Grim Fandango is an amazing story about life and death and love...

... Built upon an engine where the protagonist walks around at sloth speed. Manny Calavaras just sashays along, and there's no way to speed his ass up. I wish you could hit escape or something to skip him walking in and out of scenes, but nope! I'm forced to watch him drag his feet from location to location.

But the most touching parts of the story stick with me after 20 years.
