@compfu It's set mostly in the afterlife and across multiple years of in-game time, so the visuals of the setting can be surreal and change a lot. It does borrow from Día de los Muertos as well as Art Deco imagery and film noir, and has some anachronistic stuff like computers (though still within that aesthetic). Manny (the "cartoony skeleton") is basically a Grim Reaper, or as it's presented in the game, a travel agent -- he books people their passage to their final destination, and how quick and luxurious that trip is has to do with how good they were in life. I suppose the graphics being a bit dated can't be helped when we're talking 3D from 1998! (Escape from Monkey Island re-used its engine, called GrimE, in 2000.)
