A highly influential game for both narrative and point-and-click genres.
With charming characters, memorable quotes and excellent-crafted storytelling, this game offers an amazing experience that back in the day not only demonstrated that videogames are not a child-related media but also that they can convey powerful messages and tell stories worth telling.
While it has some level design flaws during some parts that go against the prevailing simplicity of the point-and-click gameplay, Grim Fandango is widely considered a masterpiece and a cult classic. I don't know if it's one, but I can confidently say that it's a highly enjoyable game and I'm very happy that I had the chance of playing it as a kid.
