie of note is that every Grim Fandango site possible has been fully archived, with the exception of their downloads (eg:.zip,.mp3, etc).
		Incredibly, the total absence of any Grim Fandango news ever has been temporarily remedied with the advent of a new videogame remix album.

	Grim Fandango review
		Grim Fandango pulls the gamer into one of the most compelling, unusual and creative worlds in gaming.
		Grim Fandango follows the exploits of Manny Calavera, who has a highly specialized, though low-tech job in the Land of the Dead.
		This was less of a problem in Grim than in EMI or "Odyssey: The Search for Ulysses" (perhaps because most of the barriers in Grim were pretty obvious).

		There are many moments like this where LucasArts' 1998 noir adventure Grim Fandango bares an intangible essence that many current titles lack in their fleshy flash of CGI glory and rehashed, recycled game ethics.
		Where Grim Fandango manages to up the ante is the way it sneaks up to you with these motifs, casually telling you to look the other way, then poking you in the eye when you turn back.
		Grim Fandango works on the simplest levels, but it's on those bare bones it excels to the point where many other games after it seemed so much more empty.

		One of the old saws about GAGs is that Grim Fandango is the final nail in the coffin of the genre.
		There are plenty of reasons why Grim Fandango should be played today, and I doubt seriously it will ever be forgotten.

		Grim Fandango is a 3D graphic adventure game brought to us by Lucas Arts, those lovely people of Star Wars fame.
		It was released upon an unsuspecting public back in 1998 in PC version (which is the one I am going to be rambling on about) and later made an appearance on the Playstation1 (which I have yet to find a copy of to play, so sorry, no comparisons here).

		About The Game: Grim Fandango remains as the last non-sequel, non-franchise graphic adventure released by LucasArts to this day.
		Although it was a major critical success, winning several awards and high scores across the board, Grim was a financial flop.
		Whatever the cause, Grim Fandango unfortunately has the dubious honor of being "the game that scared LucasArts off of the adventure genre" in some circles.

	IGN: Grim Fandango Review
		Now, with Grim Fandango, the company has brought all of these features together in one title that stands miles above any yet released in the genre.
		This incorporation of character into what would normally be inanimate objects is furthered by Grim Fandango's fantastic soundtrack and voice acting.
		A far cry from the 'hey, grab that secretary' feel of many adventure titles, Grim Fandango uses dozens of different voice actors to make sure that every character in the game has not only a unique voice, but also one that supports the specific character concept perfectly.

		I really can't say enough about this game; the art direction is phenomenal, the voice acting is incredible, the soundtrack is superb, it's hilarious and it's genuinely intriguing.
		Unlike many PC adventure games, Grim Fandango will keep you coming back repeatedly to see all the things you might have missed in previous playings thanks to the huge attention to detail.

		But getting there is half the fun, and you can either go economy or first-class luxury cruise (with exotic ports-of-call along the way for great things like cat racing!), depending on what you have 'earned' in life.
		You are one of the combination Grim Reaper and Travel Agents who work for the Department of Death (the DOD) in El Marrow, selling tickets to the afterlife.
		But you work on commission, so what you earn depends on how many luxury tickets you can sell and lately you notice that you're not being given any of the 'good' clients.
