Simply download and install ResidualVM, follow the instructions for setting up Grim Fandango, and you are all set.
To play the original release of Grim Fandango on a modern computer, you need ResidualVM and the original Grim Fandango discs. And people who can't track down a copy of the original game are in luck-a remastered version of Grim Fandango is coming soon. Because of the Day of the Dead theme, I usually pull this game out every Halloween for a trip down memory lane. Memorable characters and excellent puzzles make this game worth playing and replaying. If you have not played Grim Fandango before, you really should track down a copy and play it. Visit the land of the dead in this iconic adventure game from LucasArts. These classic games are playable on modern operating systems, including Linux, by using open source tools: DOSBox, ResidualVM, and ScummVM.Īnd since it is Open Food Week here on, I will be pairing each game with a recipe from Mystery Manor, a site that covers computer adventure games! It's been a family favorite for many years. I thought I would reminisce and revisit of some classic computer adventure games that I played with family and friends when I was younger. The holiday season is upon us and that means family, friends, fond memories, and food.
