The apex of the adventure game genre, which plummeted shortly after this release. I love the Monkey Island series as well, but this, wow, I CAN'T WAIT for them to offer Grim Fandango in teslas.
I saw some concept art from the special features of the remaster edition on my Mac and it's from 1996 as the start of it's development. As for the following year, they started rendering in 1997.
"Well what do you know, Sal had a ticket all along....." The deepest moment in the game when you realize just what a true hero Sal was, he could have left but he didn't
@@HUNDOLOS It's kinda strange how the gatekeeper checks the tickets at the *end* of the line though. There is somewhat of a plothole in the fact that they make such a huge deal out of these double n tickets and "your fate can't be bought", but you can just as well walk through the whole land of the dead and still get to the 9th underworld without a ticket. The fact of the matter is that the double n ticket is supposed to be a shortcut, but the narrative down the road becomes more like it's the only way out. Hector even said something about hoarding tickets to get out of the LoD because he'd been very naughty, but by the Bruno and Chepito logic he could have just walked out too. Unless they meant for the 4 year journey to be some kind of purgatory, but it didn't really seem like it.
@@Gonken88 i know this is a month old but I think the 4 year walk is suppose to be the punishment for bad people and if they try to skip their punishment they end up with a much worse fate but if they walked there and endured their punishment then they'd be allowed to enter the land of eternal rest. Also with Hector hoarding the tickets I think he might've knew about the train sending bad people who ride it to hell so he assumed If he had enough of them it could fool the train or he might've not knew how the whole system worked.
manny calavera is an absolute icon. a short king. there's just something about tony plana's voice... totally perfect. great for the comedy, great for the poignant moments. LOVE
@@acouragefann I think he was referring more to the game's formula rather than literally clicking. Y'know, the cryptic puzzles and the lack of action. I've heard that's the main reason why people hate this genre, unfortunately.
@@jimmy-rm3cl dude, the puzzles made zero sense. on top of that you had to stand in a specific spot for them to work. I gave up at the beaver damn and ended up watching it as a movie on youtube.
@@friedpicklezzz I was willing to forgive the controls, but the puzzles!!! i had to look everything up from the very start. like getting 5 different balloons from the clown. what the hell?
One of my favourite games ever made . Soo many memories sitting beside my older brother at the computer playing this 🙏 “ Love ? Love is for the living Sal “
I can still remember hearing, and even smelling Rubacava when I was a kid. Soundtrack, characters, artwork, dialogues. What a precious thing it was to experience this through a tube monitor. Ah.
Oh wow some of the dialogues I had no idea even existed and I’ve played this game to the death before! This video has definitely become my favorite way to re-live my favorite game, thank you!
they did a GREAT job on story, dialogues and characters in this game. a true masterpiece. I have played it looong time ago and seeing it makes me wanna play it again :)
@Runescaping The dev commentary on the remaster version has them speculating what actually happens after you get sprouted and they theorize that sprouted souls get reincarnated back to the world of the living.
I was 11 when this came out and I played it, and damn: I loved it at the time, but there was so much depth and humor that I missed, and I’m so glad the remaster happened so that I could really experience everything that the writers and game designers put into this work of art. What’s really amazing is that this childhood favorite of mine, unlike so many other things I liked at the time, only appeared even richer when I relived it as an adult. It seems like Grim Fandango ended up being the send-off for the adventure game genre, which for sure is kind of sad but would be much more sad if it hadn’t been sent off by the most perfect game the genre had ever seen.
yep. Back in the day I was like "Why is this a +18 game? it is so boring, they only talk..." (I didnt knew english back in the day and point'n click wasnt my thing) but OOOOH BOY HOW THINGS CHANGED. This is a atemporal masterpiece and I'm glad that I can look to younger Tiago and say: You are wrong kid, this game is guuuud!
@@rons2285 While so I think we will see what happens when Lord Hater goes to Earth so that he can bring Charles F Muntz back to life in a incarnation of being a skeleton for his new role as the captain of the Hater Empire who will eventually take over the Land of the Dead, and then he can use his new improved Olivia 1 with the new technology to make the blimp as the Cyclonian battle cruiser.
Thank you for the walkthrough. There was definitely times where I was like, "How was I supposed to figure that out?" Your video was of great use. Great game!
During my first semesters at uni I shared a large house when five other students - one dude was studying SW Engineering like me and we would wind down after the long days by playing this game together. He would sit at his computer, I would sit in his vintage rocking chair that his grandparents had given him and we would have a cup of coffee or a beer or two and see what kind of trouble we could get Manny into. Just chill, enjoy the ambience of the game, the phenomenal music and so many laughs. Good times indeed!
