Grim Fandango features dialogue and characters that revel in dark humor. As the game’s art style and characters are heavily inspired by Día de Los Muertos, there are also tracks that blend in traditional Mexican instruments. Squealing trumpets, ominous bass, playful clarinets and sultry saxophones all work wonderfully to tell a tale of corruption, greed and one reaper who refuses to let things go. Since the game is filled with more shady characters and shadier lighting than a classic noir film, composer Peter McConnell relied on a variety of jazzy instruments to help tell the story. It follows professional Grim Reaper Manny Calavera after he discovers the company he works for is stealing premium travel packages from their clients that would help them reach the afterlife. Grim Fandango is an adventure game that takes players through the seedy underbelly of purgatory.
