so atmospheric graphic, touching plot, interesting game-play and stunning (read again: it is really stunning!!) music. what gives chills especially is that the game reminds of the consideration of some aspects like time-flying.

i am still crying btw.
and i am traumatized now. but worth it. overall astounding game. 10000/10

I found the second half of the game (experience?) most interesting. Its first half is sort of meh.
I really like Lewis' story, the alienation in the mechanized world, illustrated beautifully.
The ending was also wonderful. Even the way the credits roll is crafted thoughtfully and with love.

A truly incredible work of art. Will take less than 2 hours of your time to play through, but will stay with you forever.

Appears to have an interesting story, interesting environment to explore and decipher. However i had so much motionsickness i could ot continue.

this game kinda changed my life

A fun and clever story-heavy walking sim type game that is about 2 hours long. I had a lot of fun with it.

I must admit that I find the idea of exploring abandoned houses, rummaging through the belongings of the deceased, and searching for hidden treasures fascinating. However, What Remains of Edith Finch is a vastly different experience. The game follows Edith as she explores her childhood home, but instead of delving into the mysterious and dusty treasures that lie within, she simply walks through the rooms, occasionally stopping to reminisce about her family's past.

The game's storytelling is presented through a series of trippy flashbacks from the deceased family members, which unfortunately lead to nowhere and fail to evoke any sense of mystery or intrigue. The overall message of the game feels like Edith simply talking about something I couldn't find much investment in during the brief playtime offered. I wouldn't say that this is much of a game, as it feels more like a visual novel or short film that is dragged on by slow-paced commentary attempting to evoke nostalgia or melancholy. Unfortunately, this didn't work for me, as I had no real connection to the characters due to the lack of time actually bonding with them.

While What Remains of Edith Finch isn't horrible, it's also not particularly interesting or fun to play. I wouldn't recommend spending $20 on this game, especially considering the extremely short playtime – just two hours, and that would have been even less if I hadn't encountered a bug that soft locked me at the first level, forcing me to restart it.

Not a bad game, but definitely overrated and overpriced

stuck with frog in the bathtub

cool setting and concept. But there really wasn't any actual game play. It was a bit like an animated audiobook. I think incorporating more puzzles or only providing pieces of the stories and letting the player put them together would have made it a more satisfying play through.
