Step into tragedy in What Remains of Edith Finch, Giant Sparrow’s 2017 narrative gem that stormed PC, PS4, and Xbox One on April 25, 2017, hit Switch in 2019, PS5/Xbox Series X|S in 2021, and still echoes in 2025 with over 1 million copies sold by 2020! This isn’t just a walking sim—it’s a gut-wrenching anthology where you, Edith Finch, unravel your cursed family’s fates, diving into vignettes of love, loss, and death in a sprawling, eerie Washington manor. With awards galore and a legacy tied to The Unfinished Swan, Edith Finch is storytelling gold!
Wander, interact, mourn—swing as toddler Molly, grind meat as cannery worker Lewis, or soar as baby Gregory’s bath toys in Unreal Engine 4’s vivid tapestry, hitting 4K/60 FPS on PS5/Xbox Series X|S (Switch at 30 FPS). Explore the Finch house—towers of sealed rooms, hidden passages—clocking 2-3 hours solo, each tale a mini-game of heartbreak from kite-flying crashes to comic-book horrors. No multiplayer, no DLC—just a tight, unforgettable plunge—every object a memory, every death a masterpiece.
The vibe? Gothic whimsy meets crushing fate—think creaking floors, ocean whispers, and a Jeff Russo OST that swells with tender dread. The story’s a family dirge—Edith’s lineage unravels, curses bind—voiced with soul by Valerie Rose Lohman and a stellar cast. Solo only, no co-op—critics (88 on Metacritic) and X posts worship its emotion, though some shrug at short runtime or “gameplay” lite. Steam’s Spring Sale (ends March 20, 2025) slashes it 75% to $4.99—What Remains of Edith Finch dares you to face the past. Open the book and feel the weight!