I’ve played games for 15 years, over 200 games I have played or completed. Out of all those games, this story is the most captivating and beautiful story I’ve ever sat through. It’s not even nostalgia because I just played this game a week ago. The story is rich and the plot is amazing 10/10 best story in a video game ever
Ahh. From a more ambitious time in gaming, when games still had to ship feature-complete and more than two (non-indie) developers were making an honest effort in the gaming biz. Top notch writing, voice acting, and presentation of primitive 3D; proof that you can make something more timeless and memorable with creative style more than high tech graphics. What the Hell has happened? Where did we go wrong to fall so far from stuff like this; from a diverse market. You couldn't make a game like Grim Fandango today; it'd be all quick time events and written by political hacks, assuming it'd get financed at all...probably not, for not being hyper-monetizable with lootboxes and micro-transactions or any other get-rich scheme. The art isn't dead, but we're not going to see another era of gaming like the one that gave us Grim Fandango for a long time, I think.
still alive and well with indie games. before you say that they’re not mainstream, neither was GF. plus, the newest god of war is a testament that large studios can still do it right...
The second year is kind of the peak of the game. The amount of things to do, places to go and problems to solve in Rubacava is completely unmatched by the rest of the game.
As a child, this game gave me such an existential crisis i stopped blindly believing in god and had to rediscover my sense of spirituality over the course of 10 years. It provoked me to question things in a way that asks for reinforcement of concepts before acceptance as fact, an important lesson for a nine-year-old. It is LITERALLY a piece of art, a masterpiece at that. I know most of the crowd who advocates that video games and code arent art are elderly at this point, but this very game gave me a deep emotional experience that had a domino effect lasting my entire life! If thats not art, then whatever it is should be considered just as good.
I think that the thing that made this game so incredible all those years back, is that every time you solved a puzzle or solved a problem, you would be rewarded with fantastic dialog and some wild visuals at key moments. I remember just exploring the world, following every dialog tree, just for the entertainment of the voiceovers! I beat it ages ago, so it was nice to sit back and enjoy the storyline without beating my head against a wall trying to figure out how to progress.
Dude thank you for your efforts. I appreciate so much that you made everything efficient yet took the time for both funny and poignant moments. Just a great playthrough
2:01:35 If Anyone knows the song playing here, let me know. Update: It turned out this sound bit was only an elongated sound effect, as opposed to part of the official soundtrack.
The voices in english are good, even still imitating the accents of the characters, but I LOVE Manny's voice in spanish, is the most accurate to me, just beautiful.
I bought this game in the nineties when I was a child. It was a difficult game. I had to find a scenario to solve its puzzles from the Internet, and then I enjoyed playing it. It is the kind of game that takes you into its own, strange world through music, characters, and wonderful dialogues. It is a unique experience and a beautiful memory. I still have its CDs, & i still don't know the meaning of its title, Grim Fandango 😅
Our generation had such awesome video games! Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Commander Keen, Blake Stone, X-Wing, Star Wars Dark Forces, Transport Tycoon, Duke Nukem 3D, and many more!
3:32:38 Idk how they carried him- 1:03:24 The way Manny screamed- XD 1:09:34 Manny Screaming 2.0 2:10:37 Amazing Laugh. 3:12:48 He had enough- 15:28 Me When Eye Contact: 24:02 Manny, don't- 21:27 Ouch- 2:30:01 This is funny on the way he punched him- 4:17:31 Manny screaming 3.0 12:22 I love how amused Manny is.
I think Tim Schafer should do a horror point and click game. You remember the level in Monkey Island 1 when you are in hell, searching for LeChuck's ship? With ears and noses stickning out of the grund. It makes me think of Hellraiser. Wouldn't that be something? Tim Schafer's Hellraiser.
How I found this game 1. Watch frog man play space game of little funny green people 2. Watch one little fun green person die by collision with water at twice the speed of sound. RIP Jebadiah 3. Listen to song (9th heaven) 4. Spend 4 months trying to find it 5. Get comment from random person that it is 9th heaven 6. Listen to song 7. Find game 8. Watch game for 3 days 9. Game good 10. Enjoy music more
2:12:04 Barry: ya it was. But am stuck as a jackhammer while am Stuck in this cell, hurry manny. This uncontrollable and nonstop shaking is driving me insane.
I played this game on my dads pc when I was a little kid. Never got past year 1 because of how esoteric the 90s adventure game puzzles could be. Fantastic game.😂
@@CoolGobyFishI remember playing it when it was released back in the late 90's......when there was no internet. I somehow managed to complete the game without any assistance from any walkthrough......it took a LONG time but back then this game absolutely consumed me. What a game..... movies have a hard time coming up with a script as crisp and dialogues as sharp as Grim Fandango. Truly a one of a kind game.
