Grim Fandango was an adventure game made by Lucas Arts back in the late 90s. Apart from having one of the best video game OST it also was revered as an amazing puzzle game. Then in 2015 a Remaster of Grim Fandango came out made by Double Fine Studios which is the version I did a review of. As a bit of a disclaimer my Grim Fandango playthrough was cut a bit short because I got soflocked but I still was able to watch the ending. This game was an amazing achievement in the history of adventure games but just how well does it hold up 23 years later.
