What Remains of Edith Finch

Released2017
What Remains of Edith Finch is a collection of short stories about a cursed family in Washington State. Each story offers a chance to experience the life of a different family member with stories ranging from the early 1900s to the present day. The gameplay and tone of the stories are as varied as the family members themselves. The only constants are that each is played from a first-person perspective and that each story ends with that family member's death. It's a game about what it feels like to be humbled and astonished by the vast and unknowable world around us. You'll follow Edith Finch as she explores the history of her family and tries to figure out why she's the last Finch left alive.

About This Game

What Remains of Edith Finch is a collection of short stories about a cursed family in Washington State. Each tale lets you step into the life of a different family member, spanning from the early 1900s all the way to the present day, and the gameplay and mood shift as dramatically as the relatives themselves. Only two things stay constant: every story is played in first person, and every one ends with that family member's death. It is a game about the feeling of being humbled and awestruck by the vast, unknowable world around us — and you will follow Edith Finch herself as she pieces together her family's history and tries to understand why she is the last Finch left alive.
