Better have an obscure mind-puzzle than no puzzle for the obscure minded player of today’s games.

Hooray for those ever vigilant LucasArts legal eagles! What will those cheeky scamps do next?! To protect this document, please restrict your tears of joy to this box -> [] Thank you!

@Grandstone
Have you tried to open the pdf with XPS Viewer?

Surely someone else has had the endless-gray-pages problem with PDF Vista. Reading about the document is nice, but I'd really love to actually read it.

I love that there are jokes in the design document; not so that they could go in the game – just to keep the reader entertained.

“Bah, when I tried playing Grim Fandango on my XP system it crashed when I started Year 4 (a problem switching to the second disc I think)”. I tried a load of stuff but eventually reluctantly gave up”

Same here.

“If you have a problem with the game, download the Grim fandango Launcher at: http://www.grimfandango.net/?page=launcher”

Woohoo!

” I still suffer occasional night terrors about the cat racing puzzle.

I can’t even remember that one. I must have repressed that memory.

Hooray for Grim Fandango!

Actually, that’s a lie. I’d use my own money.

It would be nice if a collectors edition came, steel book case, large hard cover art book of all the locations in the game, an audio CD of the soundtrack, and a Manny-as-the-Reaper figurine. I’d happy part with $200 for it as it’s just an amazing game, an amazing experience. Joyous.

So, ace like the BioShock collectors edition, but with a good game included for added value (oooh controversy).

I desperately DO NOT want a sequel to Grim Fandango, it’s story and it’s conclusion are perfection, however, I do want a HD re-mastering of the existing game, with a few of these intriguing removed puzzles re-included.

I’d pay in actual money for it. Lots. Other peoples, obv.

It’s been released as part of LucasArts desperate attempts to pimp every last coin out of the adventure gaming purse, in a budget title range, along with Sam and Max, DotT and the Monkey Island games. Check your local games store bargain bin and cross your fingers. Very worth picking up, I grabbed it earlier this year and fell in love with it all over again, especially Rubacava which is heartbreakingly beautiful.
