What Remains of Edith Finch

What Remains of Edith Finch is very similar in some respects to Giant Sparrow's previous game, The Unfinished Swan. It's more of an interactive narrative than a game in the traditional sense, with the player being guided through a story and being unable to fail through their actions.

It consists of a carefully weaving path detailing the stories of members of the Finch household through a series of flashbacks. Each is markedly different in style, reflecting the individuals whose story it's portraying. It's heartfelt, joyous and somewhat sad at the same time - an incredible experience.

I broke my ribs so had some time to play some games and increase my gamerscore...along with the Life Is Strange Series, I played this... It's not so much as a game as just a walkthrough of a house with you having to do certain things in order to progress (look through spyholes, open doors etc..) But it's the story, the so very sad story that compels you to continue... It's different and excellent but above all else, it's very, very, very sad. :(

The game is a collection of small stories describing the life of the Finch family and succeeds in telling them - each story has a different and a unique perspective on how it's told and keeps the player engaged as they wander around the abandoned house of Finches. It's one of the most incredible storytelling games I've ever seen and it's a game worth experiencing for yourself.

There are times when I game just tears at your heart strings and this game is one of them. The game (without giving any spoilers away) is a collection of short stories about the Finch family's life and death. It's a 2 hour masterpiece with great pacing and just the right length. If they tried to have a regular length game it would have suffered. The best part of the game besides the story is the variations on the gameplay from comic books to playing as animals it works. You are never bored. This game although short is a must have for anyone who loves stories in your game.

I'm a big fan of the story here. The game play is really intriguing and I've never really played anything like this before. I bought it on sale and would have paid full price now knowing what it was all about. I recommend this game to any casual gaming fans that aren't looking for combat in their games. Playing it is kind of sad but also relaxing so 10/10
