This website looks screwed up on Opera. What gives?
Unfortunately, Opera seems to render the site incorrectly. Work is underway to completely remedy these problems, but as it involves a lot of recoding on the website it may take around a month (as of August 12th, 2004) due to other projects on the site demanding completion.
This game sounds radical. Where can I try it out?
Although the game is available for next to nothing these days, if you really do need to test it out before buying then simply head over to the demo section.
Okay, I really need to buy this game. Where?
Whilst not as easy to find as it once was, a recent rerelease in the United Kingdom (possibly elsewhere, but this hasn't been clarified) has made it somewhat easier. If you can't obtain it in a local store, you can order it directly from either LucasArts or Amazon.
Is anything special required to enjoy Grim Fandango?
No. Grim Fandango has a very light set of system requirements, which can be viewed here.
I'm having a technical issue with the game. Any suggestions?
The first thing you should do is download the patch. You can view more information plus the download itself in the patch section. If this doesn't resolve your difficulties, have a read through our extensive support forum. If you still cannot end your troubles, feel free to register a free LucasForums account and post in our support forum.
Is there any way to make this game look better?
The only noticable change that you can make to the game's graphics is to simply enable hardware acceleration in the game's options. This will utilise your graphics card in powering the visuals, so textures are far smoother and such.
Are there any additional things for Grim Fandango that I should know about?
Bgbennyboy has programmed an excellent launcher utility which replaces the original. Read all about it here.