@@main_stream_media_is_a_joke You are right on the story and art style. But the puzzle don't make sense. I gave and watched it as a movie. It's a terrible game (game playwise)
I'm actually not always a fan of the new score (it sort of softens my favourite moment in all of video games around 1:14:08), but dang those horns at 2:41:48
At 54:20 Domino calls Manny "Agent Calevera", how did he know that Manny had joined the LSA and became an Agent?? That literally just happened. Hector assumes that Manny is still in the basement, and Manny never became an Agent until after he was let out by Salvador. So if they knew about him becoming an agent how the hell did they not know about him escaping the basement?? Maybe Dom meant Sales Agent Calavera. But still it's weird because no one ever refers to either Domino or Manny again as Agent.
"Nobody knows what's at the end of the line, so you may as well enjoy the trip" That quote at the end gave me some serious feels
I got goosebumps!
This isn't just a game, but a deep experience. One that sticks with you forever.
Indeed! Still feeling it
This was a piece of art. Just think that it was developed in 1998, I still remember playing this game as a kid and it has became a lifetime memory.
Ok
so it’s a real good game i’m thinking about downloading it
The apex of the adventure game genre, which plummeted shortly after this release. I love the Monkey Island series as well, but this, wow, I CAN'T WAIT for them to offer Grim Fandango in teslas.

3D gaming had advanced tremendously by 1998. Half-Life was 1998.
This has to be some of the best dialog ever written
And the voice acting... 10/10
When people cared.
“It’s a hole punch”
"I don't really want to mess up my blade"
- Manny the funny Mexican skeliton
"That's the second best video game dialogue I've ever seen"
"Well what do you know, Sal had a ticket all along....."
The deepest moment in the game when you realize just what a true hero Sal was, he could have left but he didn't
Uhm he got his ticket stolen and got stuck as a salesagent at the dod, how the hell could he have left?
@@Gonken88 Yeah exactly. And after he realized something is wrong with dod, he left and formed the resistance.
@@Gonken88 Could have gone the long way, like Bruno or Chepito. They end up in the 9th underworld too, just not via the train.

"to the death"
Nice unintentional pun
One purpose, one skill, one desire - TO DRIIIIVE. Kills me every time.

18:32 I just started playing this game and this legitimately spooked me. Had to double-take because I thought I was seeing this wrong.
That kid pugsy sounds familiar. Alittle like pajama sam for some reason.
I had the pleaure of watching my dad play this on PC in the early 2000s. Staying up on weekends just us playing this. Best memories ever🩵
They need to make a sequel. Seriously.
But in the same style
Some things are beautiful because there's only one of them.
No
2:12:04 Barry: ya it was. But am stuck as a jackhammer while am
Stuck in this cell, hurry manny. This uncontrollable and nonstop shaking is driving me insane.
So underrated
I played this game on my dads pc when I was a little kid. Never got past year 1 because of how esoteric the 90s adventure game puzzles could be. Fantastic game.😂
i think it's the only puzzle game where I had to look things up at the very beginning. the rest I got most of them at least.
@@CoolGobyFishI remember playing it when it was released back in the late 90's......when there was no internet.
I somehow managed to complete the game without any assistance from any walkthrough......it took a LONG time but back then this game absolutely consumed me.
What a game..... movies have a hard time coming up with a script as crisp and dialogues as sharp as Grim Fandango.
Truly a one of a kind game.
@@main_stream_media_is_a_joke You are right on the story and art style. But the puzzle don't make sense. I gave and watched it as a movie. It's a terrible game (game playwise)
This game doesn't need a sequel. It needs something else entirely set in it's universe, Manny's story is basically done
I'm actually not always a fan of the new score (it sort of softens my favourite moment in all of video games around 1:14:08), but dang those horns at 2:41:48
They didn't change the music, it's all the original 😂.

I cried at the end of this game back in the day, Love Glottis
The Event in 1:57:37 wont come Lupe is not talking to me
sorry for my english by the way
You have to speak to Lola at the blue casket first. Lol who am I kidding you have probably solved it after 11 months
At 54:20 Domino calls Manny "Agent Calevera", how did he know that Manny had joined the LSA and became an Agent?? That literally just happened. Hector assumes that Manny is still in the basement, and Manny never became an Agent until after he was let out by Salvador. So if they knew about him becoming an agent how the hell did they not know about him escaping the basement?? Maybe Dom meant Sales Agent Calavera. But still it's weird because no one ever refers to either Domino or Manny again as Agent.
Yeah im pretty sure its just meant as Sales agent
I love the mouth animations.
